Romantic comedies hold a special place in our hearts, particularly when they involve lovable canine companions. Just in time, Amazon’s Freevee comes to the rescue with a preview of a film that ticks all the right boxes. The premiere of Puppy Love, starring Lucy Hale and Grant Gustin, is set to air on the free streaming platform on August 18.
FILMSWEEP’S HIGHLIGHT REEL
The storyline of Puppy Love revolves around the “free spirit” Nicole (Hale) and the introverted Max (Gustin), who connect on a dating app. Their initial encounter is far from perfect, but it seems their dogs have a different story. When Nicole’s dog becomes pregnant with Max’s dog, they decide to remain a part of each other’s lives for their pets’ sake and the imminent arrival of puppies. As with any classic romantic comedy, the couple initially seems incompatible, but they soon realize there’s more to each other than initially perceived.
The preview delivers all the elements rom-com enthusiasts appreciate. It depicts Nicole coping with a breakup and a friend of Max’s asserting Nicole is beyond his reach. The contrasting personalities between the two, which get highlighted as events bring them closer, also become evident. For fans of dog-centric movies, the preview includes scenes like a spaghetti dinner reminiscent of Lady and the Tramp. It effectively combines the best elements of both genres as the protagonists gradually fall in love amidst their canine chaos.
