- misunderstanding
- enemies to lovers
- fake dating
- dead mom
- PAXTON HALL YOSHIDA??!!
you got me at paxton😌
NAH BC WHEN I WATCHED THE TRAILER MY GENUINE REACTION TO SEEING HIM WAS QUOTE “ THE PAXTON FREAKING H-Y!”
He was such an unnecessary character but Ig he adds something?
"Why did you break up?"
"Because we never fought."
That's a red flag
It _can_ also be an issue. In some sense it shows one of two probably aren't that invested in the relationship and are just agreeing to get the other person to shut up and placate them...
To sometimes fight at least shows both people care, sometimes... There isn't really any hard and fast rule on this.
Basically just because you don't argue doesn't mean the other person isn't cheating, about to leave you... Etc
@@esmeecampbell7396 yea but it's better than arguing and the other person is cheating, about to leave you, etc.... Never fighting is not the part that's the problem
@@keegster7167 I was saying it isn't a sign everything is OK just because you aren't fighting.
Essentially it's an unreliable measure that doesn't conclusively mean anything, it "could" be positive and it "could" be negative
@@esmeecampbell7396 I think that’s part of it though, it isn’t really developed any further in the movie past “I was too comfortable” and “we never fought”
Not really actually. If there is no "fight" ever, then thats not a relationship. This doesnt mean "fight" is good or "fighting too much" is better. In relationships, disagreements and arguing once in a while has to be haopen becsuse its part of "interaction" and thats called relationship. Learnt from therapist.
Why is it that almost every time a romcom character is in law school or a med school student, they decide to drop out? I'm surprised they didn't show us that Bee's secret passion was becoming a pastry baker.
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.
Where's my romcom???? I dropped out of law school and all I got was eventually getting back with my ex because he broke his leg and had a cute kitten I liked to see so I'd come over. That's not romcom at all.
Hagan una donde el tipo si va a la escuela
@@trinaq I think the dropout rate for those is high so it makes a relatable story. Also i know a lot of pre-med and pre-law don't even go to med or law school, they just get a job after college
That would have been a MAXIMUM CLICHE
Hear me out free movie idea. Two people have to pretend to be in a relationship, they hate each other. They continue to hate each through out the entire film. They don’t fall in love by the end of the movie, it’s just two people who despise each other having to pretend to be together
I love it. Do it.
Yes, I like that idea better, you should totally write that story.
Shut up and take my money
@@trinaq I mean maybe, I however can’t really come up with a good reason for why two people would need to be pretending to date.I mean this reason has to be quite solid since the whole movie revolves around it.
YEAH BUT ENEMIES TO FRIENDS AND THEY GO FROM DESPISING EACH OTHER TO HATING ON OTHER PEOPLE TOGETHER
What is with parents and thinking that it’s cool for them to just invite their child’s ex boyfriend/girlfriend to these big family celebrations? It’s like “Yeah our kid may not like them anymore but I thought he/she was cool and so I’m just gonna make them put up with it”
"Maybe they will make up..." Although, the comments say that it was a ex *fiance,* with who she *broke up because they didn't fought.*
As in, they were getting married but didn't 'cause "reasons"
That’s such a wattpad trope
And parents that supports LGBTQ xd
I hide all of my relationships cause the first time I introduced a guy to my parents, and eventually even our parents met, things went well. But then he turned out to be a literal DRUG DEALER and my parents made me sit with him and his mom to discuss me wanting to break up with him!!!! They still talk about him to this day and it pisses me off
Are we not gonna talk about how this movie feels like an excuse for a bunch of actors to vacation in Australia?
Also holy god the people in this movie are rich. You have a house in Australia that has enough bedrooms for all the wedding guests, you've got like 3 jeeps to drive everyone around, multiple boats, rent or own a yacht or whatever (wouldn't be surprised if they own it)... it's not surprising that the biggest problem in these people's lives is being surrounded by beautiful people you don't get along with momentarily lol
Paxton’s always losing when it comes to Bens 💀
Underrated comment
he really is. never have i ever im good with team ben over here for that, but cant a guy catch a break.
