Watched the movie. It was somewhat entertaining for the genre, but the actors were not successful in making anyone care whether or not they stayed together. In the end, there was no emotional investment in the outcome, which is really not the reaction you want from the audience. The whole goal of these kinds of movies is for the viewer to walk away feeling happy things worked out and reinforcing the human perseverance of love, or feeling disappointed that they just couldn't make it work, and feeling sad for the characters. The casting might have worked out better if they would quit trying to check every box when they make these movies. The main female is white with a divorced mother (although, divorce does play into the plot), the main male has a white mother and African American father (both doctors), the best friend is African American and gay, and the other best friend is Asian. Are you sensing a goal here? Diversity is awesome, but stop trying so hard to paint a perfectly balanced picture. |
God forbid they would try to portrait a normal society, right? |
Well, Statistically speaking 'high school love' makes for the longest lasting marriages Hopefully, that has answered this movies question |
Sounds like 'Blue Valentine' - The relationship of a contemporary married couple, charting their evolution over a span of years by cross-cutting between time periods. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1120985 |
True, but this is more sweet, sugary, sentimental and schmalzy. Blue Valentine is more heated, violent and confrontational |
