Love at First Sight on Netflix
We weren’t betting much on Netflix’s new romantic comedy, especially after their recent interactive disaster. But subscribers don’t seem to have any trouble putting the odds against the platform for productions by Hayley Lou Richardson (White Lotus) and Ben Hardy (Bohemian Rhapsody). Just four days after its release, The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight (try saying that out loud…) is currently the second most watched movie ever.
It didn’t take much to convince us to take a look. If you watch it in the original version, like us, you’ll be pleasantly surprised to hear Jamila Jamil’s voice so British and so chic. Tahan, formerly of The Good Place, plays a multi-faceted character, a kind of angel who watches over Hadley and Oliver’s story and who occasionally gives herself a little help to push her luck.
Let’s say Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight doesn’t reinvent the genre. Some will find that it uses genre clichés, others that it has a certain sensitivity that is good for the heart. And we agree with them on this. Haley Lou Richardson and Ben Hardy make a charming and charming on-screen couple. The two actors have an undeniable chemistry that makes you believe the story. We let ourselves be taken on our own adventure with a smile on our face.
In any case, this movie broke the hearts of many Internet users, as evidenced by these few tweets:
The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight is an adaptation of the 2012 book by author Jennifer E. Smith. This isn’t the first time Hollywood has taken his writings and adapted them for the big screen. Last year, subscribers were able to discover Hello, Farewell, and Us in the Middle on Netflix, a romantic comedy starring Jordan Fisher and Talia Ryder.
