It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

"Is it" is a typical romantic comedy, which deals with one of the most recurring subjects of the things of the heart, a friendship that starts to get too strong, not that the film treats it in a perfect way, it just gives a tone and the (Daniel Radcliffe), a man who has just left the house, and who has just left the house. A relationship and finds Chantry (Zoe Kazan) at a party, with a great chemistry, soon they both became better friends, but the passion of wallace begins to wake up. With a very cliché script, we all know the story, but it's fun to follow, and the film does not force a development that does not have, its time and pace are accurate. Technically it has nothing new, with fast cuts, a very clear photograph, well marked acts, performances that do not stand out, a legal track, but little participatory, but in the whole of the work, it is visually inviting. We even have an attempt to use visual metaphors for Chantry's feelings, but over the course of the film this is silly, and replaceable by Chantry's sister. Lastly, "It is not a great romantic comedy, but it plays in a nice way in something that we all suffer, and it is still a fun movie.

Here we have yet another bland and predictable romantic comedy that will undoubtedly be forgotten by the vast majority of viewers within the space of a few weeks. We know exactly what is going to happen right from the very beginning, so what exactly is the point of the film? It's nothing new and the story has been done a million times before.As for the 'comedy' aspect of this romantic comedy, it's very much hit and miss, with more misses than hits. Daniel Radcliffe just doesn't convince me at all as an actor, and certainly not as a comedy actor. Perhaps it's because I see Potter and not Radcliffe when he appears on screen, but this type of role just doesn't suit him as an actor.'What If' is another generic romantic comedy that brings absolutely nothing new to the genre. Perhaps suitable to pass the time for those who like these cheesy, predictable type of romance films.
