Synopsis
This meta-comedy parodies and celebrates all the trappings of the rom-com. Rebel Wilson stars as Natalie, an architect who can’t get noticed at work and whose cynicism gets in the way of her personal life. Then Natalie is knocked unconscious while trying to escape a mugging. When she comes to, everything is very different. New York City smells better, her apartment is beautiful, and men pay attention to her. Like, a lot of attention.
To her horror, Natalie realizes she’s living inside a romantic comedy. As she comes to terms with all the trappings of rom-com existence — conversations that turn into dance sequences; a new best friend; an impossibly attractive boyfriend (Liam Hemsworth) — Natalie’s entire world changes.

Awful. Just awful
A little on the cheesy side but at least they didn't try to hide it, I laughed out loud more than once, enjoyed it
Metacritic
Wilson, letting the strain show the way a hundred other funny folks expected to “save” a flimsy comedy built around them have before her, has never seemed more out of her depth.
Every trope, twist, and trick of the genre is up for skewering in the comedy, but the film keeps things light and smart, never dipping into darkness or crass jokes. It’s funny because it’s clever, but it’s also never cruel.
In a fun, glossy take down of age-old genre tropes, Rebel Wilson wakes up in an alternate universe, dominated by romantic comedy cliches.
