Nick Evans (Damon Wayans Jr.) is looking for love in all the wrong places. He subscribed to an online dating website called Love, Guaranteed to find companionship, and despite going on over 1,000 dates he’s still single and lonely. Fed up, he hires lawyer Susan Whitaker (Rachel Leigh Cook) to sue them for false advertising, but as the two work on the case, they fall for each other. Is love guaranteed for Nick if he pursues Susan?
Like most 2020 movies, Love, Guaranteed was overshadowed by COVID and lockdown drama. It deserves some love, though, due to its charming leads and unique plot. Everyone can relate to Nick’s frustrations with online dating, and the movie uses that as a way to bring its two reluctant lovebirds together. Love, Guaranteed also gives Wayans Jr. a rare lead role to show off his amazing comedic skills, which most fans of the cult TV show Happy Endings are already acutely aware of and appreciate.