Ohh😂
Lmaooo good one!
I noticed that toooo 😂
If wattpad ever needs money, they just needs to make a teen romcom movie and have Alex review it
They already have.

@@Lady_lulyS2don’t forget Twilight
As if they haven't been doing that for years.
id be absolutely PISSED if my sister acted like this during my wedding weekend like faking a relationship and all these antics for no reason making her sisters moment all abt herself sorry
breaking up with someone because you don't fight enough has got to be the biggest red flag I've ever seen
Um, Bee broke up with her ex because her relationship was too stable.
This movie is just perpetuating the garbage idea that in order to have a successful relationship, there has to be constant chaos.
Y'know it's cool if you get along with the person you love, right?
"If you don't hate being around each other, can you really call it love!?" -Hollywood with its excellent track record of successful long-term relationships
This is exactly why i hate the outcome of the movie. I mean of course the two main characters are gonna end up together but i would have preferred a different ending. Also probably because i found Ben absolutely insufferable.
Yes! I just commented this too!
I'm glad someone pointed this out!
When did we start noticing bad plots in romcoms, i think its fun to just turn off your brain and enjoy it at face value
So...her big sister is getting married and her mother says, "Could have been you...could still be you..." It's her OLDER sister, right? It's sort of natural if the older sister gets married before the younger, right? I don't have a sister, I can't say for certain, but it's more probable. Why is the mom acting like her younger child needs to be pitied?
Maybe they had hoped with her last boyfriend? 🤷🏼♀️ they act like she's 50 and was with a guy for decades
They meant it could’ve been her because they really like her ex and already treated him like part of the family. So the “could’ve been you” had nothing to do with age and everything to do with the previous relationship that she left
no she is the older sister that’s why the parents said it
@@taninisahpanini7:57 Bea is the younger sister. It's Bea's big (older) sister who is getting married.
Pretty sure she was engaged to her ex. Anyway they were referring to her past relationship, not that she should've been married first because of age
Truthfully, as an Australian, I'm convinced Tourism Australia used the money from Covid lockdowns to produce a film. It felt like I was watching a 90-minute corny ad written by a 13-year-old, and I couldn't click skip. I'm actually impressed someone could write such C-grade rubbish and make me feel embarrassed about my own country. I wish they had made the Crocodile Dundee ad into a film instead. Who knows, I actually may have cracked a smile, or at the least stayed awake. On the bright side, it shed light on how my mum manages to fall asleep in a theater during a film she paid to watch.
Jeez
Go off king
16:25 Oooooo.... Alex didn't pay attention! They didn't establish he's a bad swimmer, they established he is hot girl fit... meaning he's got the body of a greek god, but the endurance of... well... me. Swimming out to the boat, it was the distance, not the act that he was struggling at.
You can look good and have bad endurance . Musculation ≠ cardio
"Two showers in eight hours? Get clean king!" is so stupid but I kind of love it
Haven't seen the movie but I love it because of that line 😂
Me too!
I was just going to comment that! It made me feel joyful
Lol, it is rediculous, but I also kind of loved it. I think it probably speaks to the quality of the actor delivering the line. Haha.
MF's character was so out of touch, don't even know why he was there
Movie would've been the same without him
“ the bar is low ladies”
Alex it’s 2024, you are correct.
The bar is low behaviorally if you're hot. If you're average looking the bar is on the freaking moon.
@@305Independent Yeah, not really. I keep seeing beautiful women dealing with questionable looking specimens who are also shit characters..
