Best of all, it just came to streaming on Netflix.
Its rare that we get big budget rom coms coming to theaters like back in the 1990s and2000s.
To be clear, Im not downplaying the awesomeness of straight-to-streaming love fests.

Ill be the first to admit that Im still obsessed withNetflixsHappiness for Beginners.
But where are the Meg Ryans and Tom Hanks?
Wheres the big red carpet fanfare?
Luckily we got a studio rom com toward the tail-end of 2023 that may just reignite the genre.
Best of all,it just released on Netflix.
But they cant just ignore each other, because theyre both invited to the same wedding.

Anyone But Youhas everything thats been missing from the genre.
Its been a long time since a romantic comedy came out that followed the formula while still feeling fresh.
LuckilyAnyone But Youis much more like the romantic comedies that came before it.

Want to watch two hot people with undeniable chemistry fall in love?
ThatsAnyone But Youfor you.
Could all of the couples problems be solved just by speaking honestly with each other?
Sure, but if every movie did that, every film would be about one minute long.
Money talks, andAnyone But Youmight have proved to execs that the genre isnt dead.
Maybe we can blame the Marvel cinematic universe for the extreme lack of romantic comedies.
Studios thought people only cared about superheroes or remakes of their favorite movies from childhood.
Unfortunately, money talks.
Luckily,Anyone But Youwas a box office success.
It earnedover $216 million globally, which is almost ten times what they spent making it.
(Fingers crossed.)
