Throw in a wannabe super cop hubby who in reality is an also ran, throw in a double 7 year itch marriage situation, throw in two A listers who have made a name for themselves in RomCom genre AND throw in some cliched script with attempts at making funny dialogues based on situations that are staring at the face at that time. One thinks the premise is great and it will now deliver a classic RomCom and will do wonders. Well the same thought draws viewers to have a dekho and may be that's why this title surpassed the viewership record of Bird Box on Netflix but may be because a smart move of Netflix's casting strategy including some known names of British, Mexican, Welsh, South African, Icelandic, Japanese celluloid along with Hollywood A listers Jen & Adam did the trick. When you look at this diverse nationality, all those countries above are Key Markets of Netflix which got them the eyeballs. Brilliant strategy and hats off to Netflix 😉

Probably the only silver lining is Jennifer Anniston that too partly. She makes a valiant effort through her trademark smirks, mannerisms and cheekiness which only she can bring to the table, to make the two hour long movie somewhat funny that somewhere falls short. The plot is typical RomCom formula where Jen is a bored wife who is also a hair dresser and has a penchant for mystery novels & her hubby played by Adam is a modest also ran Officer in NYPD but keeps telling his wife that he is a Detective considering she is NUTS after mystery novels. Bored with her ordinary existence, Jen is craving for some action/adventure in life and is some what underwhelmed by her sooo predictable hubby. So once Adam decides that its time to liven up Jens expectations and tells her that he got promoted and a got a rise too; so to celebrate the anniversary he will take her to Europe. So they set out for that dreamy holiday and we think the Com part in RomCom is finally gonna kick in on all cylinders but Alas ☹

Plot wise, Jen chances upon a meeting with a millionaire cousin (played by Luke Evans of The Hobbit & Girl on the Train fame) of a wealthy Tycoon in France, who invites her to a party on his Plush family Yacht which she grabs as her only chance to indulge in grand, upgraded luxury with her hubby. The tycoon gets murdered on the party night and the suspicion falls squarely on Jen & Adam as the possible killers. How they handle the situation from there after and what all they do and go through to prove their innocence and will they succeed in it, forms the rest of the story.

The photography/camera work is good. You get to see some good locales and picturesque surroundings of Monaco and Lake Como Italy (where Virushka & Ambani daughter's wedding took place) Adam is below par. He tries to act extra goofy and some where misses the bus overdoing it. The efforts to give a European Vacation kind of comic touch to a wanna be Arthur Conan Doyle style mystery, the movie some where loses the plot and becomes a drab affair. Overall its some what below par. It would have been duller if not for Jennifer who makes an honest attempt to lift it higher. Net net, the pudding is not that good in eating as good as it looks. You can watch it on a day when you don't have any other better option