@@305Independent big time "thinks women are superficial because they like guys over 6', has a list of 50 physical attributes on women's bodies which are deal breakers" energy
@@K.C-2049 he was basically stating that pretty privledge is real, which is undeniable (scientifically, no less). How in the world do you pull any sort of "energy" from that
The bar always has been low for hetersexual woman
Moral of all these fake dating things: if i want somebody i should make up a situation that requires us fake dating until he catches feelings for me 😂
we've cracked the code boys
"I don't care abt your badonkadonk or bazoongas at all... except when you want me to" is just way too real ☠
I had no idea that this was a loose adaptation of Shakespeare's "Much Ado About Nothing", but the overall plot, plus the lead's names being Ben and Bea should have clued me in..
Same, I only just caught on when Alex showed the scene of Ben eavesdropping.
Same!!!!!
I totally missed the names thing. This is offensive tbh. Wtf did they do to my badass queen Beatrice!? 😂
everywhere i go i see you
Yeah, I caught up to that halfway through the video, and thought "Ben and Bea? Really? *forehead smack*"
"Sorry, it's our policy"
Coffee shop employee thinking their cute little policy overrides the law lmao
A few years ago in Alberta (I think) there was this crazy woman at a Tim Hortons who needed the washroom, but the store had a policy like this (it's usually to prevent homeless people and drug addicts from using the bathroom inappropriately). She dropped her pants, shit on the floor, and threw it at employees. The video should be on the internet somewhere.
Thanks to that incident, I'm *never* denying people a bathroom. There's too many crazy people in this world, and I don't need to find out if they're one of them.
@@ameliaduncan3236 Okay, I support shitting her pants to make a point...but not taking them off to shit on the floor, and DEFINITELY not throwing it at employees like a chimpanzee. But at least she taught them not to break the law.
Honestly, despite knowing the reasons behind the "policy", I have zero sympathy for it. People who come in needing a bathroom desperately should NOT be inconvenienced because of random drug dealers and homeless people who they never had anything to do with.
Drug dealers and homeless people are not my fault nor my problem if I enter a public restaurant with a public bathroom that is required to let me use it whether they like it or not.
@@ameliaduncan3236 The fact that places have policies like this to stop people without homes from using the washroom makes it worse. Its also not that "crazy" to protest stupid policies. It's sort of a "well if you won't let me do it the nice way, I guess this is the option you left me" approach to protest.
But if it is law , why is nothing done about it . They put locks on the doors and you have to have a code . But they allow cops to use them if they need to , so the cops don't care !
@@debrh.b Something is done about it if the person denied the bathroom takes things far enough.
Check it out on Google. You can find stories of people pooping their pants on purpose inside the store after the employees lie that the person can't use the bathroom there, and the police come, and the store gets in trouble----not the other person.
The beginning already doesn’t make sense: At the cooffed shop they were acting like it was a business day morning only to spent the entire day doing nothing but talking to each other….
I’m 100% convinced this movie was written by AI. You can actually see how it could’ve worked but it absolutely falls flat at every turn. It is maddening.
This video is just perfection, Alex just voiced my every thought throughout the movie 😂
How could you not talk about the hilarious Australian Chad that swam like a dolphin? That dude was the comedic star of the movie.
"Hey, love the commitment!"
He was the highlight of the movie, i was rolling on the floor lol
i was waiting on this review for so long only for him not to mention the guy
“Your ant eata”
hes such a legend
To sum up the movie
- how many cliché scenes do you want?
- yes!
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.
Thank you for validating my thoughts loll, i couldn't find anyone who pointed out how Sydney Sweeney's line delivery is so...flat. You nailed it, it works for some projects but in order to explore other genres she needs to be able to play characters that don't come as naturally to her. The dialogues felt so off even though there was promise.
Same here! I thought i was just being a hater 😭 so hearing him say that and finding this comment made me feel better
Love that one of his examples of a bad line: “some cupids kill with arrows, some with traps” is actually a line by William Shakespeare from Much Ado About Nothing, the play which this film is (very loosely) based on. I thought he’d mention the source material inspiration somewhere!
When I first watched the movie and Bae snuck out of Ben's place I thought she's late for work or something and was trying to be considerate by not waking him, which would've led to an equally frustrating misunderstanding but at least it would make sense? In the actual movie she's just "Oh I don't know about this..." but then immediately goes back to his place so what's the point
I took it as she was scared to like another guy considering she was with the one her whole life.
