I 13 00:01:50.319 --> 00:01:56.359 am here with Jonqueline Hill. Fan favorite Jacqueline Hill. I've 14 00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:58.599 heard at least one fan that says that you're their favorite. 15 00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:02.120 Oh my gosh, person said in it, so it technically counts. 16 00:02:02.239 --> 00:02:04.719 And there was somebody in the Patreon too, So oh, 17 00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:06.879 they're like really really, really really leveraged on this. 18 00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:08.919 Oh my gosh, I'm sensing a pattern. 19 00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:15.319 That's the pattern me. Oh okay, yeah, that's a pattern, like, oh, okay, 20 00:02:15.639 --> 00:02:19.479 that makes sense, Okay, one night only. This is a 21 00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:24.000 romantic comedy set in New York City in a dystopian 22 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:26.919 future or present in which. 23 00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:30.000 It could go either way. Like it and we'll get 24 00:02:30.039 --> 00:02:33.120 to it. I do think it has something to say. 25 00:02:33.599 --> 00:02:40.000 In a dystopian alternate universe in which sex before marriage 26 00:02:40.120 --> 00:02:44.479 is outlawed except for one night exemption from seven pm 27 00:02:44.560 --> 00:02:48.000 to seven am. It is the purge, but it is sex, 28 00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:51.960 and that is the premise. These two young people are 29 00:02:52.039 --> 00:02:56.479 out trying to also get some of that sex for themselves, 30 00:02:56.639 --> 00:03:00.719 and they end up on a night long venture of 31 00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.879 crossing paths over and over again, wondering why they keep 32 00:03:04.960 --> 00:03:13.599 ending up unlucky in love? Jonqueline Hill, what did you 33 00:03:15.479 --> 00:03:24.039 think of this? Your copy of the bank? Jocquolin Hill, 34 00:03:24.039 --> 00:03:25.120 what did you think of this movie? 35 00:03:25.599 --> 00:03:29.560 I really enjoyed this. This was like, this is kind 36 00:03:29.599 --> 00:03:31.560 of the rom com I think I've been itching for 37 00:03:31.560 --> 00:03:35.159 for a while. It is the twenty twenti's answer to 38 00:03:35.199 --> 00:03:38.520 the rom com. I feel like it falls in line 39 00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:43.520 with your say, Your New Year's Day, your Valentine's Day, 40 00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:47.080 those sort of ensemble movies. Even though this is not 41 00:03:47.159 --> 00:03:51.479 an ensemble. There are two stars. There are lots of cameos. 42 00:03:51.520 --> 00:03:52.400 There's lots of cameos. 43 00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:54.960 There's lots of Who's that. There's a lot of product. 44 00:03:54.560 --> 00:03:56.439 Placement, a lot of product placement. 45 00:03:56.599 --> 00:04:00.319 I'm like, oh, you want me to buy things? There 46 00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.360 are things you would like me to purchase. Y'all paid 47 00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:04.719 for this movie with. 48 00:04:07.080 --> 00:04:08.319 A y jelly and directs. 49 00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.759 Yes, they said we're a pair and we are going 50 00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:14.879 to get it on this. But at the same time, 51 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.360 it was really fun. It was really enjoyable. I was 52 00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:21.879 skeptical of the premise at first going in, but it 53 00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:24.800 worked like they did it in a way that worked 54 00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:27.120 that didn't. I mean, all round, corn coms are a 55 00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:29.439 little corny, a little cheesy, but I think love is 56 00:04:29.480 --> 00:04:34.360 inherently corny and cheesy, and so it really it really 57 00:04:34.399 --> 00:04:36.279 worked for me. I enjoyed this. This was I had 58 00:04:36.319 --> 00:04:38.120 a fun time. Would you call it a romp? 59 00:04:38.319 --> 00:04:41.319 I don't know if I would call it a romp, 60 00:04:41.800 --> 00:04:44.920 But I really loved this movie. I had a really 61 00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:47.519 good time. Now I'm questioning on what my definition of 62 00:04:47.560 --> 00:04:50.240 a romp is, but I had a good time from 63 00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:52.399 the beginning to end. I like the music, I like 64 00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:55.319 the setting in New York. Granted, I am a sucker 65 00:04:55.319 --> 00:04:57.560 for movies set in New York, and now that I've 66 00:04:57.600 --> 00:04:59.879 spent a lot more time in New York, I think 67 00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:04.160 this is a one of the better depictions of being 68 00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.199 in New York. One of the better depictions. I'm not 69 00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:09.160 saying the best. I know this. New Yorkers are gonna 70 00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:10.639 watch this, like, what are you talking about? You can't 71 00:05:10.639 --> 00:05:13.360 get across town, and like, yes, I know all that's true, 72 00:05:13.480 --> 00:05:16.319 but just showing the little bits of it were very 73 00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:20.199 It was very fun. The setting and place. I thought. 