Natalie (Rebel Wilson) is cynical about love. She despises a good love story and hates romantic comedies even more. However, when Natalie gets knocked unconscious during a subway mugging she magically wakes up in a whole new world. The flowers are bright, New York smells like lavender, and the guys are actually checking her out. Natalie discovers that she's trapped in a romantic comedy, and she's playing the leading lady. Eventually Natalie realizes that to get out of the love story she must discover the meaning of true love.

Talking Points:

Sexual Content: Moderate

•    We see characters kiss.

•    A male character is shown numerous times walking around shirtless, wrapped in a towel.

•    There are several sexual references involving nudity, fertility, male body parts, and sexually transmitted diseases.

Violent/Disturbing Content: Mild

•    Silly slapstick violence. A character is hit on the head, mugged, and hit by a car. All done in a cartoonish way.

Crude or Profane Language: Moderate

•    We hear the f-word, "h-ll,"  "s--t, "bitch," and "goddamn."

Drug and Alcohol Content: Mild

•    Characters are shown drinking alcohol in bars.

Will Kids Like It? Yes

Overall this is an entertaining romantic comedy; appropriate for pre-teen and teens.
