Plus One loves the spectacle of love, but it’s not clear it really loves Alice and Ben, or wants to take the time to get us to love them.

I consider Plus One to be the most underrated rom-com of the last five years.

One of the best films I saw at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival, Plus One is a delightfully charming summer romcom, the type that seems to be disappearing in theaters and thriving on streaming services.

Plus One is as predictable as they come for romantic-comedy plots. However, the entertaining dialogue and winning performances of the movie's cast make the film an enjoyable and breezy ride.

A salted caramel kind of comedy that offers some good advice for living, and loving.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jun 23, 2020

With a running time of 99 minutes, Plus One is a charming and delightful take on the romcom. A refreshing and spirited sorbet to the many saccharine movies that pop up around this time of year.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Mar 5, 2020

A lack of originality is compensated for by charm and committed performances in this sweetly beguiling revamp of the Four Weddings formula.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 10, 2020

Erskine, with her earthy chuckle and precision-tooled comic timing, is the real discovery here. She's a smutty, sniggering joy in the role and I can't wait to see what she does next.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 9, 2020

Deft, daft and wildly endearing.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 7, 2020

A love story with its heart in the right place.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 6, 2020

Maya Erskine's commitment to her part is total, which in context comes as a decidedly mixed blessing.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Feb 5, 2020

While it doesn't have any flashy names that jump out and grab you, it shouldn't be overlooked and is one of the few recent rom-coms worth spending some time with.

| Original Score: 7/10 | Feb 5, 2020

A formulaic mashup of Four Weddings and a Funeral and My Best Friend's Wedding.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 5, 2020

laugh-light, derivative

| Original Score: 2/5 | Feb 5, 2020

It's nothing radical, but Chan and Rhymer serve up new wine in old bottles in a way that's highly promising for future endeavours.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Feb 3, 2020

Going for low-key laughs rather than massive lols, 'Plus One' leans on the likeability of its leads, who have convincing enough chemistry and make for a breezy enough 90 minutes.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 30, 2020

This is a sweet, heart-on-a-sleeve celebration of love blossoming in unlikely circumstances.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Sep 4, 2019

Fresh, funny, smart romcom; sex, drinking, and language.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 14, 2019

If you like swimming in the traditional rom-com shallow water you won't drown with this charmer.

| Original Score: B- | Aug 11, 2019

Plus One is a hilarious and, dare I say, relatable take on the classic romantic comedy formula with enough sharp one-liners - particularly by Maya Erskine - to keep you hooked from beginning to end.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 5, 2019
