Unreliable and unlikeable

I love hiking and everything outdoors and had really high hopes for this one. This could have been a great movie but it's so badly executed and I had to stop halfway in. The main caracter, Helen, is very unlikeable and her rudeness feels forced just so the writers could complete the "enemies to lovers" plot. Why was she constantly rude and even obnoxious towards Jake when all he ever did was be nice to her? But, "I remember when you used to be fun", what kind of out of place clichè line is that? When was she ever fun?! Felt very forced and unnatural like most of the dialogue. Extremely unbelievable that he would continue to be into her all those years. Maybe it could have been saved if they had done a better job with the background story. And how did he go from clean shaven to an almost full beard overnight? It's like they didn't even try to make a good and believable story.

You feel no connection with any of the characters who are all (except maybe Hugh) very unlikable. Every scene and dialogue is rushed and forced and when they try to be funny it just comes off as rude and disrespectful instead. It's giving very bad B-movie. Hard pass on this one!
