The best pure comedy since Game Night. The premise is ridiculous, and it works well enough that you don't really think about how ridiculous it is. Jennifer Lawrence can do it all.

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A lighthearted summer comedy about an older woman hired to seduce a shy 19-year-old that turns into something genuinely charming and sweet. It's the kind of film that revels in awkward humor without ever feeling mean-spirited.

Reviews
It's exciting when there's a comedy in the theaters instead of straight-to-streaming. The trailer really doesn't do No Hard Feelings justice. It presents it as a teen sex comedy, and I won't say it's NOT that, but it is better. The two leads have enough heart to ground the story, even when some of the bits go off the rails, and Jennifer Lawrence can really deliver the laughs.
