Let’s Take A Look At The Cast Of Netflix’s A Perfect Pairing

Netflix’s rom-com, A Perfect Pairing is said to tackle food and romance. A Stuart McDonald's direction, the film seeks to offer a respite from our hectic lives by being centred around an assured woman who finds love and purpose in delightful entertainment. 

In a review by Variety, Courtney Howard says, “Charming, cute and fairly satisfying, it follows the formula for Netflix branded content that’s typically reserved for their holiday films, going down smoothly and pleasing the palate.”

A Perfect Pairing Cast

The cast of the film includes Victoria Justice, Adam Demos, Emma Kate Lawrence.Released on Netflix on May 19, A Perfect Pairing touches upon our comic sensibilities with the script written by Elizabeth Hackett and Hilary Galanoy. 

In the Crazy Ex-Girlfriend director, McDonald’s A Perfect Pairing, Lola Alvarez (Victoria Justice) privileges her clients’ happiness over hers. Though as sales director at a wine distribution company, she loves her job, she ends up hating her condescending boss Calder (Craig Horner). With her romantic life on pause after a divorce a few years prior, she used her busy work schedule as a means not to fall in love again. 

Another review by Digital Spy's Deputy Movies Editor, Gabriella Geisinger says, “There is one explicitly queer character who is a totally normal person without heaps of trauma nor a tragic subplot (what a concept!) and no 'funny, chubby friend' to serve as the comedic punching bag.”

The review further adds, “We've seen many fish-out-of-water rom-coms before. Unlikely people in unlikely places having to adapt and overcome challenges, falling in love along the way. What makes A Perfect Pairing feel slightly fresher than most is the sheer energy of its lead.”

She concluded saying, "What the movie does best is not put too much emotional strain on its thin script. It doesn't deal with the big issues that other films try to tackle and fail. You might find yourself thinking 'that's dumb' or 'that's impossible' but in the end, A Perfect Pairing knows exactly what it is – cheesy, escapist fantasy that moves at a clip – and on those counts, it delivers."
