Zusammenfassung
Reviewers say 'Picture This' is a mixed romantic comedy with praise for Simone Ashley's performance and humor, but criticism for the lead characters' lack of chemistry. The film relies on clichés and has a predictable plot, with an underwhelming romantic element. Some appreciate South Asian culture representation, while others find it stereotypical. Pacing, character development, and comedy execution are contentious. Overall, it's an enjoyable yet flawed film with unrealized potential.

I do not mind a good adaptation, but atleast work on it! How do you manage to get the comedy AND the chemistry wrong? This movie is a prime time example of that. Indian representation doesn't make everything good, Bollywood has much better romcoms if you want to see the culture. Peak overacting, loud expressions, the only saving grace is its colourful aesthetic! Wasn't expecting much from the actor, but even Simone fell flat in this, the dialogues were okay but their execution was bleh, the closing dance was cool but of course you have to have one because it's stereotypical, plus you already know the premise from five blind dates so this movie is giving nothing.
My wife and I were looking for some interesting entertainment and settled on this movie, made by Amazon and streaming on Prime. The past few years we have watched lots of, I am reluctant to admit, very marginal "made for streaming" movies and were skeptical, but this is a really fine and entertaining movie.
I had never seen Simone Ashley before, she plays the main character Pia. I just couldn't take my eyes off her, she is gorgeous, but best of all she is a really good actress and her performance here is very authentic.
The basic story is this - she is single and soon turning 30, her younger sister is getting married soon, the sister and her mother are strongly encouraging Pia to find a suitable husband. But she has a career as a photographer and co-owns a studio with her gay friend. But business isn't great and they may go under.
The story has many complications but most things are resolved in good, meaningful ways. We found it to be a worthwhile, entertaining movie.

Really watched this movie because of the videos I watched online and it was extremely meh -.- both the leads had no chemistry and even more extremely less screen time with each other. Even the Indian representation could not make me finish the movie. I was expecting so much more! Simone and Hero were okay, but it'll take more charm to successfully keep the people hooked. Atleast one of the main characters should have more charisma to pull it off! There was potential comedy but the timing was off so it didn't hit! Hollywood needs to bring back 2000's romcom era because these don't hit the same way :(
Some parts were very funny, others the comedy felt forced and was too much. Jay was the best comedic character and the actor is very talented.
Charlie and Pia really lacked chemistry (does nobody screen test anymore?) which alongside the minimal amount of screentime really didn't make the romance element exciting.
I did love the character of Pia and some of her family moments but it was a bit try hard.
Best part of the film was Jay & Pia's friendship! So if you're looking for a classic romance which makes you feel warm inside, this isn't the one due to the lack of romantic scenes & chemistry alike!

It was okay... There were some funny parts, some cute parts. But if you're looking for a fantastic (even, good) rom-com, this movie isn't it.
I watched this movie for Simone Ashley and Hero, because they're both so beautiful and amazing actors. What could go wrong, right?
Well... The main couple (pia and charlie) had approximately 4 scenes together... and there was no chemistry in any of them!
There were a lot of cliche tropes, a lot of stereotyping, a lot of random cussing, and a whole lot of cringe.
The movie wasn't bad, per se, but probably (definitely) not a movie you would want to see again.
