No Stranger Than Love is a romantic comedy directed by Nick Wernham and released in 2015. The movie features Alison Brie as Lucy Sherrington, a high school art teacher who falls in love with a man who disappears into a mysterious hole in her living room floor. The movie begins with Lucy preparing for a date with her boyfriend, Rydell Whyte, played by Colin Hanks. However, Rydell fails to show up, leaving Lucy alone and disappointed. Later that night, she discovers a strange hole in her living room floor that seems to lead nowhere. When she tosses a photo of Rydell into the hole, something unexpected happens - the photo disappears and Rydell's voice can be heard coming from the hole.

Lucy soon realizes that the hole is a portal that connects her living room to an alternate dimension. After several failed attempts to rescue Rydell, Lucy meets a stranger named Clint Coburn, played by Justin Chatwin, who claims to know how to navigate the portal. In the process of trying to save Rydell, Lucy and Clint develop feelings for each other, leading to a love triangle that complicates their efforts to rescue Rydell.

Throughout the movie, Lucy's small town community becomes obsessed with the mysterious hole, which leads to some humorous side stories, including a group of men who try to market the hole as a tourist attraction. Meanwhile, Lucy and Clint's relationship becomes increasingly complicated as they struggle to reconcile their feelings for each other with their desire to save Rydell.

Despite its quirky concept, No Stranger Than Love delivers a relatable message about the complexities of love and the lengths we will go to in order to hold onto the people we care about. The movie's strong performances by Alison Brie, Justin Chatwin, and Colin Hanks make the characters feel believable and emotionally grounded, even in the midst of a fantastical storyline. Additionally, the movie's light-hearted tone and charming humor make for an enjoyable viewing experience.

Overall, No Stranger Than Love is a charming and unconventional romantic comedy that delivers a unique twist on the genre. While the concept may at first seem silly or overly fantastical, the movie ultimately tells a heartfelt and relatable story about love, loss, and the unpredictable nature of the universe. Fans of quirky rom-coms, Alison Brie, or Justin Chatwin should definitely give this movie a try.

No Stranger Than Love is a 2016 romance movie with a runtime of 1 hour and 29 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.8 and a MetaScore of 29.
