"Things Like This" is so full of heart...as well as laughs! Set in New York where the setting already makes you want to fall in love.
This movie and cast made my heart so happy and I loved every minute. In times like these we need a nice escape and a reason to spread love and laughter.
Thank you for bringing not only LGBTQ+ representation, but love for the plus sized cuties. Go see this movie!
This movie is the simple reminder that everyone deserves love, no matter your past or insecurities. I loved the main characters as well as the side characters (shout out to the purrrfect queen, Jackie Cruz!)

There's a rule in screenwriting that if you're going to have a character who's a bit extra/annoying/difficult, they need to do something unquestionably good early into the script, like saving a cat. That never happens for either of the two romantic leads. One is annoying, the other is slightly less annoying... and while I want more plus-size representation in queer cinema, certainly we can do better than this. Apart from making each other laugh, I never understood why either of them found the other attractive. I only realized that one of the actors who plays the romantic lead also wrote and starred in it when we got to the end. So... was this supposed to be some sort of fantasy about getting the hottie? But the thing is, the supposed "hottie" wasn't that attractive because he's such a jerk to the people around him. We can do better than this...

Love is for everybody, and the film industry doesn't always show that - it has seemed like the only people who can find love are those who are skinny and straight and classically beautiful. No matter who you are, seeing someone who does not fit the traditional profile in a love story is transformative. Representation allows for everyone to feel like they can fit in any role - if they can be the romantic leads, I can be anything I want to be too.
The script was very funny, and the characters were heartwarming - except the Tony-nominated Taylor Trensch, who was hilariously awful (and uneducated about narwhals!) and Eric Roberts, whose disdain for his own child sent ripples through the audience when I saw it in theaters. Go see this movie - you deserve it.

I really loved this. I just got out of the theater and the whole audience was as enthralled as I was. I was smiling and laughing and awwing my way through it. The chemistry between the Zachs was palpable. As a queer person myself who has dated someone with the same name, I thought that was funny but they didn't overplay the joke. It was so cute. They were cute, I almost wish it was longer or a Netflix mini series.
Ava was iconic. That actress is going places for sure. I just really really enjoyed it and I loved seeing queer representation throughout.
I hadn't seen the main actors before but I loved them and am a fan now. 10/10 recommend. Support queer art ✨

The movie itself was very sweet and funny was little a bit annoyed by the main character but i liked how zach out there trying to find love but didnt give up and it was so enjoyable and emotional for two of them to be a couple i rate this movie a 10/10 and i recommend this to anyone who is a couple or a single person to watch this film its just literally a great movie to see for stuff like valentines day or a date with someone maybe just to hang out with friends i believe Joey and Max Were great actors in the movie because between a plus size and smaller guy its cute seeing the romance etc etc.
