The movie isn’t about David and Sarah falling in love, but rather about them running out of reasons *not* to be together. The chemistry between Colin Farrell and Margot Robbie – he with a natural charm, she radiating even with unusual costumes – suggests they *should* be a couple. This raises an interesting question: even if someone claims to be happy alone, do they owe it to themselves to explore a good relationship? However, the film, *A Big Bold Beautiful Journey*, doesn’t really explore that idea. It assumes David and Sarah are just avoiding deeper problems and turns into a predictable, somewhat bland, journey of self-discovery where they overcome their personal issues to find happiness as a couple. Instead of therapy, they’re guided by a mystical GPS (voiced by Jodie Turner-Smith) that sends them on a road trip after a wedding, both driving cars rented from a quirky agency run by Kevin Kline and Phoebe Waller-Bridge. This GPS leads them to mysterious doors hidden in the countryside, and each door transports them to important moments from their past.
