Ana (Camila Mendes) is an ambitious intern dreaming of a career in the art world while trying to impress her demanding boss Claire (Marisa Tomei). When she's upgraded to first class on a work trip, she meets handsome Will (Archie Renaux), who mistakes Ana for her boss--a white lie that sets off a glamorous chain of events, romance and opportunity, until her fib threatens to surface.

Critics Consensus

Lightly entertaining even as it hews to genre conventions, Upgraded is an appealing option for anyone seeking a good old-fashioned rom-com.

I think they set it in this very specific world of art, which, even if it's not entirely accurate, it's specific. So within its own world, it feels developed.

The movie is unevenly directed, and some scenes struggle to clear even the low bar set by more polished streaming originals. But Young succeeds nonetheless in channeling the freshman thrill of plunging into an alluring adult milieu.

This is a story about women supporting women, especially across generations, and that’s what makes Upgraded resonate more than just a frothy rom-com would.

4/5

Young’s Upgraded employs art in a romantic comedy that also doubles as a film about business, nearly leaning into workplace drama, and I believe there is something commendable about how those ideas are offered to the audience.

2.5/5

It's a romantic comedy that follows the genre's established formula, one we've seen on several occasions. It may differ in some small moments, but generally speaking, we already know what's going to happen. [Full Review in Spanish]
