I am not a fan of romantic comedies. There are a couple of exceptions to that rule, but by and large, it's super not for me. Like I actively dislike most of these movies. Of those exceptions I was talking about though, almost all of them are recent releases. One of them even specifically has Alexandra Daddario in it! So, as much as I don't go in for the romantic comedy angle, I was willing to give Can You Keep a Secret? a chance. Unfortunately, I probably shouldn't have. It is a little different from the baseline RomCom I so despise, but it's still tetherd to the core concept by enough threads that I couldn't get behind it.

Final rating:★★ - Definitely not for me, but I sort of get the appeal.
