Friendzone

It's a new French Netflix movie; the plot is passable and the actors are decent; Mickaël Lumière deserves much more recognition.

Saw this movie in a sunday afternoon. It was so funny that it made my day better :). Loved it!

Three girls help their good guy friend to win his love. The movie is predictable but it's good for a weekend watch. Overall, 'Friendzone' is a frothy, feel-good, romance that does not need much thinking.

The theme of getting out of the friendzone sounds great on the surface, and it could have been a really funny RomCom if done right, but his group of girl friends that the ML hangs around with comes up with a ridiculous method to get out of the friendzone with a girl that he really likes. He meets the girl he fell in love with at first sight on the beach at a bachelorette party of his girl friends he hangs around with; the girls all go in after skinny dipping and after they leave he skinny dips on by himself. The pool boy comes along to close up and takes his clothes leaving him stark naked in the ocean. Low and behold, a woman appears dressed in a bath suit to swim but she steps on a venomous fish and needs rescuing. He rescues her naked, takes her to her room; they end up friends but he actually fell in love with her as they had so much in common. So this is how it begins which was cute, but when his friends start concocting ways to get him out of the friendzone is when the script gets ridiculous, overthetop, unlike him, not good. Short movie.

Great actors, music is amazing, funny and very entertaining.