I agree, your suggestion would have been a lot better than what actually happened. I mean, why even have that extended sequence if she's just going to sneak right back again? Maybe it was to illustrate her commitment phobic personality at the beginning?
@@trinaqit was so she could overhear ben saying all those terrible things about her because if she hadnt heard him say that she wouldnt hate him and that would f up the trope
She could have gone to get breakfast as an excuse if she was regretting it
I mean people leave one-night stands unannounced all the time, it's not that weird. And she went back because she regretted it.
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
Very loosely!
A ver como harían un romeo y julieta actual todas los programas han hecho un episodio burlándose de esa historia pero seria bueno verlo en una comedia romántica
Maybe she's just too cunning to be understood
Have you seen the BBC's version called 'Shakespeare Retold: Much Ado about Nothin'? Way better story and quality writing.
The banter scenes in the original scripts are hilarious!! "Scratching could not make it worse if it were a face such as yours." 😂😂😂
I think Sydney Sweeney is on a personal quest to make the worst movie of 2024. The top contenders are
1. Madame Web
2. Anyone but You
3. Immaculate
When I watched this movie I cringed so hard I shrunk into my seat and physically clawed at the walls but there were no walls and there was no escape
My dumbass though the title was targeted towards me 😭
Guess you are hilariously dumb
No worries, OP! Lots of folks ITT need to brush up on their reading comprehension it seems lol
OMG hahahahaha
Haha, accurate!
Anyone but you IS hilariously dumb tho. Including me
wait Bea was the main character?? I needed a couple more clumsy scenes from her to know 😭
it's like you can't be a FL with proper hand-eye-coordination. this trope is just so stupid and doesn't make the lead look 'cute' but just brain damaged. I've never met an adult, male or female, who's constantly that 'clumsy' aka dumb as a potato.
3:34 I've done the ole' step on the toilet paper trick when I was in a club years back. However, I clipped her high heel sending her off balance.
I quickly turned around and disappeared into the crowd before I saw if she hit the ground or not.
how are people so starved for rom coms in theatres but it seems like no one is talking about Lisa Frankenstein? It came out right around Valentine's and it's honestly hilarious and was how I celebrated Valentine's Day with my fiancé, it's like a love letter to 80s cult horror-adjacent movies like Edward Scissorhands, Heathers, and Rocky Horror, and it was written by the writer for Jennifer's Body
I only just now noticed how Sydney Sweeney's voice has the same disaffected bored sound like Dakota Johnson...funny how they are both in Madame Web aka the worst movie of 2024
I liked the movie kinda
@@maibrown2755watch more GOOD movie
Sydney Sweeney is a far better actress though, regardless of her voice she actually bothers to express emotions on her face. Dakota has done fifty shades and since then coasted on her nepo-baby status. Sydney was actually pretty damn great in Reality, where it centred entirely on her performance. Idk imo i quite like her as an actress, a lot of American actresses have this sort of voice, she doesn’t really sound that disaffected to me
Paxton hall yoshida making an appearance in this movie was the last thing on my 2024 bucket list

Wait why 😭 lol that actor fits in perfectly with this movie
I'd be more surprised if he wasn't in it tbh
@@_Amit_Sunil WAIT WHAT- does he voice act a character in it or something?? if so..who?
As someone who lives in Sydney, works in Barangaroo where the first scene is filmed, and lives near Alexandria where the snow scene was filmed, I can safely say I've never been more pissed than when I saw it was snowing in Sydney. It does not snow in Sydney. It pissed me off.
Wheres the time stamp?
I’m so happy I came across this video, this creator scratches all the right spots in my brain with the dramatic animation. It’s wonderful
Am I the only person that always AMAZED by the long-term memory people have in rom-coms?
