Brad Newsome Sydney Morning Herald Director Claire Scanlon...gets everyone leaning into their roles, and Deutch is a particular delight. Sep 26, 2018 Full Review Ella Kemp Little White Lies Claire Scanlon's Manhattan meet-cute is a bouncy comedy with plenty to say about modern relationships. Aug 24, 2018 Full Review Bethonie Butler Washington Post It's wildly predictable and a little cheesy. And yet, it's an absolute gem of a movie. Jul 24, 2018 Full Review Patricia Karounos Refinery29 Deutch and Powell are so good together that they should be making more movies together à la Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan, or Emma Stone and Ryan Gosling — it’s what we deserve. Oct 23, 2023 Full Review Kate Boyle InSession Film Set It Up is filled with crazy challenges for the assistants to overcome to keep their bosses happy and together, all while navigating their own personal problems. It’s a fun movie that’s easy to watch, so I recommend anyone with Netflix give it a try. Rated: B- Mar 8, 2023 Full Review Charlotte Harrison Charlotte Sometimes Goes to the Movies Cinematic comfort food at it’s finest, both Deutch and Powell are charisma machines and a total joy to watch.

Venni P The plot was pretty good. There were a lot of funny moments, tough the ending felt a little bit rushed. Some moments felt a little chaotic, which made the parts harder to follow. The actors were a good fit for their roles, but some of the characters coud've had more depth. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/09/25 Full Review Elliot B Solid film, a good Netflix find - blends 90s and 2010s vibes, a good cast and quotable. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/11/25 Full Review Audience Member It’s wasn’t movie or the year or anything but I think it deserves a better rating then given. My husband I had some laughs and enjoyed it enough. Just a simple and fun little flick. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Remi C A predictable plot, did have good actors but a bad ending. I would say I enjoyed watching it but is wasn’t my favorite. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/05/25 Full Review Audience Member Estava procurando um filme leve e tranquilo onde eu não tenha que desvendar nenhum mistério oculto para entender neste 26 de dezembro pós natal e encontrei "O Plano Imperfeito". Esse filme mostra que a felicidade está nas conexões que formamos ao longo do caminho, não apenas nos grandes planos que arquitetamos. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/26/24 Full Review Ed R Great actors with a terrible plot. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/16/24 Full Review Read all reviews
