Separate Checks

About This Movie

Separate Checks has this laid-back vibe that captures the awkwardness of starting over after a tough breakup. Greg, our protagonist, is a bit of a mess, which makes his relationship with the composed Libby all the more interesting. The pacing is kind of relaxed, matching the more subdued emotional beats. It explores themes of vulnerability and the struggle to find balance in new relationships, which feels really relatable. The performances have this genuine quality, though they lean into caricature at times. The practical effects aren't anything fancy, but the humor is grounded enough to make it enjoyable. It's one of those films that captures the awkward dance of modern dating without taking itself too seriously.
