Cha Cha Real Smooth

In this tenderly paced and authentically rendered comedy-drama, Cooper Raiff shines as Andrew, a 22-year-old college graduate navigating his uncertain future in post-college New Jersey. As he leverages his charismatic social skills to hustle gigs as a party starter at seemingly endless bar and bat mitzvahs, he forms an unlikely bond with a young mom, Domino (Dakota Johnson), and her autistic daughter, Lola (Vanessa Burghardt). With Raiff's remarkable chemistry with co-star Dakota Johnson and the film's genuinely real environment, Cha Cha Real Smooth delivers an emotionally impactful story that explores themes of friendship, healing, depression, and late coming-of-age.
