Destiny has a plan...apparently!
Look I'll be the first to admit this type of movie is not normally in my wheelhouse, but to be fair I can't just keep reviewing Horror, Slasher, Action, or Comedies.
If you have ever wanted to see Pop Star Nick Jonas make a cameo in a movie with his own actress wife who roasted him publicly in a loving way on television then do I have a movie for you.
That's right Nick gets to play a dud date who's more into burning carbs by having sex with his real life wife Priyanka Chopra Jonas, but she hits the eject seat!
"Love Again" is a stylistic Comedy, Drama, Romance that will have women flocking to the movies to see if a little of this magic of the heart will enter their daily lives.
They say: A young woman tries to ease the pain of her fiancé's death by sending romantic texts to his old mobile phone number, and forms a connection with the man the number has been reassigned to.
That pretty much sums up the plot to a movie that will become another "Notebook" fully loaded with more cheesy moments than a Pizza Hut Cheesy Crust Pizza.
The Opera "Orpheus and Euridice" by Christoph Willibald Gluck (1762) was used as vehicle to move forward the love story of Scottish actor Sam Heughan ("Outlander") as "Rob Burns" no, not the famous poet, but a music journalist living in New York and Mrs Jonas as "Mira Ray" a children's book writer and illustrator.
Fun Fact: The Opera was originally titled "Orfeo Ed Euridice". You can use that at your next trivia night...be my guest.
Sam and Priyanka's on screen chemistry is very believable and saves this film from the discount bins.
In a very Generation X friendly nod the couple are playing Jenga in one scene at a trendy cafe.
Watch out for: Celine Dion as herself. She steals every scene she's in and made this night at the cinema worthwhile for me. What a voice! BTW the soundtrack is loaded with Celine's hits including the Jim Steinman penned tune "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" complete with a funny shower karaoke scene and a wonderful cover of Eric Carmens' "All By Myself".
If you like playing "Would You Rather" then strap yourself in for the next 1 hour and 44 minutes of "Love Again" possibly the rom com of 2023!
