Saw this today and thought it was decent – there were a lot of laughs and it avoided potentially questionable moments brought on by the premise with strong writing. The character moments feel authentic to towns with “seasonal” residents and by the end of the movie everyone comes off as nuanced with no outright antagonists
Unreferenced in the movie is the fact that that Matthew Broderick and Laura Benanti have an age difference of 18 years whereas Jennifer Lawrence and Andrew Barth Feldman are only 12 years apart but I’m not holding that against it lol
I think I mostly agree with Mark there but for me the misjudged parts were isolated enough that it didn’t ruin the whole thing. It feels like the script went through multiple drafts where they weren’t quite sure how far to go with the creepiness and the final result is inconsistent that both tries to comment on sex comedy tropes while also falling into them
