This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. By the time you've met the leads, the outcome is completely predictable. Daddarrio, Bachelor and Amell are utterly forgettable tho to be fair, Amell is given nothing to do. DeVine in the lead is not only unconvincing, he's really creepy and weirdly soulless. Only Hennig makes a decent impression as the flatmate/best friend of the female lead.

Very poor mans Groundhog Day.

Say hello to a film that you've seen 6,000 times before. When We First Met adds virtually nothing new to the table, and doesn't have much to offer.

When We First Met adds virtually nothing new to the table, and doesn't have much to offer. It's one of the most basic and predictable movies I've seen in a long time, and even fails on a comedy standpoint. Adam Devine has caught my eye recently, he always brings this energy to every film he's in, and he always steals the show. You can tell that he gives every role his all, and I admire him for that. Yet again, he shines in this movie. He's one of the best physical comedians in the past ten years, even if he still hasn't been in a great film, he has a lot of potential. In short, Adam Devine is a diamond in this vomit of a film. It's watchable, don't get me wrong, it's not a terrible film by far. I wouldn't say it was disappointing, because with a plot like this, I don't think it was ever going to be great. If you're a sucker for rom-coms, go watch it, it's on Netflix and it's only ninety minutes, just don't expect much. Expand

"When We First Met" is a Netflix comedy done wrong: it features an annoying protagonist, a tiresome script with barely any new ideas and childish jokes no one will find funny.
