Flawed

"Plus One" feels like a less conventional rom-com maybe because it's more grounded in reality. It doesn't glorify love but shows that it can be messy and indecisive. We wonder if we have made the right choice even after the vows are exchanged. The leads show us their foibles, their strange habits and their doubts in a way we can relate to.

There is no way to know for sure if we have found a match that will withstand the test of time but we take the leap of faith anyway hopefully cognizant that we are just as hopelessly flawed as our partner.

On Netflix and recommended.
