Natalie, une architecte new-yorkaise, se bat d’arrache-pied pour se faire remarquer au travail. Malgré tout, on lui demande plutôt de distribuer des bagels et du café que de concevoir le prochain gratte-ciel de la ville. Comme si cela ne suffisait pas, Natalie, une éternelle pessimiste en amour, fait la rencontre d’un voleur qui la fait sombrer dans l’inconscience. Elle se réveille et découvre que sa vie s’est soudainement transformée en son pire cauchemar : une comédie sentimentale dont elle est la vedette. (Warner Bros. CA)

Il y a moyen de traiter ce thème de multiples façons et dans 90 % des cas, ça ne peut que réussir. Malheureusement, les créateurs se trouvent dans la minorité et ont créé un flop. Ce n’est pas totalement catastrophique, surtout en ce qui concerne le début et, étonnamment, la fin, mais la partie centrale n’a rien à offrir.

A pretty originally conceived romantic comedy where the main character ends up in the world of romantic movies and is pursued by Liam Hemsworth, who wouldn't bat an eye at Rebel Wilson in the real world. Wilson's performance is pretty ok and she fills her role as a Hollywood buffoon just fine, a few lines are amusing and overall it's a nice respite that takes its foot off the gas slightly in the last act. Better average. 60%.

Somehow I think that this comedy could have opened the gates to the world of American comedies for Rebel Wilson, if only it was funny. It seemed that the authors completely forgotten about humor and offered nothing but soulless scenes.

Isn't It Romantic appeals mainly thanks to an original premise that makes fun of romantic clichés of all kinds, which the film manages to do quite well in places, but sometimes it lags a bit. Rebel Wilson was perfect for the lead role of a woman who doesn't believe in clichéd romantic stories. Next to her, I was most impressed with Brandon Scott Jones in the supporting role of Donny, who parodied gay stereotypes. Yet I can't shake the feeling that a little more could have been extracted from the idea. However, as a one-watch comedy, the film suffices amply and offers a decent soundtrack with well-known songs.
