MEANRANK
74/100
Every rating
Simon is a young man with Asperger’s Syndrome who thrives on routine and order. His carefully structured world is shattered when his brother’s girlfriend moves in, disrupting their long-established patterns. Convinced that she is the cause of his brother’s unhappiness, Simon decides she must be replaced. He embarks on a mission to find his brother a new, “perfect” girlfriend, applying his unique, logical, and often hilariously inappropriate criteria to the search, which leads to a series of unexpected and touching encounters.
