Prepare for a rollercoaster of cringe and irritation! The two main leads in this film seemed more like pretty faces on a billboard than actors with real chemistry. The acting, to put it kindly, was subpar to say the least, which is ironic given the big names who came to play in this. Don't even get me started with the cringetopia that was the first meet-up between the main leads.
And let's not forget about Gina Torres, who sadly became a caricature of herself in this film. Known for her captivating performances in the past, it was disheartening to see her reduced to a one-dimensional, over-the-top cringe portrayal.
And oh, the patchy editing! Is it an avant-garde attempt at abstract art, or did someone accidentally spill coffee on the cutting room floor? I must admit, it was quite the artistic statement-except the statement was "please stop torturing me with this jumbled mess." The sporadic cuts and disjointed scenes were positively headache-inducing, almost like a migraine set to music. Irritation level: off the charts!
Here's the thing: I didn't go into this film expecting a cinematic masterpiece or an Oscar-worthy performance. I simply wanted a guilty pleasure romcom-a light-hearted addition to my list of shamelessly enjoyable flicks. But alas, I ended up drowning in a sea of regret for sacrificing a precious 90 minutes of my life. If only I could request a refund for lost time!
Now, let's talk about that third act. What on earth was that? Seriously, it was a blob of unnecessary events which left me questioning if someone was trying to live out their wildest fantasies through the characters.
In conclusion, this film was a cringeworthy disaster that left me irritated to the core. The lack of chemistry, subpar acting, and puzzling editing choices made it a regrettable experience. If you're looking for an award-winning performance, you won't find it here. But if you're in the mood for an unintentional comedy or a masterclass in what not to do in filmmaking, then by all means, grab your popcorn and prepare for a wild ride.
Rating: One star (for every pretty face, but that's about it!)
