Overview

Recently divorced mom Lauren and widowed dad Jim let their friends push them into a blind date, which goes disastrously wrong. Unsurprisingly, neither wants to see the other ever again. However, fate intervenes when both Jim and Lauren, unbeknownst to each other, purchase one-half of the same vacation package at a South African resort for families, during spring break. They and their children are forced to share the same romantic suite and participate in a slew of family activities together.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A lighthearted romantic comedy that uses mishap and forced proximity to melt two guarded single parents into each other's arms, while their kids find their own reasons to connect. It's comfort-watch territory, fizzy, warm, and unconcerned with plausibility.
