The lack of originality and occasional on-the-nose dialogue cancel out most of its rewatch value, but it’s hard not to be affected in the moment by the sincerity of its storytelling and the chemistry between Robinson and Jones.

The showy structure overwhelms the unshowy story. All the frantic time-jumping and self-important narrating leaves little room for Charlie and Harper to simply breathe.

"Charlie Harper" has heart; it’s just difficult to keep track of and identify it at times.

There is no shortage of appetite for films about toxic romances, especially ones with attractive leads, but you’ll likely forget about this story the moment you step out of the theater.
