The movie Holidate came out on Oct 28, 2020, starring Emma Roberts and Luke Bracey. It is a romance, comedy movie you can watch on Netflix. Holidate is rated TV-MA for language, smoking, and inappropriate humor.

Holidate is about two strangers fed up with being single on holidays, agree to be each other’s platonic plus-ones all year long, only to catch real feelings along the way

According to Rotten Tomatoes the critic score out of 100 is 45% and the audience score is 41%. Mary Sollosi is a critic who describes it as “mediocre.” I would describe this movie as predictable because from the beginning you could see what was going to happen. It was also hard to get into the movie and feel for the characters because some of the humor covers over the emotions.

I would recommend this movie as a watch in the background movie for young adults because it was really easy to follow along. You could understand what is going on even if you only watched half of the movie.
