Verdict: The best thing about this Netflix original was by far the characters and their chemistry. They were relatable, likable, and well portrayed for the most part. Other than that, I felt like "Set It Up" was pretty similar to every generic rom-com to ever come out. The dialogue was more than once cheesy, the plot predictable from the very first scene, and the jokes average at best. The soundtrack was probably the worst part of the film and the only aspect of it that I genuinely disliked. This is not a movie I'd recommend if you're looking for something original and smart, but if you're searching for something light that will leave you with a smile on your face, it'll probably do the trick.
Final Grade: 5/10
