Reception 
The film received mostly mixed reviews. Algemeen Dagblad said that the film had too many romcom-clichés and caricatures for the people to feel real. De Volkskrant also mentioned the romcom-clichés and wished the film had more depth to it. However NRC Handelsblad was a bit more positive saying that the film aims for a young audience but with the pace of the jokes could also get other people invested. The film was sold out on its openingweekend. Controversy 
It is the first film of actor Bilal Wahib after a widely reported incident in which he asked a minor to expose himself on Instagram Live. References
