I didn’t mind it. A few clunky lines aside, I thought our two leads were both pretty interesting and it was mostly an enjoyable watch. Went w/ new friend from the Broadway chat at work. If you’re reading this, hi! I hope we see something else soon.
There are definitely too many “actually, I was ___ the whole time” reveals near the end that muddied up my perception of what story they were trying to tell, but thematically it mostly sticks the landing: the thorny interplay of shame, sex, loneliness, & human needs. You know, lighthearted stuff. 👍
