Emma Corrigan, a girl with a few secrets, thinks she’s about to die on a turbulent plane ride. She spills them all to the handsome stranger sitting next to her. At least, she thought he was a stranger. But then, her company’s young and elusive CEO, arrives at the office. It’s him. And he knows every single humiliating detail about her.
I am not a fan of romantic comedies. There are a couple of exceptions to that rule, but by and large, it's super not for me. Like I actively dislike most of these movies. Of those exceptions I was talking about though, almost all of them are recent releases. One of them even specifically has Alexandra Daddario in it! So, as much as I don't go in for the romantic comedy angle, I was willing to give Can You Keep a Secret? a chance. Unfortunately, I probably shouldn't have. It is a little different from the baseline RomCom I so despise, but it's still tetherd to the core concept by enough threads that I couldn't get behind it.
Final rating:★★ - Definitely not for me, but I sort of get the appeal.
