6/10 fair
It’s a romcom and it’s a fair one at that, no point picking holes, it does what it says on the tin……
The cast is okay and do what is asked of them, the storyline is the normal romcom formate and it doesn’t deviate from it….
You won’t necessarily remember the movie but you will enjoy it well watching it.
Could it have been better?
Probably….
Does it matter?
Not really….
Switch of your brain and watch it and enjoy it, then move on to the next movie you want to watch….
Oh, I did enjoy the credits singalong, very enjoyable and I hope they all enjoyed filming it…..
Have you ever wondered what could happen in your relationship if both are working in the same company and not being able to tell anyone because of company policies and one of you getting promoted? This movie gives you a glimpse of one of the possible scenarios. A wild ride! It certainly isn't a perfect film, but it's interesting as hell. Great performances from the leading actors.
I can’t stop crying
Extremely unrealistic movie! I mean who would choose the real world over Barbie world
Not sure what other people were expecting... I thought it was the perfect blend of humor, action, gore and even some heart.
At 93 minutes, it was a lot of fun and didn't drag at all.
Spoiler;
In Nope, Daniel Kaluuya‘s character’s name is OJ and his name is said maybe over 100 times. Keke Palmer’s Emerald even gets to say “run OJ!” That was my main problem with the movie.
Since Jordan Peele’s OJ Simpson joke in Us. “Who is that outside ? OJ Simpson!” I think Kaluuya’s character named OJ isn’t coincidence. It was a distraction for me.
More disturbing than the reveal of what is going on is the killer monkey scenes. Where a monkey on set of a tv show snaps and kills some cast members. That I didn’t expect going in and it is disturbing and even sad.
I also haven’t pieced together yet what was the point in those scenes. I think though that there’s a hidden message about how people are never fully in control when working with animals.
The film gets compared to Spielberg meets Shyamalan. Yes it does have an eventual Jaws feel to it which is clever when you expect Close Encounters. You can throw in an occasional Quintin Tarantino style as well.
I was really into the movie but I don’t think it needed the traumatizing monkey scenes, honestly.
