could have been bolder

I did not dislike this movie at all, it was entertaining, funny and heartwarming, but it could have been better.

Why not show a life that can be fun, engaging and fullfilling without being super successful? Why not focus on the child and show the world how this can be fullfilling on its very own?

The main plot was a bit boring. Wherever she goes in life, there is success waiting for her, pretty boyfriends waiting at every corner that just die for her.

What I got was entertainment, very good entertainment, so don't get me wrong, this is fun to watch and far away from a failure.

What I wanted was a movie that strays away from the typical "I am beautiful, I have success and I get a fullfilling relationship" - trope. In the one life she could have had a fullfilling relationship, maybe even with her daughter, a normal life, like millions of people are having right now. In the other life she could have had success, which is also fullfilling, but no daughter and not a perfect relationship.

Anyway, I hope you can see what I am getting at. Still, if you like romcoms and want to see a good one, this is a great choice.
