“The Way Things Used 2 B wears its heart on its low-rise jeans...the short comedy is a clear love letter to early-2000s rom-coms, leaning hard into nostalgia, character-driven humor, and the comforting predictability of the genre."
“A nice, feel-good story about making life-changing decisions and finding romance. The uplifting story, the humour and the soundtrack make this an experience that is amusing and worthy of recognition.”
“The film employs tropes and imagery that dominated the romcoms from the early 2000s, and does so with an endearing and uplifting wholeheartedness that remains unmissable throughout.”
