The people who made this and the people who watch and support this absolute trash should be ashamed. The trash dark romance novel its based on is even worse. Imagine spending millions to minimise and romanticise sexual assault, coercive control, emotional abuse and down right stalking violence.People who call this chemistry, who cheer on this absolute moronic childish Bullshit should be ashamed. And yeah I do have a right to shame and call out idiots who support romanticised depictions of domestic violence and sexual assault. This sends the opposite of every message womens groups are trying to send to protect women. Just because you know its not real, doesn't mean it doesnt have influence to young people watching it. Its so pathetic. Morons morons morons Get an effing life MORONS. Calling it toxic is not enough. It sad pathetic disgusting and defending it is idiotic.
This violent man sexually assaulted a schoolgirl FFS. thats romance how??? ugh disgusting
Virginia Woolf used the term "middlebrow" to poke fun at pretentious pseudo intellectuals. People who are so desperate not to appear "low brow" they will often pretend to like things, or indeed deride things, in a sad effort to seem intelligent and project themselves as superior. Unfortunately Lovely Runner has fallen foul to a horde of these commenter and their repetitive ridiculous pseudo intellectual word salad reviews. Lovely Runner features a watch that helps you time travel, this is seemingly not as acceptable as the walkman featured in A Time Called You for example. Apparently one is ridiculous one is profound. The biggest strength of Lovely Runner is, that it is pure entertainment. Its a Rom Com in the truest Kdrama sense (as in it comes with a side of murder/melodrama/family crisis/betrayal/hidden identity). In this case a serial killer. The chemistry between the leads is undeniable and amazing. The audience reaction and success was an actual phenomenon. Both stars had their careers boosted by being in it. People love it because its romantic funny touching heart warming lovely and amazing. Unlike the idiots wasting their time criticising it for not being what it was never supposed to be. It is not pretentious and does not take it self seriously. Just like people who aren't pretentious dicks people LOVE IT. DESPITE Review bombing and all of that, despite neither star being an A Lister at the time it blew people away and its still 8.9. Don't be afraid to embrace and love Lovely Runner. Its always the people who try hardest to be cool have the deepest insecurities.
