My Fake Boyfriend

The plot in general is lousy, there is no common sense, it is all so unreal and dramatic in a simply absurd sense, the only good thing are the actors who participated, many have had an excellent career, and others who are not so well known did an excellent job but the film itself, and the organization everything was just horrible.

Swooned throughout!!! Amazing chemistry between the leads, super funny and cute story. Also, Dylan Sprouse is HILARIOUS in this. I already want to watch it again. Hope there is a sequel!

Deception is rewarded and everything else in this film is vaguely incoherent and incomprehensible. At times the characters come across as if the screenwriter had never met a human.

Cast diversity is nice for pride month, just wish the film was better.

I got intrigued when I read the synopsis. Creating a fake boyfriend to keep away a toxic one? That's interesting and potentially funny. And while it was pretty funny to see the reality of social media users portrayed in this film (dumb and quick to judge something or someone), but I still can stop myself from thinking that the story isn't acceptable or logical. In real life, you couldn't actually get away with creating an imaginary person, especially when it involves money. I'm not an expert in law, but I'm pretty sure it can be called fraud and it's illegal. So why did I give it a 6? Because it's not an amateur work and the comedy is still pretty good, not to mention that it's decently acted and has a good ending. I'm a sucker for good endings. So in my opinion, this movie is still good enough to watch.

I stumbled on this by accident and would have been tempted to skip with all the negative reviews. But I know Lonsdale from his small roles in Love Simon and Love Victor where he was good so gave it a shot. I think the negative reviews are nothing to do with honest reviews of a comedy film.

This was a genuinely silly and funny film. The characters were all so OTT and ridiculous. That was the point! It's not bad acting, it's brilliant acting.

I initially thought we might be heading for a bad Weird Science rip off when Sprouse announced he was going to create a boyfriend but the social media twist was clever and had some serious undertones if you want to look for any depth.

The biggest point that the haters seem to have missed is that this film was funny. I was laughing all the way through and when so many comedies fail on that simple point I give it the credit it is due.

I look forward to seeing Lonsdale front and centre in more movies. Keep it up young man and ignore the negativity. It's a thumbs up from me!
