Every now and again a rom-com drops that has a rewatchability component that is bar none. You know what I’m talking about, the type of rom-com that you’d throw on whether you were browsing cable channels or going through a list of brand new streaming releases. The type of rom-com you’ve watched so many times you know lines like “You have a baby. In a bar.” The type of releases that make best all-time rom-com lists. I wanted You, Me & Tuscany to be that rom-com. Indeed, it was delightful when I saw it during release week, but I'm getting very concerned about the future of this rom-com, and rom-coms in general.
If you’ve seen You, Me & Tuscany, by now you probably know it features a charming Italian family, a very wet Regè-Jean Page and a lot of wine-drinking. It’s also landing reasonably good reviews from the critics (CinemaBlend gave it a 3/5), and audiences on Rotten Tomatoes are especially bullish, handing it an impressive 93% rating. That hasn’t translated to box office, however.
