Nicholas explained how Hayes’ tattoo of a thistle was a nod to Hayes’ Scottish heritage, which is never actually touched on within the film but only adds to the depth of character.However, once he picked out his tattoos, he realised he had to actually sit in the makeup chair and get them etched onto his body almost everyday, leaving him negotiating with the makeup team to only get the ones definitely in shot."

[@44ThaNatos44]

Fully agreeing with you, and I feel like it's the same argument as in the Anyone but you case : people crave predictability in rom-coms. That doesn't make them bad movies, it just makes them movies suited perfectly for their "niche" audience. And I put niche into quotes cause this category seems to be quite popular. Anyway, yes it's not as interesting as a thriller or movie with a twist would be, but very few movies could pull off rom-com with a twist and not end up disappointing every one. La La Land comes to mind and that's about it. Maybe that explains the decent 80% on Rotten Tomatoes, people know what they bargain for before watching this movie : either they still do and are happy with the predictability, hence their satisfaction, or they drop it and move on with their life which is perfectly fine.

YES one of the weirdest things was how they didn't deal with any of the problems that would arise from any relationship between a 24yo and a 40yo. It's all the "dating a popstar" tropes while completely ignoring the age thing except for what people think. They also have nothing in common, it's so hard to buy into the relationship past the initial attraction.

It was so strange seeing Anne Hathaway in this type of movie. She looked like she was phoning it in, which may be the reason I felt her co-star was able to keep up with her. Also, as someone who lives in LA, it fascinates me how all these characters live in houses. Her home is easily a 2 to three million dollar house. AND she owns and art gallery while joking that she didn't have enough money to be in the NYC art scene. Sigh. Can't these women ever be nurses or teachers or work an office job?

No woman buys a ticket to watch another woman teach algebra or process quarterly reports. Women buy tickets to see other women living the lives they wish they live.

Besides the fact that this was basically a Wattpad movie, my 2 main issues with this movie was 1. The daughter seemed waaaay too cool with her mum dating a young famous pop star and 2. The ending seemed too convenient with the fact that 5 years had passed yet Solène and Hayes were in the same place in their lives and careers and nothing had really changed. I really thought Solene and Hayes would bump into each other after 5 years and he would be married with a couple kids or something.

The daughter was so way cool with it, they had to break up because of how negatively it was affecting her.

I think it's implied that 5 years later Hayes is a solo artist and not as big and the boyband is smaller. Also Solene went from 40-45 its not crazy that she hasn't found someone especially if secretly she's holding out hope for Hayes.

It actually isn’t. The writer says that watt pad narrative has been taken and used for click bait. She even said it’s not really based on Harry Styles but when she pitched it she compared the main lead to Harry’s level of superstardom and since he’s a big name that’s why they keep saying it’s inspired by Harry. Also the two main characters were originally black but she changed the races to white because no one wanted to publish it the way it was originally written. And it had a different more realistic ending but they changed that too so it would be more tropey and watt paddy because apparently that’s what sells.
