I really liked the lead girl and it's a cute enough rom-com

3/10

Warrants a full swipe left. It completely whiffs on its potential and fails to deliver much by way of comedy or an engaging romance.

1/5

Despite its almost entirely Asian-Australian cast, and an engaging central performance from Hu, Five Blind Dates is painfully devoid of serious laughs or genuine romance. The courtship it depicts is tired and unconvincing.

Five Blind Dates leans too hard into romantic comedy cliches, so much so it drowns itself in it. But it is not all bad.

4/5

While Five Blind Dates leans a little too hard on the cliches at first, once the characters settle in this becomes a film where familiarity breeds a lot of fun

I appreciate this movie so much more now given that I just witnessed a horrible adaptation of it lol, I’d much prefer this!

Completely laugh-free... so unless the Asian-Australian angle is something you'd like to see in an Australian rom-com, avoid...

So many RomComs now available with the streaming services that in some ways they're all quite similar. But I liked the dynamics of this and the Chinese culture angle in Australia. In particular, I really thought the tea shop was so quaint and the main protagonist shone brightly on screen.

A typical rom com that plays on Chinese cultural tropes with untraditional possibilities based in Australia. Not groundbreaking. Cringy moments with a predictable ending.

It's the kind of movie that you just want to watch something that wouldn't upset you. Time to kill, my silly, I don't want to think movies, just watch don't analyze.