Like, seriously, the amount of couples that meet once and then don’t see each other or talk for + 2 years, meet by chance and immediately recognise/remember each other…. It would be one thing to remember the interaction if it was meaningful, but to remember exactly what they look like with enough confidence to walk right up to them and restart that years old conversation!
If you really want a relatable main character, have the girl completely blank on who the guy is, but she’s such a people-pleaser (and he’s hot, so) she just pretends to know him for the rest of the movie, growing increasingly more confused every time they talk 😂
“Do you remember that kiss we shared?” - “…..yeah…. It was great.”
Not an exact match, but When You Were Sleeping reminds me a lot of this concept haha
I think you might have a problem because usually people remember people 😂 dw I’m the same, like some people would recognize me from years ago (mind you I wasn’t friends or acquainted with them) and I could not at all, so I think I got a problem
Sorry to tell you, but I think you're either really bad with faces or have problems with your memory. I literally remember nearly everyone I talked to for more than 30 minutes during the last 10 years. Ofc I forget names, but not the face, never.
You probably want to start doing sudoku or at least read some books. I remember people from years back and the exact place we last left. its called active listening.
@@anabananapopana Yeah, names are my weakness. I can forget a name 10 seconds after they tell me but remember what they said from 2 years ago.
9:47 is the perfect way to describe Sydney Sweeneys voice. There was something about the way she spoke in the movie that was throwing me off. No hate to Sydney tho, but this is the first time I hear someone talk about it 😭😭

Saw this movie in theatres while absolutely high as a god damn kite and lemme tell you….what an experience. When they called back to the grilled cheese scene just before doing the “devils tango”. I couldn’t stop laughing simply at the fact they left a perfectly good grilled cheese sandwich to go bone and someone is gonna come home and find it, wonder why there is a perfectly good sandwich with one bite in it and the kitchen smells like sex. I’ll tell you folks, I was howling and couldn’t care less that most people were flashing me dirty looks. 10/10 would watch again (high tho…. I’ll only watch it high)
Wait how can the kitchen smell like sex?
11:33-It is the "be-chinning" of an epic rivalry!
The moment I realised this film is based on Much Ado About Nothing, I was genuinely offended
OH MY GOLLY GOSHNESS YOU SEEM TO BE CORRECT
I really hate that play. Not really for what the play does, or is, but for the millions and millions of inspired plot lines based on it. I despise any plot line that could be solved with communication and isn't.
@@edwardallenthreeand the fact that that’s 95% of popular romcoms just miscommunication tropes EVERYWHERE
@@fatoumatacisse3796#1 reason I don't really fuck with romance movies/books. I prefer it as a subplot, but even then the miscommunication can get ridiculous🙃
glad i'm not the only one who was like "...wait a minute"
(though tbh i'm more familiar with AMND and Twelfth Night than Much Ado)
I will never understand why these filmmakers think that being clumsy is cute. I’m clumsy and this is not fun, like last month I fell in the bathroom while cleaning the cat litter and hurt my back real bad, i had a backache for almost a week after that
Truth. Real life clumsy people are terrible in bed cause they don't really have control over their bodies and situational awareness. Not exactly cute
Thank you! I once got a bad head wound cause I sneezed and hit the shelf. Clumsy people are a hazard to themselves. So not cute.😢
I think they put those imperfections in to try to make the MC “relatable”
I stg I’m so sorry that you hurt yourself but why are the clumsy people stories so funny
11:25 holy fuck I physically flinched away from the screen 🤢
the bar really is on the floor, and a lot of people still can't get over it. its astounding.

This movie is an example of if you make your lady too happy for a prolonged amount of time without any drama, she’ll think you’re boring.
I loved it, it brought back that romcom magic for me that old movies used to have
"I love how smart you are and you always try really hard to do stuff and no one knows to reel you except me and I don't care at all about your badongadong or bazongas, except when you want me to. Also I like brunch?"
That was amazing.
