Meet Cute

Please ignore the bad ratings. This movie is falsly advertised and promoted as a romcom. But in fact it's a heartfelt dramedy about struggling with love because of emotional trauma. And How to Deal with it. So it's not what you would expect regarding the trailer.

Liked the overall atmosphere and cinematography.

It shines with bittersweetness, small moments and touching philosophical aspects. Story and characters are relatable for those, who suffered the same in their lives. It may not be as enjoyable if you are not aware of what the characters are going through. However, it's told in a sweet way. Depends on you.

Worth a watch. 🖤

When that one really good dream I had in my life is made as a movie. Special and unique version of the conversation made by two really good actors in leading roles. My appreciation goes to all cast and production as well. Nothing was mediocre or banal to me about this loving chance of someone to keep the other person happy close to own life. Just one day as all other days in everybody's hard as hell life to be worth of trying when you know who is your reason to stay. The real connection we have is always someone else, the other human being and nothing else ever. Why is this so hard to believe?

This movie comes off as something the studio had in mind to package and sell as a romantic comedy, when in actuality it tackles much deeper issues and themes. By the end of the viewing what I had expected to be an affair full of predictable ups and downs with the familiar "Will they, won't they?" tropes turned out to be a journey of nihilistic existentialism that bordered on becoming a really good philosophical film. Had the filmmakers and studios decided to lean more heavily into the artistic side of this movie it could have very well been another Mr. Nobody, which similarly explored deep philosophical questions while bringing us on a journey of two star crossed lovers who were destined to be together, but had to go through hell and back to get there.

A surprising turn of events that turned something that promised a generic experience into something with substance!

This is a really good film.

But whoever was in charge for marketing this film needs to lose their job. It is sold in every way as a RomCom. The name of the film, the images just in publicity, even the synopsis reads as a RomCom.

What this movie really is is a deep look at mental health. About struggles we may have in life and the things we think we need to make our problems go away. It's a really challenging piece about society and the world we live in. It's many things. But it is not a Romantic Comedy.

There are outstanding performances from the two leads (who carry about 95% of the whole film).

It really jumps around, there are lots of changes of direction, just when you think you know where it's going, a new layer is revealed.

But because of the awful job done by the marketing team, the audience that will truly appreciate the film will probably pass it by.

People expecting a RomCom will be frustrated, turn off after 15 minutes and leave a bad rating and review.

I was sceptical about the pitch. I was expecting a cheap sci-fi time loop story with a female main character to add some kind of easy romantic lines, just goodish enough to have something playing on while doing something else but in fact no, it was quite interesting and I enjoyed it entirely.

The trailer is actually very deceiving because :

• If you want sci fi, you will be disappointed
• If you want a comedy, you won't laugh a lot
• If you want romance, well it is served with a sadness topping

Instead you will get a quite clever psychological story about a girl trying to run from her life through her obsession about a man. It is moving, and generic enough for most of us to identify to. The genre mixing is clever, the sci fy bit is a nice allegory, the comedy side gives some rythme and the drama brings some depth. Congratulations to Noga Pnueli for the story and to Kaley Cuoco, her part is basically the whole movie and she did it well.

My disappointment comes from the feeling of tight schedules and fast editing. There are some very good ideas and a good bas for more twists. A bit more time, work and probably money could have made this movie amazing. Anyway, it was a great surprise and that is rare enough to be saluted.
