So this movie isn't going to win any Oscar nominations, but it doesn't aim to. It is campy, over-the-top fun. I love Lucy Hale and she is perfect in this movie. It's a silly satire on online dating today, and it is an easy way to spend an hour and a half while you fold your laundry or clean out your email inbox. This one is destined to be a classic, but it held my interest and got a few chuckles out of me. I'm not sure why you have to use soooo many characters to post a review - I prefer brevity myself - but imd is insisting I keep typing. Just go into it with low expectations and you won't be disappointed.

You know what this movie is. Seriously, you've definitely seem something like this before. It's a cute but forgettable romantic comedy, with a nice little murder mystery side plot (because some murder is always good). And you know what? It does exactly what it sets out to do. It's not profound, or original, or particularly exhilarating. But it's entertaining, silly, and fun. I mean, if you've ever seen a Lucy Hale movie, you know exactly what you're getting into.

I'd argue that it's predominantly a romcom, but the murder mystery angle is really fun. It was definitely a creative way to spice up the genre. Again, nothing amazing here, but a good enough time.

Director Laura Murphy offers us a romantic comedy with thriller overtones that is quite acceptable, thanks to the charisma of its protagonists who fit perfectly into a fun script.

Starring Lucy Hale, Virginia Gardner and Brooke Nevin in a comedy that offers us a purely female project that is quite enjoyable because it has an entertaining story to tell and that takes great advantage of the versatility of its protagonists, especially Lucy Hale, who carries on her shoulders all the high moments of the film.

It has a couple of games with interesting secondary characters and awkward situations that are funny and that allows us to never have a point of disconnection with the story, even though at times it loses a bit of the initial force that it brings.

It's a slightly fun ride in terms of its various situations, but it will always be far from consolidating itself as one of the great comedies that came to us in 2024. It has good direction behind it and a successful cast that make the most of the high points of its script, but they also fall when the film gets tangled up in its own path of being able to identify well where it wants to take its entire premise, but it must be granted that they handle its final twist well although one could smell that it was coming.

It works for those who enjoy simple, feminist comedies with appealing cast elements. If you're looking for something more sophisticated, this film won't take you too far out of your comfort zone, but it ends up being enjoyable nonetheless.

F Marry Kill (2024) is a new comedy mystery thriller made by Lionsgate and it was very mediocre.

Positives for F Marry Kill (2024): The movies looks nice and it's shot competently. Lucy Hale and Virginia Gardner give decent performances in the movie. The movie moves at a good pace and doesn't overstay its welcome. There is some good humor in the movie. And finally, the reveal of the killer was definitely surprising.

Negatives for F Marry Kill (2024): For a Rated R movie, the movie isn't that raunchy and there is barely any gore being shown on screen. The mystery aspect of the movie was very dull and there are too many red hearings. The movie goes for multiple plot twists and it wasn't executed very well. And finally, the resolution to this movie wasn't very satisfying.

Overall, F Marry Kill (2024) is a pretty mediocre attempt at a comedy mystery thriller, but I would recommend it if you need some background noise. I.

It was decent for a casual watch. I can see why it's labelled as a comedy, it often felt unintentionally funny, even during the serious scenes. Definitely gives off a low-budget vibe with a plot that feels like a vacation read-light, messy, and not to be taken seriously.

It's not a film that demands much from you, which makes it okay for time pass. The story doesn't go too deep and some parts are a bit too convenient, but nothing unbearable. Not something I'd revisit, but fine for what it is.

The lead actress is quite pretty, and that honestly helped keep things watchable. Its a light comedy.