The guy that plays Ben was in Scream Queens, and I can't call him anything other than "Chad Radwell"
That character was beyond irritating in scream queen's ,I was glad when he got bumped off .
Sameeee
@gemstar7286 that was the point. The characters weren't likeable on purpose.
@@MyLovelyLife2 Yeah I know but still .
I always remember him as Bagman from Top Gun: Maverick😅
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.
Sydney's terrible acting was so distracting.
Honestly sameeee. I cried at the theatre, I was like I spent 12£ for this 😭 ?? Its so badddd
Okay that "What are you doin!?"
"I'M FROM A DIFFERENT GENERATION!" got a laugh outta me
The whole premise of him being so upset she left is dumb. They had one date. Shrug and move on. And her hating him because she heard him say one mean thing.
Get over it. It was ONE date.
Fr like "you told her about your mom??! You're in love man!"
They just met a couple hours before 😭 and i thought i was delulu bruh lol
I get her being mad because what he said was extremely rude. I wouldn't want to see him after that either. It is weird that he was so upset she left that he said those things though. She could have left for literally any reason (and she came back), on top of the fact that they barely even knew each other. It's like me saying a hate every person I have a nice, but casual, conversation with because they didn't promise me they would keep in touch hahaha.

This tho👏👏👏
I was extremely happy and satisfied with what I got. It's cheesy and formulaic but extremely fun. It knows exactly what it is and doesn't try to be anything else, and I'm totally here for it.
Both leads are extremely charismatic and their chemistry on and off screen is perfect !
I love Much ado About Nothing. That’s scene of Ben overhearing this guys was a dead give away. Might even been real lines form the play.
You should do "You're The Worst". It's a rom com show (pretty short) about 2 people who are kinda shitty people. They start hooking up, have great chemistry, and start actually improving themselves begrudgingly in order to stay together as a couple. It's actually pretty good and an underrated show.
It is so great! I really enjoyed it.
A wonderful show with true character growth and they feel like real people!
I've never heard of this but thank you it sounds interesting!!!
7:57 my parents literally did this to me AT MY SISTER’S WEDDING!!! Why do parents, real or fictional, feel the need to remind one sibling that they aren’t married, AT THE WEDDING OF THEIR OTHER CHILD?!?! Like, this day is not about me, leave me alone!
Because all parents keep score.
And the one that bet on you is now losing, so they want you to kick it in gear.
@@DH-xw6jp I know you probably didn’t mean it this way, but the “kick it in gear” bit REALLY bothers me. It’s along the lines of “your clock is ticking” or some BS like that, which is way off from the actual situation, at least in my case. Again, you probably didn’t mean it like that, but that’s how it read to me.
Narcissistic parents do that.
@@licmir3663 yeah, that checks out. 😂
They are old school.
Like “No woman without a man” and “But marriage is peak of happiness” school.
Not to be a nerd on main but this movie is literally a modern retelling of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing. The main characters are Beatrice and Benedict, Bee and Ben, right? They absolutely hate each other until they have to be near each other for the wedding of their friends, whereupon they are forced together by their families who have loud conversations about how much Bee loves Ben and vise versa. Like it took me until 8:40 to realize what the plot of this movie is based off of. 😂😂😂😂😂
I've been binging your vids for a week, and while I (obviously) love the humour, I have to say the "Australia is Caelid" reference is absolute peak
3:49 Alex, the bar is in the ground. A baby could crawl over it
SERIOUSLY
This is an amazing comment
To be fair, babies get cuteness bonus. They are allowed to do shit that would normally qualify for even under the low bar, but people will forgive it because babies are awesome.
Agree with the rest though 😄
I actually said "ew" out loud when he stuck his tongue out and then laughed in shock that this movie made me react to anything
The fact that you used the theme music from my favorite RPG SHINING FORCE from the Saga Genesis is pretty amazing. I doubt anyone picked up on that lol
You amaze me that you are able to summarize a movie in 10-15 minutes 👏🏾
I was in a relationship when I was in college and she complained about how we never fought. It was definitely an odd complaint to hear.
