Objectively, this Prime Video streaming rom-com probably isn’t that bad, but subjectively, it’s tedious, tiresome, uncharismatic, predictable, and generic. There’s almost no reason for it to exist and I’m unfairly annoyed I wasted my time on it.

The flick is about a Chinese-Australian girl who gets hooked into her sister’s wedding. A fortune teller tells her she must go on five blind dates before the wedding to find her true love who will also help her with her traditional Chinese tea shop.

Hold me back from the drama… five blind dates… now I’m counting them down with impatience and annoyance. If this flick had been anything but this generic thing, the premise and process might be appealing. But it’s just a checkmark movie now. Plus (spoiler alert), she only really goes on three blind dates so now I’m indignant at the title.

The only thing somewhat interesting about the flick is that it stars a mostly Chinese cast with a focus on Chinese culture. That’s at least different. But, then again, so is being set in Australia <shrug>. I struggle to find superlatives.

This movie didn’t kick my cat or yell at my dog… it’s not unwatchable garbage, but it also aggravated me on an impractical level. I’ve seen too many rom-coms to be bothered by something so patently… this. If you have more patience or less of a dark miserable heart, you might like it. Perhaps it’s just been a bad life.
