Alguém Especial

It seemed like the actors had a lot of fun working on this film, especially with the witty, lively dialogue. The writing was sharp and really allowed their talent and chemistry to shine, which made it a pretty enjoyable watch. The three female mains (Gina Rodriguez, Brittany Snow, DeWanda Wise) were all on point, and Lakeith Stanfield was excellent, as always. The scene with RuPaul's cameo was worth the watch all by itself.

People leaving bad reviews have complained that the movie is not realistic, but... have they ever seen a romantic comedy or buddy comedy before? Or, like, *anything* on TV? Did they grow up without screens? I felt the attempt to portray cool young people going through a dramatic time in life was pretty par for the course for this type of film. Some reviewers even oddly seemed a little jealous, if I'm being honest.

Where the movie suffers is plot. The flashbacks and scenes involving emotion and conflict were strongly-acted--they did hit home. But in my opinion too little time was spent on them so they didn't go deep enough to have the full power that they had the potential to have. I also agree with other reviewers that a bit much time was spent on drugs, but I feel this about most youth pop culture so maybe I'm just an old fart.

Overall, this was a solid film. It has wonderful highs, wonderful lows, and lots of laughs--I just wish there was more. I'm glad I watched it and would recommend it to fans of shows like Broad City, Shrill, and High Fidelity (the show starring Zoe Kravitz, although the original film is amazing too).

I loved the premise of this movie. Having such strong women support each other through some of the lows in life is truly what friendships especially women's friendships are about. I love Gina she's the reason I watched this film and Brittney Snow and when I saw Lakeith omgggggg done! Such an awesome cast. Yes it's a bit predictable, yes it's not full of a lot of surprises but aren't all romcoms somehow very similar. All of that is easily pushed aside and you can enjoy the story of this film. Plus the chemistry of the lead actors is so genuine you can tell they are friends outside the film. Last but not least the DIVERSITY!!! YESSS !!!!

I loved it and encourage you to watch it.

It's one of those flat-lined movies it doesn't have ups and downs moments it just ends with the same pace that it started with, if you go in expecting some kind of a powerful message I would suggest you tone down your expectations. it's not bad it's just not great, i enjoyed the diversity and the sense of friendship that it had but that's about it.

It's light, simple, and different. If you have been through a break up or even better (or worse? 😆) now are going through one, watch this. You'll find this movie very relatable.

The premise was intriguing, the girls performances were great. But imo, their years of friendship was not deeply explored. This is unfortunate, since the movie is emphasizing on their friendship.

I loved this movie. I loved the characters. The visuals and the story. It's nice to see a love story and a break-up story that you can actually identify with. It was so real and so raw it actually made me cry and hurt my heart, but I laughed a lot as well. It's very accurate to what relationships are now and the ending was amazing. I loved it!
