Movie review: Isn't it Romantic?

We all know how Romantic Comedies are basic and cliched: a beautiful man meets a pretty lady, they fall in love, then one of them realizes that he/she has feelings for somebody else, then boom: he/she falls in love with "the one" and then there is a cut for a happy ending. Isn't it right? Well, that's exactly what New York City architect Natalie hates so much that she ends up roasting rom-comedies for three hours in her office. Being a lead architect with no dignity or pride whatsoever, she is known as "coffee and bagels girl" in the office. And, if it wasn't enough, Natalie is a lifelong cynic - she doesn't believe in happily ever after, love or true feelings. This fact is quite depressing for Natalie's co-worker, who is madly in love with her. She doesn't have a clue about it, though. 

Well, the story continues with Natalie being trapped in a Romantic Comedy as a lead lady. Isn't insane? With all her mocking skills and a great sense of humor, this movie turns into a funny collapsing musical. While singing, trying to make guys fall in love with her and dancing her butt off in a club, she realizes what she really needed to do - to fall in love with herself. 

The stigma around perfect relationships is quite wrong.  People need to love themselves first, in order to love somebody else. This simple fact cuts off all toxic relationships and couples' mental health issues. "Isn't it Romantic" is a gentle reminder to fall in love with yourself first, which is just beautiful.

So, love yourself and it would be romantic.
