Fair warning, more than likely, this will not be what you were expecting it to be, and that’s not a bad thing. I was going in expecting a pretty cut-and-dry “sex comedy.” I got a timely look into the lives of two people from entirely different worlds. Two people that had more in common than what anyone (including themselves) would ever have thought.<\/p>\n

So without spoiling anything, I will say that this is not a kid-friendly movie; I know many R-rated films can blur the line (see more in the mild spoiler section below.) I do think that this was needed for the movie, though! This was crucial for the story being told and was done surprisingly tastefully.<\/p>\n

With just a two-person cast (for the most part,) I was engaged in the story from start to finish. Both Emma Thompson and Daryl McCormack (PEAKY BLINDERS) were exceptional in their roles. I loved seeing the growth they had throughout the film and the connection the two made that I wasn’t expecting. I haven’t seen McCormack in much, but I hope to see him get more roles after this. <\/p>\n

Simply, the film is probably a little more drama than comedy, but it was done in such a way that it was still enjoyable thanks to the comedic moments being placed throughout the film with some great timing in the script. Overall, it was just a delightful story that let you step into these moments in these two strangers' lives and see a different side of the story that we may all otherwise miss.<\/p>\n

MILD SPOILER:
\nThis film has a sensitive subject matter as well as having full-on nudity and sexual acts as well. I only mention this because I was shocked by it. Honestly, I assumed most of what was on Hulu was more family-friendly, and this was a wake-up call for me.<\/p>\n
