This likeable film about a geeky professor with a sideline in being a fake hit man who gets those who want to hire him to murder someone, is based on a true story - very, very loosely. The scenario is based on fact but the Rom-com which is tbh, most of the film, is clearly fiction…. And deeply implausible. Not that that makes it less enjoyable. It’s directed by Richard Linklater, who directed The School of Rock, and has two appealing stars in Glen Powell and Adria Arjona. It feels a little like the Fall Guy, I’m not quite sure why but Powell is talked of as the new Gosling apparently. I thoroughly enjoyed it. |
