I was really hoping for a harsher examination of an industry built on superficiality, fleeting connections, and outright deception, especially considering how much dating now happens online between individuals who may never actually meet. Unfortunately, this film didn’t quite deliver that. “Lucy” (Dakota Johnson), the matchmaker earning $80,000 annually, spends her days selecting outfits and meticulously matching clients' preferences, with the anxious hope they won't lash out at each other when they finally meet! She is successful, and it’s while trying to gain new business from impressed singles and divorcees that she reveals, in conversation, that all she really wants is a man who has more money than anyone. He believes she isn't as materialistic as she seems and begins a courtship process that feels like something out of a combination of Jane Austen and Julia Child. Meanwhile, one of her clients, “Sophie” (Zoe Withers), experiences something disturbing, which shakes the previously self-assured "Lucy" and prompts her to consider how she views herself. Adding to the wedding's significance, she also unexpectedly encounters her former boyfriend (Chris Evans), who is now pursuing an acting career while working as a caterer and still seems to have feelings for her; however, he’s struggling financially, so a reconciliation seems unlikely. Who will she choose? Will anyone want her? And why should we even care? I simply didn't feel invested. There are occasional humorous moments, but mostly it feels like a gentle attempt at satire that could have been much sharper if the story hadn't devolved into an unengaging melodrama filled with expensive food and drink, and a noticeable effort to artificially increase someone’s height. Pascal is good in his role, and Evans effortlessly maintains his charming persona, but the whole thing felt reminiscent of a daytime soap opera. There’s too much talking and not enough depth; what seemed promising initially quickly faded into blandness. It's odd how wealthy people often choose such uncomfortable-looking furniture and rarely have televisions.
