Review of Table 19 (2017) by Rikki B — 06 Aug 2017

I'm not sure why this one got such terrible reviews. It's an adorable little comedy that's certainly weighted down by a few awkward moments (most notably those focusing on the awkward teen character), but the good moments far outweigh the bad. It played with classic tropes in this genre and created something surprisingly memorable. It did a great job at building up its characters and making them feel real. I've rarely done such a one-eighty on a character as I did with the romantic male lead in this one and they did that character shift in a way that didn't feel forced or heavy handed. It's one of the few romances I can think of where both romantic leads are reasonably flawed and relatable.

If you like character driven stories then I'd say give this one a look.
