Don't get me wrong, Palm Springs is very entertaining. There were many hilarious scenes, the beginning was brilliant.
But story-wise there is nothing new to see here. This has been done plenty of times before. People seem to love this time loop thing - I love it too.
The filmmakers had to find some likeable actors, and a nice love story and voila - they had a good film. These actors are doing great by the way.
But a rating above 7 is questionable.
I know several innovative and great movies with a lower rating,
I wouldn't criticise Palm Springs in terms of its believability because it's a science-fiction fairy tale. Even if the female lead, Sarah, did her master's degree in quantum physics as homework. She figures out what's going on inside a time loop wormhole that alters reality strings. And how to escape from it. ... sure thing.... Wouldn't we all do that?
But it is an entertaining and cute movie.
