Anyone But You (2023) review

Much ado about basically nothing: law student Bea (Sydney Sweeney) and financial analyst Ben (Glen Powell) have a meet-cute moment in a coffee shop (he helps her obtain a key for the bathroom), they spend the night together but she leaves early and his feelings are hurt (and nasty words are spoken) - later, they reunite in Australia for a wedding but their bickering threatens the whole ceremony, their exes Margaret (Charlee Fraser) and Jonathan (Darren Barnet) pop up and then they pretend to be in a relationship to keep everyone happy.  I recognize that this was a "sleeper hit" and did quite well at the box office (audiences love rom-coms with pretty females) although the plot points are as gracefully executed as a koala juggling chainsaws and every instance where director Gluck, working off a screenplay he co-wrote with Ilana Wolpert, includes passages and scenarios from The Bard it only manages to make it worse.  The physical comedy, like Ben stripping naked because of a spider in his underpants, isn't as funny as it thinks it is, and the issue of privilege lingers in the background: how pricey is it to sail a yacht through Sydney Harbour, anyway?
