Free Guy, 2021 - ★★★½

"And while it’s frequently very funny in slightly off-kilter ways—Guy’s surge of free will encourages The Barista to long for more than drip coffee and The Bombshell to write a feminist tract on the evils of men—Free Guy can only work to the extent you allow yourself to buy into and be won over by the chemistry between Reynolds and Comer. It is, for all its sci-fi and gamer-centric trappings, a romcom at heart. I’ve been a sucker for Reynolds since Van Wilder and Waiting, and Comer has a sort manic vulnerability that is deeply appealing. The two are just very good together, they’ve got charisma to spare."
