Not What I Expected. Thank Goodness!!

Rating: 9/10 (7 January 2020)

I am very tired of movies that I can play "spot-the-formula" while watching. You know, at some point after the half way mark, a conflict that you can see a mile away due to some seriously heavy handed foreshadowing, rears its ugly head and the tension begins. The hero has to deal with something he never expected and yadda yadda yadda it's resolved 10 minutes before the closing credits roll with the leads kissing.
This lively little movie doesn't input fake conflict and lets us cheer for a really moral and talented lead. The performances are true and the plotline is delicious. We laughed and cried and adored how the movie ended.
Once again, Kate McKinnon picks up every single scene she's in, puts it in her pocket and strolls away with it. She is briliant.
