Palm Springs (2020) ***1/2

Palm Springs (2020) is a clever (but not too clever) little dramedy that successfully blends the concept of Groundhog Day (1993) (my review here) (not the first story to use a time loop, but the most well-known) with a more traditional rom-com. It's charming enough to appeal to a mass audience but subversive, sarcastic and dark enough to appeal to those that like their comedies are bit more black. It's definitely not a challenging film but a breezy one that hits just right if you need a pick-me-up and feels like the type of film that has great replay value.
