Not the worst thing you could watch

It has several laugh out loud moments, like the Tesla robot immigrants line at the start which misleadingly raised my expectations really high. I was a little excited before hand, didn't know the story or expecting it to be amazing, all I knew was Jack Whitehall in a movie with Shailene Woodley; which are two people I never thought would star in a movie together as romantic lead. And from that point it's exactly how you'd expect it to go. Don't expect anything special. I am a huge fan of Shailene in pretty much everything I've seen her in, and I've watched some of Jack's standup and liked him in jungle cruise.It was just really cringe for the most part, and as much as I like Jack his role felt miscast, he started off as a player which wasn't believable even if you hadn't seen him in anything else; but as the movie went on he broke character and instead of acting as Charles, glimpses of the Jack's personality in real life broke through. Shailene was great and feels like her talents went wasted.It had a really low budget and it was very evident throughout; which is fine sometimes but is noticeable when the movie isn't great to begin with. Robots look scary and creepy, the slave ones not the clones. It was a pretty good premise but definitely could've been executed better and it would've covered up the cracks. It also feels much shorter than it actually is, which I think is a positive, rather that than the movie feel drag out.The characters lacked chemistry and in such a movie that would've been invaluable. It's the type of movie that needs spectacular chemistry or writing in order to pull off, otherwise it flops. I couldn't hate it though because I'm a fan of the actors but in the end, it should've been more romantic and more comedic, so that doesn't bode well for any romcom.

A funny Black Mirror episode

I had zero expectations for this movie, but it turned out to be surprisingly funny. It takes a satirical approach to our human society, highlighting our excessive dependence on technology.There aren't any twists and turns; everything is quite predictable. Nevertheless, it provides a comforting experience, like indulging in comfort food.The jokes were great, and there were some thought-provoking moments. The movie wraps up with a feel-good ending. Not every film needs to be a masterpiece; some are simply meant to be enjoyed. I never felt bored during its 1 hour and 33-minute runtime.Don't be deceived by its low ratings. It's a fun movie that's even more enjoyable when watched alone or with your loved ones.It's a mixed package of Sci-Fi, Satire, Comedy, and Romance.

It's actually entertaining

I like Shailene Woodley although she's not renowned for comedy. Jack Whitehall I can take or leave. He's not really that funny. But I love SciFi so I decided to give it a try.The idea is great. Charles has a robot (C2) which is a mirror image of himself which he uses to work and earn a wage, and take women out on dates until they are ready to have sex, then he takes over.Elaine also has a mirror image robot (E2) which she allows to date and sleep with men in order to get money and expensive gifts from them without her having to sleep with them.One night C2 meets E2 and they fall in love and run off together framing Charles and Elaine in a crime, knowing they will be caught having mirror image robots which is illegal.Still with me?Onwards to some really silly but funny humour. Whitehall and Woodley actually do have a bit of chemistry together but it's not your usual formulaic romance and there are no gratuitous sex scenes. It's all just silly, plain fun and although Whitehall is a professional comedian, he doesn't take advantage of that in the film and sticks to his character.I really enjoyed it.
