Iris and Isaac’s first romantic weekend getaway goes awry. This romantic comedy of miscommunication and mismatched expectations basks in the magnetically charged opposites-attract chemistry between Iris (Molly Gordon) and Isaac (Logan Lerman). When their relationship swiftly unravels, Iris’ desperate hope that her beau’s reluctance to commit is merely curable confusion leads her to take increasingly unhinged actions to solidify her hold on Isaac’s heart. Writer-director Sophie Brooks maintains a sense of cheeky, off-kilter whimsy and twisted humor as the couple’s complete inability to read one another leads to an escalating series of potentially perilous misunderstandings — drawing us into the pair’s smitten rendezvous at a gorgeous rustic farmhouse amid a picturesque, bucolic landscape, and cleverly setting an alluring and refreshing romantic scene before abruptly upending it.
“It zigs where you think it’ll zag, weaponizing that knowledge and using it to subvert expectations. It constantly keeps you on your toes in a way that feels refreshing, occasionally downright invigorating.” —Drew Taylor, The Wrap “The dark inclinations of OH, HI! are a welcome change to the modern rom-com formula… With its playful writing and game cast, the film is sure to attract young fans and find its audience. At its root, this is a surprisingly sensitive commentary on uniquely millennial romantic loneliness.” —Jourdain Searles, Hollywood Reporter “[Molly Gordon] brings a fast-charging energy to Iris reminiscent of vintage Hepburn, while [Logan Lerman’s] adaptable and gullible Isaac recalls Cary Grant trying to keep up and assert himself in her wake.” —Marshall Shaffer, Playlist
