No Hard Feelings arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. No Hard Feelings gets the fundamentals right first, then finds room to get weird with it. On the brink of losing her childhood home, Maddie discovers an intriguing job listing: wealthy helicopter parents looking for someone to “date” their introverted 19-year-old son, Percy, before he leaves for college. To her surprise, Maddie soon discovers the awkward Percy is no sure thing. The chemistry Jennifer Lawrence and Andrew Barth Feldman bring to it does a lot of the heavy lifting. It was released in 2023. What keeps No Hard Feelings from feeling disposable is a cast that clearly understands the material better than the format usually demands. It delivers reliably on what it promises, which is more than most of its competition manages.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in No Hard Feelings. It does not lean on comparisons to make its case. Best experienced as a single, sustained watch from start to finish. Jennifer Lawrence is funny in a way that holds up on rewatch. Put it on when you need something guaranteed to land.
