Solène, a 40-year-old single mom, begins an unexpected romance with 24-year-old Hayes Campbell, the lead singer of August Moon, the hottest boy band on the planet. When Solène must step in to chaperone her teenage daughter's trip to the Coachella Music Festival after her ex bails at the last minute, she has a chance encounter with Hayes and there is an instant, undeniable spark.

Soooo lame. Several poor script choices make this movie predictable, forgettable, and even bad. There is no chemistry between them. The plot is so idiotic. And to think it was based on a book is funny, like, you needed a book to create this? I mean, any literature undergrad could have made this and better, maybe.

OooKay. We have to start with the important stuff first. LEAVE THIS MAN ALONE!!! Stop exposing him. Let him be a British gay prince or a pop star dating older woman. Let him be! I don't know what I was expecting from a fanfic (another one) but the story wasn't developed well. The acting wasn't really good. First half of the movie i was cringing very hard. I had work to do and stop at the middle of the movie and i forgot to watch the other half which is never good. I didn't expect Anne Hathaway in such movie. I think they have more chemistry in the real life than here . I don't know man it's a fanfic... update: Obviously it's not a fanfic but it's watch like one

"The Idea of You can't seem to find enough standout elements to compensate for the lack of narrative innovation, thematic depth, or compelling execution.

the fantasy here isn't about getting to fuck Harry Styles, it's more about having money to own a house/car in Los Angeles and being able to fly to New York on a whim so you can go fuck Harry Styles

When the love sparks, it does not see age, and ‘The Idea of You’ film portrays the same. The film follows Solène, a 40-year-old single mom who fell in love with a 24-year-old Hayes Campbell, the lead singer of the August Moon band.
