Baiser, marier, tuer

I never had a single laugh, every comedic attempt fell flat. It might be because of younger target audience but even when I was younger the comedy would not have worked. Every character annoyed to the point of hoping they would shut up. If only studios put more effort into script development before filming.

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.

I'm a big Lucy Hale fan... I think she's gorgeous and can act. That's why I gave this movie a shot. But honestly? It just fell short.

First off, I couldn't feel any real chemistry between the cast, it was awkward. You know those movies where you can almost see the sparks fly? Well, this wasn't one of them. The jokes didn't help either; they felt super forced and predictable, like someone wrote "something funny goes here" in the script.

I read other reviews and other people even said Lucy's humor "fell completely flat" and that she just doesn't click with her co-star here

Then there's the acting...it's kinda weird. People in this film say and do things like they're reading cue cards, not having real conversations. Normal folks don't talk or act like that. I wanted to give it a fair shot, I really did, but by the end I wished I'd bounced earlier.

Bottom line: Lucy Hale is great as always, but this movie? Not worth the time. No chemistry, cringe-y lines, and weird reactions... I regret sticking it out.

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.
