All these rom coms are generally the same and that's not a bad thing, you just know where everything is going to go and what you're going to get. And that's the same here. Anyone But You is a pretty standard rom com that did surprisingly well. The highlight for me was the chemistry of the two leads, with Powell and Sweeney playing off each other well. And the real star is the city of Sydney. It's great to see a Hollywood movie set in Sydney, and to see places that I have walked and been to many times, be featured whether prominently or as background dressing.
This is a perfectly acceptable movie, but the city it's set in may be the real star.
