Your Place or Mine 2023

Your Place or Mine (2023) is a Netflix romantic-comedy written and directed by Aline Brosh McKenna, marking her directorial debut . Best friends Debbie (Reese Witherspoon) and Peter (Ashton Kutcher) share a platonic bond since a one-night stand in 2003. She’s a single mother in LA; he's a commitment-shy bachelor in NYC. They swap homes for a week—Debbie helps Peter with her son, while he explores her life and career. As they step into each other’s shoes, they begin questioning if they’re more than just friends.🎭 Critics Rotten Tomatoes: 30% critics, 35% audience. Common criticisms: Lack of chemistry between the leads. Over-reliance on split-screen dialogue that weakens romantic tension. Formulaic, warmed-over rom‑com structure.Praise: Some outlets find it lighthearted and enjoyable if kept to low expectations.Media outlet AP noted it’s “leisurely,” touching on friendship, love, and taking chances, and gave it 2½/4 stars. Tom’s Guide highlighted mixed reviews, mentioning a few positive voices like Hollywood Reporter praising its pleasant, unambitious charm.👍 Who Might Enjoy It If you like gentle, familiar rom‑coms with known stars, and enjoy viewership comfort over novelty, this might suit you. But if you crave spark, chemistry, or fresh storytelling, critics suggest there are better options.🗣️ Audience Feedback Reddit users pointed out:“It was hard to buy the romance … they barely in the same scenes together.”While some did find it cozy and nostalgic, many viewed it as generic and uninspired.📊 Viewership Performance (Streaming) Netflix reported approximately 163 million hours viewed (≈ 88 million equivalent full-viewings) between release and June 2023, making it the 6th most-watched Netflix movie of 2023. During its first weekend release, it achieved around 27.7 million viewing-equivalent viewings (CVE), marking one of Netflix’s strongest rom‑com openings, though slightly behind He’s All That (2021). In the week of February 13, 2023, it maintained the #1 film spot on Netflix, logging 53.8 million hours viewed within its first 10 days.📝 Conclusion Your Place or Mine (2023) is a light, inoffensive romantic comedy featuring big-name stars Reese Witherspoon and Ashton Kutcher. While it has a charming setup and some heartwarming moments, the film suffers from a lack of on-screen chemistry and predictable storytelling. It’s an easy watch for fans of cozy, low-stakes rom-coms—but if you're looking for a more emotionally engaging or fresh take on the genre, this likely won’t leave a lasting impression. Read More
