The questions were way (no WAY) too basic. Whitney Cummings wasn't funny, seemed like she was just there to get paid and was bored. Why not get a host that was actually a fan of the show? We all got a bit Bamaboozled by watching this it could have been better but just felt slapped together even the games were lame. I love Friends and I think anyone that is a fan of the show would have expected more with the questions. The clips as much as I love show felt like filler instead of perhaps sparking nostalgia which may have been the actual intention. With 10 seasons they had more than enough material to work with and it felt squandered.
There is no spark, no chemistry. It's a movie driven in neutral and at times in cruise control. Baldoni is a poorly cast Ryle a square peg in a round hole a total try hard. The lily is off the bloom for me with this movie. I never rooted for Lily and Ryle to get together (no pun intended). I wanted this important story to be told and instead I found I just wanted the movie to be over. I believe movies can be as good as the book and the script here isn't the problem. As much as I usually like Blake Lively she's a little bland here something was off. The actress cast to play young Lily was perfect her look, her tone she even sounds like Blake at times.
During the course of this documentary, it is obvious that the subject and interacting with young, pretty sorority and sorority hopefuls, has triggered many deep, rooted insecurities the Director has about their alopecia, and the trauma of growing up with alopecia. While their feelings are valid of their experience of dealing with alopecia as an adolescent and getting to a place of acceptance is admirable it is a totally different subject than the "Bama Rush" this is like a documentary with an a documentary. My understanding is that as a documentarian, you do not get involved with the subject or make it personal you were supposed to be detached. They take it so far as to ask the rush coordinators if they would have gotten in themselves because of being bald or because of the shoes they were wearing, which were some old beat up Vans. They needed to take a step back and reevaluate the subject they really wanted to document.
