    Nicole Kidman is such a good actress, but for the past ten years or so I can't take her seriously because her face is so frozen. It really takes me out of whatever I'm watching.

      @nikkio.9990 Před 11 dny +1

      Agreed. I love her. Moulin Rouge is one of my favorite films of all time, but now I just find myself staring at her bizarre face.

    Not Kathy Bates being the cutest of the main cast.

    Kathy Bates looked absolutely gorgeous in this film!! She’s soooo incredible in everything she does 😊

    It’s definitely a have in the background watch. Zac and Nicole’s faces were so uncanny valley 🫥

  • @jandmvideos9051

    The biggest issues with this movie are that it is both boring and annoying, and because of Joseph, I couldn’t stop thinking about out how bad Nicole’s wig is.

  • @Bexinnamon
    @Bexinnamon Před 14 dny +4

    Thanks for pointing out the awful wigs 😂 that yellow blonde hair irked me. And the Malibu house surprised me in the beginning i was like she's a rich girl acting like she's struggling

    • @supervixen8556
      @supervixen8556 Před 20 dny +2

      Living Out Loud is a great film and this film isn’t worth the crap on the sidewalk Holly Hunter could’ve walked over the streets of Harlem going to the Jazz club. That film was excellent and so underrated!

    @SeekingGodsWill Před 20 dny +4

    Zac Efron is a damn fine actor. This Joey King I think just took a huge leap in her career/skill. She did such a good job here playing off the other actors around her. She was so damn believable, and I am inspired by her performance. Nicole Kidman looks like they have to use CGI on her face. I'm not joking there are a few shots I think are touched up with CGI. She does a good job though as the Mom, like a pretty damn good job.
    I unexpectedly really enjoyed this movie. Fun to hear you fellas discuss this one. Best to you.

    • @Msanabanana1973
      @Msanabanana1973 Před 8 dny +1

      Yes, in some scenes Nicole has absolutely no wrinkles or lines under her eyes - it looked super weird and I couldn’t figure out what that was about, but CGI explains it 😂

  • @puspavelai8353
    @puspavelai8353 Před 23 dny +4

    Joseph's line of questioning the daughter's logic of 'protecting rich Mom' angle was honest! Maybe low in the comedic... I mean, got me thinking the script was trying to be clever by switching roles of a "concerned Mother" to a daughter instead - but it still falls flat🤨

  • @jucxox
    @jucxox Před 22 dny +3

    Ok I need to pause this one and go watch the movie first now lol

  • @Bexinnamon
    @Bexinnamon Před 14 dny +2

    I stopped the movie halfway to come here...so far it's not giving 😬 I needed some Fish Jelly shady review to help me😂😂😂😂

  • @ACF1972JHB
    @ACF1972JHB Před 23 dny +8

    ‘They don’t walk among normal people’. This sounds like a long advertisement for designer label consumption aspiration. The title made me think this would be a GRADUATE inspired situation. 😂
    Whatever happened to the formidably talented Ms Kidman’s delightful freckles and beautiful curly red hair? Covering the freckles may explain the garish make-up (cue Emily Gilmore: ‘The garishness! The garishness!’; cue my horror of knowing anything about that show at that level of detail).

  • @millsykooksy4863
    @millsykooksy4863 Před 19 dny +3

    I thought this movie was unintentionally hilarious. It was such a stupid idea but I actually liked it because it was completely preposterous. I found myself laughing hysterically over the absolute ridiculousness parts of this flick.

  • @AriesSImmer_
    @AriesSImmer_ Před 22 dny +5

    What is Zac doing to his face. It looks bloated in interviews, idk it's weird...

  • @mashenka6189
    @mashenka6189 Před 18 dny +3

    I only watched the preview, and I also can’t get past her yellow blonde hair and puffy face. .i loved Nicole in eyes wide shut…she peaked in that movie…now Zac,please…wtf is wrong with his face? He was such a beautiful young man …

    why are big name actors and actresses starring in netflix movies now?

  • @evitagiron
    @evitagiron Před 17 dny +1

    I’m wondering if Joey King’s character is also jealous of her mom’s love life? Meaning the fact that she may not have one. Just a thought…I haven’t seen the film yet

  • @jujutaylor2186
    @jujutaylor2186 Před 23 dny +7

    This sounds terrible. Ive never seen joey king in anything good honestly

  • @laci2966
    @laci2966 Před 19 dny +4

    These two didn’t have chemistry

  • @Penelopepetal
    @Penelopepetal Před 14 dny +2

    Joey King tries extra hard to be cutesy and quirky and she always lands on just being annoying.

  • @katiacomk
    @katiacomk Před 19 dny +1

    Love your reviews so much!!! I thought Kathy Bates looked younger than Nicole Kidman 😂😂… and seeing Nicole and Zac kissing gave me the ick. Didn’t see any chemistry. The actress playing Zara has a lot of charisma and potential. Although the situations were very unbelievably (I too noticed the weird scene by the see “isn’t it beautiful 😂”) she carried the film as she was the person who suffered (self-inflicted) the most and had an arch. I think 2 is a generous score but I suppose I did end up being sucked in (mostly in disbelief and hoping it to get better because of the quality of these actors).

    Such a pity the script was not strong, everything else looked like this could be good, cast and director both standouts to me

    I couldn’t get past Nicole’s crap wig. She always wears the most obvious wigs. She’s a blonde and didn’t need a wig!

    • @flowrinse9671

      Maybe she losing hair? So unnecessary if not…

    Zack looks like He-man 😮 It’s also strange that he’s super tanned and Nicole is sooo pale 😅

    @redrumblond Před 20 dny +2

    Sounds boring and more writing by out of touch people you called it Joseph. I do love Kathy Bates also. But who is writing these movies? And i think Nicole is well past 50 isn't she?? Lol 😂
    I gotta see this just for the wigs 😂

    The problem with this movie was the daughter. The daughter is meant to be 24 but acts like a 13 year old. The daughter is what ruined this movie.
