After all, it's an A24 movie. I wonder if they will ever make a Rom-Com?
Movie You're Watching Tonight
At least that’s now seen.
Good colours and I am a huge fan of Jake, but the sudden overwhelming Americanness of it ruins the magic. Remakes are an unnecessary evil.
The dialogue is pathetic. “I’m not going to keep doing this with you.” Repeated three times. Somebody, kill me. There is, however, a very idiosyncratic way in which Gyllenhaal says “alright” ever since Prisoners that I find endearing.
What they do is blow every single plot element of the original way out of proportion, everything spelt out and hence absolutely ridiculous. The dread factor missing.

Trying to justify not cancelling my Netflix.
I just cancelled my hulu and ive had netflix before.
I find more stuff on free sites than i do on those, only an occasional movie and they are really tough to dig through. Probably has something to do with me liking older movies though.

No, I agree. And I have used free ones too. The Netflix quality is better though. I find that the best selection is on Amazon Prime. In fact I find the Prime algorithm surprisingly good. When it says I’ll like something, I always do, and it’s often the most obscure low-budget stuff I’d have never unearthed otherwise.
oh i didnt know that ill look at my prime more i rarely watch movies on there. I need to get a premium channel for movies do you have any of those? Hbo tcm ...

Convinced already this is ****, but…
The bottle scene is rather impressive.
But overall absolute rubbish, of course.
I’m actively irritated that people choose to make stuff like that. It’s worse than the worst kind of romantic comedy pretends to be tongue in cheek.

PYW - such a dumb movie.
It’s only so-so. Nothing major IIRC.

Agreed on your other verdict too.

It's a one-joke movie, but the joke is a good one. And at less than 90 minutes, it doesn't wear out its welcome.
Yeah, I see what you mean. How bizarre.
