“Isn’t It Romantic” Is the Perfect Date Night Rental

Published

on

Overview: Natalie is disconnected from love as she’s convinced that men don’t “see” her because she’s not a beautiful swimsuit model. This anti-rom- com is about the silliness of “chick flicks” and the power of finding love when you learn to love yourself.

Cons: I don’t really have any negative thoughts on this movie, it is certainly cheesy and pokes fun at most popular love stories but it is done in a way that you can laugh at without feeling like a bully. I wish there was more of a back -story on just how Natalie becomes so jaded, we see her as a little girl in the beginning and then… nothing. I guess it’s just up to us to imagine what happened to make her so cynical.

Pros: I loved it. It was funny and quirky with lots of well-intentioned snark. Rebel Wilson crushes this role as the anti-romance girl with the body image issues. She’s funny and smart and of course, goofy. Her ability to take even the most ridiculous scene and make it bearable is the key to making this movie so good. I feel like if they had cast anyone else for this role, it would have been a flop.

You can’t take it seriously because it highlights all of the ridiculous things that most love story movies like to shove down our throats; expecting us to believe that is how true love actually works in real life. The musical score is fantastic and the cast really nails the corny “meet cute” followed by the “fall out” ending with the huge “AHA “ moment.

Brandon Scott Jones is Donny, the aloof neighbor that is transformed into her gay BFF. He’s brilliant! I love that they pointed out that this was a stereotype and they really drive that point home showing the viewers that this isn’t what real life is necessarily like.

I will say that I absolutely loved Adam Devine (Josh) in this! He was so damn good at being the “good guy” that is completely overlooked by his crush. It was refreshing to watch him play a character that wasn’t 100% slap- stick. He’s funny and smart and his chemistry with Rebel Wilson makes this well worth your time.

Conclusion:

I do not like romance movies at all, never saw The Notebook and never will. Having said that; this movie is absolutely worth your time. Watch it with your friends with lots of wine.

Then tweet about it and watch it again. You won’t regret it!

Published

on

 in Hall H at San Diego Comic-Con, Rick Riordan and Disney+ revealed that Daniel Diemer (“Under the Bridge”) will star as fan-favorite cyclops “Tyson” in the epic adventure series “Percy Jackson and the Olympians.” Diemer joins Walker Scobell (Percy Jackson), Leah Sava Jeffries (Annabeth Chase) and Aryan Simhadri (Grover Underwood) as a series regular. The Disney+ Original series from Disney Branded Television and 20th Television will start filming its second season next week in Vancouver.

Season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is based on the second installment of Disney Hyperion’s best-selling book series titled “The Sea of Monsters” by award-winning author Rick Riordan. In the new season, Percy Jackson returns to Camp Half-Blood one year later to find his world turned upside down. His friendship with Annabeth is changing, he learns he has a cyclops for a brother, Grover has gone missing, and camp is under siege from the forces of Kronos. Percy’s journey to set things right will take him off the map and into the deadly Sea of Monsters, where a secret fate awaits the son of Poseidon.

Diemer stars as Tyson – a young Cyclops who grew up all alone on the streets, and finds it difficult to survive in the human world.  Shy and awkward, with a heart almost as big as he is, Tyson soon discovers that Poseidon is his father, which means Percy Jackson is his half-brother… and that Tyson may have finally found a home. 

Diemer recently starred in the Hulu limited series “Under the Bridge” based off the critically acclaimed book of the same name and a tragic true story of a missing teen girl in Vancouver in 1997. He will next star in the indie “Thug” opposite Liam Neeson and Ron Perlman for director Hans Petter Moland. Daniel was recently seen as the lead in the indie “Supercell” opposite Alec Baldwin and Skeet Ulrich and the lead in the film “Little Brother” opposite Phil Ettinger and JK Simmons. Daniel can also be seen in the Netflix series “The Midnight Club” and recently starred as the male lead in the breakout hit Netflix feature “The Half Of It” from producer Anthony Bregman and director Alice Wu. He is a graduate of Victoria Academy of Dramatic Arts in Vancouver.

Created by Rick Riordan and Jonathan E. Steinberg, season two of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” is executive produced by Steinberg and Dan Shotz alongside Rick Riordan, Rebecca Riordan, Craig Silverstein, The Gotham Group’s Ellen Goldsmith-Vein, Bert Salke, The Gotham Group’s Jeremy Bell and D.J.
