**07/10** I liked this one a lot more than I care to admit. Kumail and Issa were both briliant in this. They bounced off dialogues each other naturally and it was great fun to see that. And as someone here said this is definitely a "Netflix" movie. They did themselves a favour by releasing this on stream. It would have bombed at the box office. Anyway, a fun one time watch!

C'mon guys, it's bloody funny, with all the down-to-earth bits. Yeah yeah, the storyline is a bit trite and messy, but the chemistry between Kumail and Issa is great. I may forget about this movie in a while for sure, but it's also undeniable that I have laughed a lot while watching this one today.

It's fine but totally forgettable. I understand why this went to Netflix instead of waiting for a theatrical release.

The two leads don't take the movie seriously and because of this I never bought into the story. Jokes are not that funny either.

The classic rom-com is given a non-traditional spin in “The Lovebirds,” now streaming on Netflix. The honeymoon is over for couple Leilani (Issa Rae) and Jibran (Kumail Nanjiani), who’ve decided to split up after a couple of years together. Seconds after breaking up in their car on the way to More
