Set It Up
{4.5/5} “We know everything about them. What they like, what they don’t like. We control their entire schedule. We are the men behind the curtain. We can get them to do anything.”
Set It Up, released in 2018
Harper and Charlie are assistants who are working very hard and long hours for their bosses. They run into each other when they’re both looking for supper late at night. They joke that if they set their bosses up together they could have some free time. But Harper takes the idea seriously, and creates a spreadsheet with everything she knows about Kirsten.
This movie is delightful right from the beginning.
The leads are charming, and it’s very funny.
It’s about loving someone despite their bad qualities.
Tituss Burgess has a fun cameo.
Stars Zoey Deutch, Glen Powell, Lucy Liu, and Taye Diggs. Directed by Claire Scanlon (The People We Hate at the Wedding). The playful music is by Laura Karpman.
