Cailey Fleming as Bea standing next to Blue in an old-fashioned apartment in IF

Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Considering John Krasinski's two most recent directorial efforts were A Quiet Place and its sequel, it's a bit surprising how much of a complete 180 his new movie IF is.

Related Where To Watch IF: Showtimes & Streaming Status John Krasinski and Ryan Reynolds' new movie has arrived. Here is where to watch IF in theaters with showtimes or at home on streaming or digital. Along with cranky Cal , who acts as a sort of caretaker for the various IFs, Bea soon decides there's only one thing to do with her newfound ability: Help them all find new homes. All the IFs need new kids so they don't disappear. The specifics of that particular process are never really discussed. IF as a whole is more interested in the imaginary friends themselves and what they symbolize on a much broader level.

Because IF leads with its heart, the actual plot doesn't run quite as smoothly. It takes some time for Bea to meet the IFs and accept her new job, and once that happens, the movie settles into a predictable rhythm. At times, it almost feels like Krasinski got too caught up in all the ideas he had for this story. Despite the clunkier elements, though, IF pushes through with its warmth and optimistic tone, paving the way for some truly effective moments.
