F*** Marry Kill

Okay, the premise sounds really bleh on paper though it's Lucy Hale, Virginia Gardner, and the rest of the cast making it all work to some extent. It's kinda like Scream with online dating at its forefront, but the horror/gore element is dumbed down so much, especially for an R-rated movie. For me, the film works when it's a nice little raunchy comedy with a central mystery; however, it falls flat as a horror film. Even when the writing throws in way too many red herrings, the final reveal somehow was refreshingly twisted. I think I enjoyed it more than expected, owing to its characters all being millennials for a change, as opposed to Gen Zs, which is generally the case (I'm looking at you Time Cut). It handles the "being single in your 30s" bit rather enjoyably, with reasonably funny banter.

F***, Marry, Kill is watchable but don't expect to be mesmerized by it. I liked the fast pace of it so you never get the feeling of getting bored but sometimes the story felt like an episode of one of those television comedy series that have been airing like forever. The acting was decent, the mystery was okay until the second part of the movie where it became obvious who the killer was, well at least to me so I wasn't surprised by the revealing of the culprit. As for the comedy it was just a bit bland, nothing hilarious. All in all it's worth a watch but I won't remember anything about it in a couple days.

While I was not familiar with the 2024 movie "F*** Marry Kill" from director Laura Murphy, I opted to watch it as I had the opportunity to do so here in 2025. Truth be told, I didn't know hat I was in for, and thus had no expectations to the movie. So I suppose that director Laura Murphy had every opportunity to entertain and impress me.

Writers Ivan Diaz, Dan Scheinkman and Meghan Brown put together a fair enough script and storyline, though the narrative was a bit mundanely paced. I was sort of missing more thrills and excitement in the movie. But the writers concocted a narrative that paces along in a monotonous pace, and there wasn't really a lot of thrills to be experiences throughout the course of the 97 minutes that the movie ran for.

I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, aside from actor Jedidiah Goodacre. And I do enjoy watching unfamiliar talents on the screen when I sit down to watch a movie. The acting performances in the movie were good.

A bit disappointing, but overall a watchable enough movie for what it was. It was, though, a somewhat forgettable and bland thriller.

My rating of director Laura Murphy's 2024 movie "F*** Marry Kill" lands on a five out of ten stars.

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.

F, Marry, Kill is a rom-com murder mystery that's not to be taken too seriously.

The dating apps, dates and updating friends when meeting random is relateable and happens in the real world.

The reasoning for their actions and motivations make sense and I found the humour and conversations, felt like watching a bunch of friends and I laughed out loud several times.

Lucy Hale is fabulous on screen and I always enjoy her comedic banter.

If you can watch a casual film about a bunch of friends on shenanigans and be open to a 30-year-old woman changing her life, this is a decent watch.

F, Marry, Kill is Fun.
