Somebody I Used to Know (2023)
Dave Franco’s film Somebody I Used to Know has the uber-talented (and under-appreciated) Alison Brie. Even a couple of actors in supporting roles are surprisingly effective, like Community’s Danny Pudi and Airplane’s Julie Hagerty.
The movie follows Ally, an ambitious reality television series producer who comes home for the first time since leaving for Los Angeles.
To All the Boys I Loved Before (2018)
Based on the popular young adult novel, sure, To All the Boys I Loved Before can be sentimental and somewhat predictable. Still, this tale of a young girl navigating the complexities of coming-of-age romance manages to provide an entertaining experience for the Gen-Z crowd and the millennials who are young at heart.
Your Place or Mine (2023)
Sure, Your Place or Mine’s ending may have needed a rewrite because the script leaves logic at the door and overdoses on sentimentality. However, this Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher vehicle has an infectious charm and some genuine laughs. The story follows two best friends, Debbie and Peter, who reflect on and celebrate 20 years of friendship.
