I've seen this plot way too many times
Honestly, I was loving the movie until the ML confessed, but then jokingly, I remembered movies I'd seen before, where after a confession something tragic inevitably happens, one of the leads has to leave (which 90% is the ML from my own watching experience), then the one left is all like I never loved you, I hate you, whatever, they cut contact. Cue a few years pass, they reunite in the last 5 mins of movie, and Happily Ever After. I wish they didn't have to do this exact formula to bring issues in the plot, It just feels monotonous, as soon as this exact thing started happening, my mind disconnected from the movie, and I just couldn't enjoy the last 25 minutes of movie, I skipped a few frames till I reached the ending, as expected, the same thing. It's not that I don't like clichés or anything like that, often I'm the first to support them, but it feels a bit lazy for these movies to always do this (clearly, it's not all movies, but I've seen enough with this formula to recognize a pattern), with no true meaning behind it, not character development, closure of existing problems, or introspection. It's just for te closure of the movie, with nothing important in it to make it relevant to the characters. I don't know, the movie that had me excited and even gushing for the characters at the start, left a bitter taste in my mouth, which drastically impacted my overall view of the movie.Was this review helpful to you?
