"Man cave" guy and "women's studies" feminist fight like cats and dogs on the air at WCV-Chicago during morning drive time. Their show is a hit because people love to hear them argue.
If you're looking for a standard Hallmark Romcom with a bit extra to it, this is the movie for you. She's a career-driven radio adviser to women, always advising her audience to "be an island" (especially after her fiancé dumps her); he's also also in the business, but his métier is single men who want to stay that way.
With a set-up like that, of course they wind up as a wrangling advice couple on the same radio show. Also, inevitably they will fall in love, but they won't figure that out until the end of the movie.
In the meantime, they wrangle, and Alison Sweeney and Jonathan Scarfe are very good at that, speaking in short, clipped, snarky put-downs. Normally I would credit the writer, the actors or the director, but I'd really like to know who the editor of this one is. The cutting, although simple, helps the pace immensely, which is what editing is supposed to do.
There is nothing that is extraordinary in this one, but here's what happens when everyone does a good job: a superior result.