My former best friend told me it was normal to fight when I informed her that fighting with her partner in front of me made me uncomfortable. 🙄 She freakin corned him when they fought, I always felt so bad for him. I’m sure she would say the same thing. I got tired of fighting with her just as a friend!
@@tlahmed I think we should normalize saying "it's normal to disagree & discuss", because way too many seem to take "fight" literally.
“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.
It did help put into perspective the idea that what a child, sees and grows up with in the interactions of their parents can become a normalization or expectation in their own relationships.
It could be giving the impression you aren't interested.
If you immediately cave on everything it isn't seen as very good just as always disagreeing isn't.
There isn't exactly a hard and fast rule but basically just because your fella has agreed with you or "doesn't argue" doesn't mean he's loyal, he could just not care enough to argue because he's cheating on you or is about to leave you anyway.... That sort of thing. 🤷
NOT THE JOKE ABOUT THE DAD BEING HOMOPHOBIC ABOUT THE WEDDING OF THE SISTER???? 😭
Homophobic and racist cause the sisters fiancé was black. That one got me
They need to do more of those. Funniest shit ever.
Omg the spy kids mention was all i needed😭🤣🤣
I felt my brain melting out of my ears. My brain is all over the floor now. You are a God for suffering thruough these type movies for our amusment.
Alex Meyers - We got that one guy from Spy Kids 3.
Top Gun: Maverick - Am I a joke to you?
Spy Kids 3 more iconic
@@_Amit_Sunil Iconically Awful
@_Amit_Sunil Alex probably hasn't watched any good Tom cruise movies
I know him from the Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, personally (yes, that's the title)
I only know him from Scream Queens...
4:53 Nobody gonna talk about how this guy got a whole ATM in his house
Chained up too.
He said it was a GREAT story too. Perfect to fill in his party boy background we only vagley hear about.
“When Harry Met Sally” was peak romcom.
a couple of the Ryan-Hanks pairings were very good.
but…age has definitely made my cynicism radar beep very loudly at every romcoms after that.
why does she look 24 and he looks 36
Because yes
the actors are nine years apart
Its mentioned a couple of times that the characters have an age gap, lol
yeah it's the case way too often in these types of movies, they cast older men and young women. In this case especially, the actors' age gap is very noticeable and distracting imo.
Because men are considered in their prime in their 30s, and the movie is aimed at women.
I agree with you Alex... the bar is in the floor 😂
Idk if you done reaction to Gods of Egypt yet haven't found it on your channel but you should definitely I think it would be hilarious as all you reactions. Keep up the great videos man!
I glad you pointed out the insane amount of mumbling Sydney Sweeney did in this movie! I thought my speakers were going out 😂 Also, yes, it was very awkward with a lot of those jokes and the comedic timing. 😅 I’ll have to give it a second watch to see if I actually liked it. It had its funny moments, but the dialogue and comedic timing was a bit weird in my opinion. Great review per usual, Alex!
Sydney Sweeney is such a good actress, she should be in a Spider-Man movie
Or a Spiderman adjacent movie
Funny
Apart from doing this semi-questionable quality movie, being in the Madame Spiderweb movie is certainly one of the worst things she could have chosen to do.
Even a Zack Snyder verse superhero movie would have been a better choice, at least we would have gotten insane slomo closeups of her uniquely beautiful face, or have her staring moodily in the distance with her sad eyes against an autumn backdrop of wind rushing through long grass with a tree and a cloudy sky in the back. At least those shots would have been memorable, pure art and a joy to watch.
