Review of Serendipity (2001) by Nick K — 15 Jan 2019
Serendipity is an adorable film featuring two likeable leads but it commits one misstep- It keeps the two leads apart from one another for the majority of the running time. This is one of those movies that thinks it's building suspense and romantic expectations by keeping the characters away from one another for most of the movie.
In reality, all it's doing is delaying the inevitable moment when they finally get together and robbing us of the opportunity to enjoy them interacting. I like romantic comedies where the characters spend time with each other instead of running around New York City and San Francisco, almost bumping into each other.
However, for anyone who loves romance, New York City(pre 9/11) or the actors John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale Serendipity is time well spent.
