Out Of Sight (1998)
Certainly one of the most anticipated aspects of The Lovebirds is the expected chemistry between Kumail Nanjiani and Issa Rae, as they are two super funny people who should work really well together – and it’s in reflection of that that Steven Soderbergh’s Out Of Sight lands on this list. Based on the Elmore Leonard novel of the same name, this is another title that does an amazing job blending comedy, romance, and crime, and it’s also packed with an excellent cast including Ving Rhames, Albert Brooks, Don Cheadle, Steve Zahn, and more, but it’s really every moment between George Clooney and Jennifer Lopez that makes this movie something really special. It’s actually perhaps setting too high a bar for The Lovebirds to reach, but we can call it a best case scenario for the upcoming film if it can create that kind of energy..
