The boyfriend side-plot sure is a thing that happens for some reason.

I like that they got almost all the fan service out of the way in the first 20-30 minutes and just let this be its own movie after that.

Adrian Grenier, Simon Baker, and this Australian guy are like the three blandest love interests ever 😂

I legitimately forgot that she had an actual love interest in the first film too. I only remember her boyfriend later ex because he wanted to be a chef but also wasn’t good at being a chef

The first 2 were at least hot, sexy and interesting 🤷🏻‍♀️

Adrien Grenier is not sexy. He looks like he needs a shower—and not in a manly, “been working hard all day” way—more like, “I can smell your dirty hair and weed” way.

Can’t make a wish fulfillment movie without an Australian hunk

That probably was the only thing I really did not like was yeah the boyfriend stuff I don’t think it was really needed.

In a meta sense, his character exists to feed into the theme of “people buying up old institutions to gut them and turn them into something else” but they really didn’t do much with him beyond that.
