Isn't It Romantic
My First RomCom Movie Review
starring Rebel Wilson
So I had to do this- post my first romcom movie review. It's totally unreal, and so not like me! Back when this released, thirteen days ago, I thought: "Oh boy! Another stilly, romantic movie." Don't get me wrong, West Side Story is my absolute favorite movie. What I always dislike about romcom's is that they're so un-freaking real! But Isn't It Romantic, starring Rebel Wilson, is one for my iTunes library. Let me tell you why... #element-ec34083f-683f-4853-a841-fd7ca0e7f491 .waddons-blog-image.hideImage { display: none;}
I brought my mom and bestie with me to see Isn't It Romantic. This movie affected me in several ways. First off, it's Rebel Wilson! She's beautiful, funny, she's got an amazing Aussie accent, and she always touches on being overweight in such a fun way that you never see her as the "big" chic. You just see her!
So in this movie, she's a love cynic. She works hard, but is always overlooked because of either being female, or being bigger than the rest. She's sort of a slacker, but she's great at her job- just not noticed. She's the one who simply doesn't have the life she'd imagined, you know? With that, she's a big heavy (no pun intended) on love. So when her assistant, who watches romcom's from the beginning of work till time to clock out, says she's a romance snob, she prattles. She explains how every movie works, why it's sucks and so much more. Her points are valid, but she's missing something that's right in her face!
So when the adventure of the movie takes off, with a huge hitch by the way, she finds herself trapped in a sort of alternate reality. There, it seems she's to remain, till she realizes a beautiful lesson. But can she realize what the lesson is when it's happening to her?
Isn't It Romantic, is totally cheesy, musically grounded without being a true musical, and so freaking funny that I was shocked when I exited the theater. You catch every line from previous romance and romantic comedies, you catch and begin singing the songs playing in the background (because they're typical of romance), and you die at some of her recognizable realizations. What's not to love about this movie? And there's so much, much more that I haven't even touched.
What I think I loved best was her transformation. When she goes through these hilarious changes, so does her clothing line. She looked amazing and I want her Spanx, man! She was looking good. But what was better than ever was what she came away with. It's something every person needs to realize. I had to learn it, and so does everyone else who's not up to speed yet.
Isn't It Romantic is great. If you are a romcom fan, this one's for you. I can't believe I'll be buying this one, but I will! Cheers.
