blugirlami21 September 5, 2022 Share September 5, 2022 Interesting conversation about Sweet Home Alabama. I never thought that Melanie was so happy in New York or with Andrew in particular. I think she was living a lie there for a really long time after she miscarried and kind of ran away there. I also got the sense that everything Andrew knew about Melanie was a fabrication. I really liked that she had to confront the family and friends she left behind. Her mom in particular kind of broke my heart. Andrew was great, I think he did his absolute best with how hard he was blindsided but I didn't think it was realistic that he still wanted to marry her. He didn't even know who she was. She didn't know who she was. Was Jake perfect? Absolutely not. But I thought part of her returning was her having to also drop her misconceptions about Jake as well. The narrative she created in her head didn't allow him to grow beyond the backwater country boy she had to marry when she fell pregnant. Half the stuff he did and said was really him leaning into caricature of a person that she still thought he was. For me the point of the movie was her learning that she could love and appreciate her country roots and not be embarrassed and still be successful and authentic. I don't think she was ever meant to be with the disposable fiance though lol. Is there a movie where that happens? Mileage may vary obviously. This made me want to watch Sweet Home Alabama so thanks for that lol. Now I did watch Look Both Ways on Netflix and boy did that movie infuriate me. So the premise is basically Sliding Doors twenty something edition. Girl either finds out she is pregnant or not the night before heading off into adulthood. The baby daddy is a close friend. One scenario she is pregnant and moves back home to have the baby and the other she's not pregnant and heads of to Cali to live her dream of becoming an animator. The not pregnant storyline is pretty good, she gets a great job, meets a handsome guy, she's successful, etc, etc. However the pregnancy storyline 🙄 She's miserable ofc. She lies around like a lump every day, not working, not drawing or creating, she doesn't go out with friends. She acts like being pregnant means that your life is suddenly over. Ofc we have the obligatory unrequited love from the baby daddy which she rejects because reasons. I wanted to throw a brick at her. And then the ending is both timelines just continuing? It didn't make any sense. Don't watch it lol. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11443-romantic-comedies/page/24/#findComment-7634929

aradia22 November 4, 2022 Author Share November 4, 2022 I finally watched I'm Your Man on Hulu. It's a German language movie so you'll need to be okay with subtitles. It's definitely on the weirder, quieter end of rom-coms. More like The Lobster or Ruby Sparks or Destination Wedding. I think it's more charming and less intense than any of those movies but if I said it was quirky like Amelie, it'd give you the wrong impression and I think you need to go into this movie with your calibrations pitched appropriately. It's very European. I found it consistently funny but not in a laugh out loud kind of way. The pacing is a little slow at times but it's worth sticking with it. The actors are charming and Dan Stevens is partially great in this role. It asks questions about the nature of love and humanity and loneliness and what we should expect in relationships but it never felt too heavy or philosophical to me. What I appreciated most is it very much felt like a movie that was written and directed by a woman and that prioritized the female character's POV.

I thought it was more of a romantic drama than a comedy.I have been LUSTING after Justin Hartley since 2001, and when they made his love interest a beautiful black woman who wore her curls in a pineapple at night, my evening was made and I spent the movie pretending this was me. 🤣 The first time she mentioned her fiancé I told my Mom "she doesnt want to marry that man!!", but yeah, she was a cheater. I wouldve preferred if they hadnt slept together before hand. Also I didnt care for his interaction with his Dad, there is no excuse for leaving your 5yrs old child under the care of someone who absolutely cannot take care of him properly, because you didnt want to "hurt her". From the sounds of things the only reason he ended up okay was because the neighbor next door stepped in as a caregiver. His mother was too sick to be a full time caregiver, and his father should've been there to take care of him, you know as that was his job, not the neighbors job. 3 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11443-romantic-comedies/page/24/#findComment-7783610

Except when they had sex. She goes into the hotel with curly hair. By the time they're having dinner, her hair is straightened for the sexy times she decides she's having (so the cheating was a very decided thing and the movie somehow thinks natural curls aren't sexy--booo!)

I agree. That was not it. He expected the son to step up and take care of the mother. But then, the son left her and his dog in the car, out in the cold so I'm not sure he's any better. I get it for maybe the first heavy conversation but he left them there for hourrrrs while they decorated. Decorated! Ultimately, I liked Noel (the character) a lot. They did have chemistry. But there was too much stupid for me to fully embrace the movie. Plus, I didn't like that she didn't show up until 20 minutes into the movie.

I watched because of the dynamic duo but it had a nice storyline and was hilarious. The beer pong scene made me cry because I was laughing so hard. I loved it too. The bad reviews really make me roll my eyes. I hate how every movie seems to have a vomit scene, and this movie soooooooo could have went there with all of the drunkenness. I was so grateful that they didn't. 4 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/11443-romantic-comedies/page/24/#findComment-7785479
Irlandesa December 10, 2022 Share December 10, 2022 (edited) I forgot that was coming to Peacock. I'll have to watch it this weekend. I watched Something From Tiffany's with Zoey Deutsch and Kendrick Lamar Sampson. It's set during the holidays but the holidays are mostly backdrop. Girl is a baker. Guy is a writer. They both have significant others. So typical setup with a bit of a twist in that the guys end up swapping gifts which keeps bringing Zoey and Kendrick's characters in each other's orbit. And even though the ending wasn't as strong as it could have been, my main takeaway is that Zoey is really really good at this romantic comedy thing. The charm of the leads really elevates a pretty basic story.
