My Fake Boyfriend

In order to help his friend Andrew get over his on-again, off-again relationship with Nico, Jake creates an AI boyfriend, Cristiano. Cristiano becomes a huge online influencer. Andrew then meets and falls for restauranteur, Rafi. Andrew wants Cristiano shut down, as does Jakes’s wife Kelly, but Jake refuses as he is feeling successful in managing the AI.

The film has a 67% rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on nine reviews. Lena Wilson of The New York Times gave the film a positive review and wrote, "To set expectations, it’s best to think of My Fake Boyfriend as two movies." Jayne Nelson of Radio Times awarded the film three stars out of five and wrote, "There are few surprises, but a watchable cast and a gentle, wry script work wonders to keep a tired old formula feel fresh." Graeme Guttmann of Screen Rant awarded the film two and a half stars out of five and wrote, "Lonsdale carries this love story, even if it spends a little too much time focused on its outlandish premise and not enough time exploring the actual romance." ==References==
