Materialists (out Jun 12) is a romantic comedy for those who are a little sceptical of romantic comedies. It's about a not-always-likeable New York matchmaker (Dakota Johnson) who finds herself pursued by two worthy suitors (Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans). A few subplots don't work but the dialogue is well crafted, the cinematography impresses, and the use of continuous takes adds weight to key conversations. Grade: B+.