I would rather watch paint dry for 10 hours
Hell no
the weird part about growing up as someone who watched a lot of rom coms, i am naturally clumsy. it took commentary vids to realize this is a forced trope to make the pretty girl relatable. being clumsy is not that common.
what always throws me with the "quirky clumsy" trope isn't the clumsiness, i'm really clumsy as well, but it's the fact they're always like "haha oopsie 😊" or "oh noooo 😳" all cute and delicate EVERY TIME a clumsy incident happens. i'm not a particularly angry person, i don't think, and most of the time my reactions to tripping or knocking things down is to make a joke about gravity or to just go "ah dang" and try again. but these "adorkable" clumsy characters always pop up from their fumble so goofily and not ONCE do they have that moment of dropping a mug at the end of a long day and just that primal "FFFUUUUUUUUU". maybe not never, but i definitely see that reaction more in male comedy characters than in the clumsy women characters. the women tend to just sad sigh or softly weep when they have a clumsy moment during a low point there's never that relatable frustration
Same. It is annoying at times like I literally nearly gave myself a concussion the other day and I sure as hell did not sit there making jokes. When they do the trope like this it reminds me of how they present women with ADHD the same way. I am quirky and all over the place aren't I freeing and cute like no , please stop doing this.
@@pandaninja_19you’re taking this way to seriously. I’m clumsy as hell, but I can still laugh at myself. It ain’t that serious and you don’t have to have adhd to be clumsy.
I’m clumsy but only because I’m autistic with bad coordination lmao
It compensates for how an attractive person is scary to approach. If the person is not attractive, nobody cares ..
The outdoor shower scene is giving me kenneth branner Much Ado About Nothing 😂 kinda expected an over the top dramatically hilarious monolgue.
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.
But not fighting doesn’t mean you’re suppressing feelings. I want to be happy and stress free in my relationship. I don’t need to argue about anything 😂. Healthy without confrontation.
yeah parents think you should find a partner in the same way they did, and at the same age they were, and that's the "right' and only way it can be done.
also they're annoying where they don't like the person you're interested in until you break up with them, suddenly they're like "why did you break up with them they were so nice" ...
"The bar is on the floor, gentlemen." 🤣😭
Alex, please please do Aaron Stone. For some reason everybody actually forget about it, but I pretty much was obsessed with this Disney Show. It wasn't that mind-blowing but still have a place in my heart until today
Paxton Hall-Yoshida! At least they have Darren Barnet playing an adult in whatever Netflix wants to call this.
Hard agree to your analysis as a romcom enjoyer this was so frustrating 😭 I had a whole list of notes in my head after the theater. What ruined it most for me was that dumbass misunderstanding, it made absolutely no sense for me how on earth he had so much hate for her for sneaking out after he‘d only known her a couple of hours?? 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! Just wished we‘d seen her leave the cookie with a bite taken out of it bc it‘s SO petty 😂
OMG this is just a bad version of "Much Ado About Nothing". The moment I realized this was the fucking bit with the dad and friend pretending to talk up Bea. Go watch Tennet's version of it, fucking great.
It had Catherine Tate love them man
Whoah I didn't know that Christopher Nolan's Tenet was an adaptation of Shakespeare's Much Ado about nothing. I should have guessed...
Kenneth Branagh was pretty funny too
You should definitely do the trolls movies! Especially the new one because oh boy that was a trip 😂
I saw this with a girl I was talking to on Christmas Eve and didn't make a move, and it all went downhill from there. For a month after it broke off, I swear I would hear the song Unwritten like 10x a day😂
so wait when gen z was becoming a teenager they restarted teen rom coms with to all the boys ive loved before, and now that genz is becoming an adult theyre restarting adult romcoms, (+ sydney sweeney is already well loved by genz) and all the millennials who watched easy a/friends with benefits etc are gonna watch it for nostalgia? this movie was bound to be a success
So many commenters must be young as hell!
The late 90s/early 2000s notoriously made several of these 'modern re-imaginings of Shakespearian classics' genre films. 10 Things I Hate About You, anyone?
and she’s the man!!
Yes, but _10 Things I Hate About You_ was actually good.
"the bar is on the floor gentlemen" 🤣🤣
You did make my day a little bit better ❤
I always get so excited when Alex posts with a review of a beautiful romance movie. I miss 2000 rom coms so much 😭
