Isn’t It Romantic features an overweight architect Natalie (Rebel Wilson), who, as you must have guessed by now, thinks she is not up for love, because why would anybody love her! Other usual tropes of body positivity films such as a hot but ill-mannered guy, a lovable co-worker and a gay friend without any real job are used leisurely. However, the problem is that director Todd Strauss-Schulson has ended up a victim of all those things he intends to make fun of.
It might have looked like a smart move in the beginning as it would help the audience identify with the clichés, but then nobody actually takes them away from the shining world free of faded benches and uncovered manholes. What is designed as a funny commentary offers nothing more than what it preaches against.
