Rebel Wilson stars in the 2019 American meta romantic comedy film, "Isn't It Romantic."
Isn't It Romantic is more than your typical romantic comedy film. Directed by Todd Strauss-Schulson and written by Erin Cardillo, Dana Fox, and Katie Silberman, this movie brings a refreshing twist to the genre. Rebel Wilson plays the lead role of Natalie, a woman who finds herself trapped in a world where everything around her plays out like a clichéd PG-13 romantic comedy. Liam Hemsworth, Adam DeVine, and Priyanka Chopra Jonas also make appearances in supporting roles.
The film offers a unique take on the romantic comedy genre, challenging the traditional tropes and conventions that have been seen time and time again. Natalie, a talented architect, has developed a strong dislike for romantic comedies due to her own low self-esteem and difficulty finding love. Her assistant, Whitney, who is a fan of these films, engages in debates with Natalie about their authenticity. Natalie sees them as unrealistic and filled with clichés, while Whitney argues that flaws are what make people beautiful.
One day, Natalie's life takes an unexpected turn when she is knocked unconscious during an attempted mugging in the subway. She wakes up to find herself trapped in a world that resembles the romantic comedies she despises. Her relationships with people around her drastically change. Blake, a billionaire client of her company, suddenly develops a romantic interest in her. Her neighbor Donny, who was previously a misogynist, becomes a flamboyant and supportive friend. Whitney, on the other hand, becomes her enemy at work.
Desperate to return to reality, Natalie realizes that she can only leave this world by finding true love, as is the tradition in romantic comedies. This realization leads her on a journey of self-discovery and self-love. As she gains confidence, she proposes an architectural idea to Blake and reunites with her best friend and co-worker, Josh, with whom she discovers a romantic connection.
Isn't It Romantic challenges the often unrealistic and clichéd portrayals of love in romantic comedies. It highlights the importance of self-love and acceptance before pursuing romantic relationships. The film garnered positive reviews from critics and audiences alike, with praise for its satirical take on the genre and the performances of the cast.
