There are hundreds of romantic comedies like 'Anyone but You', both thematically and in terms of story. In the recent past, I'm thinking of 'Ticket to Paradise' with George Clooney and Julia Roberts, for example. But there is also a reason why this formula is often used. It certainly works well in this movie, thanks in particular to the chemistry between the two leads, Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell.
The middle section is usually the highlight in this kind of movie, because that's where you can expect the most laughs. In this case, this observation also applies. The other parts are a bit overly contrived, but that doesn't bother too much.
Overall, 'Anyone but You' manages to accomplish its most important task: it is entertaining and holds your attention. No surprises should be expected, but to be fair, that was certainly never the objective.
