I know, maybe they think it will resonate with the audience more if the character is being forced into the path of a lawyer or doctor against their will, and that dropping out will free them to make their own, less stifling choices.

This movie is very loosely based on Shakespeare's play Much Ado About Nothing, with the lead characters Bea and Ben as analogs for Beatrice and Benedick in the original play. The line "some Cupid kills with arrows, some with traps" is directly pulled from it. It makes sense why they would want to adapt it for modern day, since Beatrice and Benedick were kind of the OG romcom couple that hate each other but actually love each other. The main difference is that the play has some of the wittiest dialogue in the English language, and Beatrice is an iconic badass who we stan. Meanwhile Bea is....... a blonde girl in a romcom lol

That's not even a bad thing here.... I think even the awkward delivery of the jokes is something to a niche audience (looking at you, brazilian Gen Z) and the tone of the movie is pretty consistent, it can actuall get good sometimes. But the soundtrack was just SO off. Like.... Except the one song that was in the script, not ONE song matches what's going on on-screen. THEY HAVE A DANCE SCENE WHERE THE FUCKING MUSIC IS OFF. And you might be thinking "oh, you're a musician, normal people don't notice that" YES THEY DO, they just don't know they do. But if the music is off, the movie doesn't hit as hard. Overall, I think the actors had chemistry, some jokes land, jome jokes land and then fly off before they become awkward, some set-ups have great pay-offs. And it's great to see a budget that is not enough to end hunger in Haiti for once. But the movie is actually done in the editing room, and the editing here killed a lot of potential. Tt's like alex said: It could have been great, it's sad it was so mid.

The movie is a modern day adaptation of Shakespeare's play Much Ado About Nothing. The plot is similar (minus jealous step-brother wanting to ruin lives), the characters literally have the same names (Benedict & Beatrice and Claudio & Hero) and everyone is trying to trick the other into realising their true feelings. The title of the play literally means, making a big deal out of nothing, which is centric to the relationship of Ben and Bea who feel a connection but want to protect themselves. There are references to the play throughout the movie, such as that guessing game they play and Shakespeare's quotes are featured throughout. It's 2024 but humans literally have the same problems as they did in the Elizabethan era. Literature is forever so this movie was great.

I don't usually watch rom-coms, but I got free tickets to this one, and I know my mom watches a lot of rom-coms and she's also one of those people that watches like every hallmark Christmas movie that's on TV around Christmas and then actually goes looking for more of Netflix, so I though she'd enjoy this movie, so I brought her, and yes, she did enjoy it, said it was the better than her Christmas movies, so I'd say for the target audience, it seemed to work. Personally, I also though it was an OK time. It was over the top and maybe not very convincing, but never during the movie was I bored either and I chuckled several times. I hadn't watched a rom-com in maybe 2 or 3 years, and I'm probably good for another 2-3 years now, but I enjoyed it enough for the duration of the movie.

The "not fighting" thing is actually a problem in relationships, so I can understand the reasoning when she says she and her ex-fiance didn't fight and thats why she broke it off. Although that's more in the context of both people feeling like they've ''settled' and they don't want to rock the boat in fear of tipping it over. Whereas in healthy relationships you can argue with your partner every once and a while, self-assured in both the strength of your partnership and love for each other. Arguing about laundry won't make you worry you're going to break up. If you 'don't fight' aka 'suppress fights by suppressing your feelings' you're just going to end up with pent up anger that's just going to pop up somewhere else. Regularly communicating honestly about your feelings (good or bad) is what strong and lasting relationships are built on.

“Discussing” (or maybe “arguing”) means to compare points, express your opinion and reach a compromise. “Fighting” means you feel angry and you want to make the other person feel responsible for your anger so you blame them until either your anger subsides or both of you are so frustrated that you say and do things just to hurt the other person and to not “lose” the argument. Discussing is fine (although many happy couples also do this rather infrequently I think) while fighting is not. Everyone who says it’s normal to fight in a relationship where you should be able to trust in and lean on another person and find comfort in knowing that they have your back… well they should probably work on themselves first and then on their communication expectations.

Would have made so much more sense if she trashed his car or something so there‘s actual awkwardness and hate. Also I somehow went in thinking their hate thing had been going on for years (possibly childhood) which made me so excited and probably why I was so disappointed by the setup and the very mild payoff. I need that payoff in an enemies to lovers situation come ooon it‘s what makes it good 😭 I actually loved Sydney‘s acting though, that airplane cookie scene made me laugh tears!

Elden rings Caelid being used for when they get off the plane to Australia as the background is absolute gold if you think about it with the animals and such over there

I loved it, it brought back that romcom magic for me that old movies used to have

I also love the whole "we need to pretend to be in love so my family stops trying to get me back with my perfect ex, who I broke up with because things were too perfect" "Yes I'm down, but also people need to understand that we're not serious so I can hook up with MY flighty ex" Like??? Just have it to where they both want to pretend because they're being pushed into a relationship they don't want. Or at least do SOMETHING with the plot, like having to balance pretending to be deeply in love in one scene and then pretending to only sort of like eachother but still putting out vibes that you're not serious in another
