Claire Scanlon's Manhattan meet-cute is a bouncy comedy with plenty to say about modern relationships. Go to Full Review
Bethonie Butler Washington Post Jul 24, 2018
It's wildly predictable and a little cheesy. And yet, it's an absolute gem of a movie. Go to Full Review
Patricia Karounos Refinery29 Oct 23, 2023
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. Go to Full Review

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. Go to Full Review

Mar 17, 2019 Sweet, funny, and predictable in the best way. Romcom fun!
Mar 17, 2019 This is by far the most cheesiest movie I have ever seen. I will never get back that hour and half of my life back. I would not suggest this movie to anyone. See more
Ron S Mar 13, 2019 Super clichï¿ 1/2 1/2 1/2 (C). Especially the main couple. Wish they could forcus/ made it more realistic with there bossï¿ 1/2 1/2 1/2(TM)s relationship and character. Understand they tried to be trendy and stylish but thatï¿ 1/2 1/2 1/2(TM)s just not enough anymore. See more
Mar 9, 2019 Cute idea, and good cast of characters but a bit over the top in terms of reality and also was mostly quite predictable. Enjoyable but missing some depth in characters and the storyline. See more
Feb 10, 2019 Excelenteeeeee las actuaciones de los 4 actores son espectaculares películas bien hecha!
Abraham S Jan 6, 2019 Classic Romantic-Comedy that gave life to two separate characters who share different, yet same worlds. I appreciated how the movie gave back to the assistants despite the climactic overhaul necessary for the plot to follow the Rom-Com formula. See more
