Bomb and June, two app startup founders, are leading each of their teams to get their mobile applications off the ground and running. They meet each other at their favorite hideaway dinner place completely by chance, only to find that they have a lot in common and enjoy very same passions. The night is so inspiring that Bomb and June, individually, create and launch their own applications, "Inviter" and "Amjoin," with the very same idea to "find people in common." But when it comes to business, replicates mean competition. Bomb and June become rivals. The national Startup Thailand league is approaching, and they are struggling to win 100-million Thai baht prize. When the stakes are high, "Inviter" and "Amjoin" end up sending a spy sneaking into the other team trying to gain the upper hand. But everything has its price to pay, as the plan gets out of control, and the relationship between the two are being jeopardized. (Source: IMDb) Edit Translation

Simple but Fun and Engaging Rivals/Friends to Lovers Tale

Look, I'm not going to lie. It's a simple plot. Boy meets girl. They instantly hit it off. Girl has boyfriend and they don't talk. They meet up again later down the line and it's like nothing happened. Except now theyre rivals pining for funding for their competing app start-ups. Add in some espionage hijinks and friendship messages, and you get a movie that's not entirely unlike what you may have watched when younger.

However, it was *very* engaging. How far would the espionage go? When would the gig get called off? Will they ever decide to just work together and create one app with both of their strengths combined? And somehow, every time I though we would hit such plot points, we didn't. I also loved how even some of the small things came full-circle by the end of the movie.

And then there were the budding romance scenes. Their balance of being rivals and being friends/mutual crushes was just excellently done. They really did forget they were rivals for a period there. They were just two people working towards their ideas and cheering each other on quietly. And the laser tag get-togethers? They had me grinning so much, lol.

I think this movie is good and honestly it made me a bit emotional (I'm just an emotional person though).

Story:
The story is as it says, June and Bom meet one day after a Start Up competition they had dinner with each other and they find that they have so many things in common. Being that they are both deal with apps, they both come up with the same idea of making an app where you can meet people with the same interests. But that also meant they were competing against each other.

Honestly, the plot isn't that crazy. I personally think they should've done more with the romance plot. Sometimes I think even though the chemistry is there, there wasn't enough of that. The story was more on how the apps were similar rather than the relationship between the two. The best way I can describe the plot is that it's predictable, but not in a bad way. I didn't know how this movie was go since I don't normally watch these types of movies, but I'm glad I gave it a chance. It's just not my type of movie.

Acting:
The acting was pretty good. I love the chemistry between the cast. I could literally feel the chemistry between June and Bom because JingJing and Nat conveyed it very well. Sometimes to the point where I wish it was a romance rather than a app development story.

Overall:
Did I like the movie? Yes, the movie was made very well and I enjoyed it. Is it my taste? Not really, since it was labelled as a romance as well I was expecting more romance stuff, but it was nice for a change. Would I watch it again? Honestly, I would. The movie is quite long for my liking, but it isn't that bad and I liked the plot so I would most definitely rewatch the movie. I give this movie overall 8/10.