74 00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:25.120 Callum Turner and Monica Barbaro, who is my new celebrity crush, 75 00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:28.959 I just I loved her so much. He's very charming. 76 00:05:29.160 --> 00:05:31.079 I think she's charming enough for the both of them. 77 00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:34.360 But I also think that Callum Turner played the role 78 00:05:34.399 --> 00:05:36.639 that he was playing very very well. I thought that, 79 00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:39.399 I don't know, they worked well together, Callum Turner more 80 00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:44.160 on the side of Klum Turner was doing more. I'm 81 00:05:44.199 --> 00:05:47.000 a focused man, I have goals, i have ambitions. I'm 82 00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:48.879 going in a certain direction. This is I want my 83 00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:52.360 life to be. And Monica Barbaro is more disillusioned with 84 00:05:52.399 --> 00:05:55.519 her life. She wants more. She's a dreamer, she's a creative, 85 00:05:55.680 --> 00:05:57.839 but she wants to fall in love. She wants romance. 86 00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:00.639 And both of them are arriving at the conclusion that 87 00:06:01.519 --> 00:06:04.000 they want to have sex on this night, but for 88 00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:06.639 both of them, they didn't want it to be meaningless. 89 00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:10.920 Until meaningless sex is kind of forced upon them in 90 00:06:10.439 --> 00:06:13.120 a not in a non consensual way, but more in 91 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:16.160 a circumstantial way, which I don't know. I thought it 92 00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:17.879 worked in terms of moving the plot along. 93 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:21.439 Yeah, I think one I understand why I do a 94 00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:24.519 lipa Mary Kalum Turner. I'm like, I see how this happened. 95 00:06:25.879 --> 00:06:28.000 It was a little bit. I'm like, these people can't 96 00:06:28.000 --> 00:06:32.040 get laid. Are we sure? Are we do? Sound it's 97 00:06:32.079 --> 00:06:34.560 looking like a skill issue because this should not be 98 00:06:34.600 --> 00:06:37.920 a problem. I found myself thinking, Okay, what is the 99 00:06:37.959 --> 00:06:44.240 politics of this movie? And it very much has something 100 00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:51.000 to say about our current political climate that we're in. 101 00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:54.759 It has a lot to say. It's kind of winking 102 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.360 at the falling birth rate a little. Yes, it's really 103 00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:00.680 like and just like, and we're going to ge policies 104 00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:02.360 to do that. Now, this is a policy that I 105 00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:05.639 think would have the opposite effect but it gets at 106 00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:08.839 that at the same time as it's like, hey, let 107 00:07:08.920 --> 00:07:11.040 people do they want, we do what they want prosex. 108 00:07:11.279 --> 00:07:14.160 It's very much like but it can be meaningful like 109 00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:17.720 it's also a critique of hookup culture, and normally critiques 110 00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:19.519 of hookup culture make me roll my eyes because I 111 00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:21.040 feel like you should be able to do what you want, 112 00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:24.160 but it kind of like, hey, what if you don't 113 00:07:24.399 --> 00:07:28.879 want to do this. Something that I thought was interesting 114 00:07:29.000 --> 00:07:33.199 and appreciated is how little the internet. 115 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:36.519 Showed up that. Okay, now that you say that, I'm realizing, yeah, 116 00:07:36.680 --> 00:07:39.360 I mean it shows up. There's an app form at 117 00:07:39.360 --> 00:07:42.120 one point, and then I can't think of another time 118 00:07:42.199 --> 00:07:43.199 that it was really in there. 119 00:07:43.279 --> 00:07:45.800 Yeah, they're all talking to each other in person. And 120 00:07:45.839 --> 00:07:48.040 I was sitting there and I was thinking, if this 121 00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:50.959 was the universe we lived in, I would have been 122 00:07:51.000 --> 00:07:53.279 on the app days ago and been like, hey, like 123 00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:55.759 what's going on? Blah blah blah, Like it would have 124 00:07:55.839 --> 00:07:57.839 been like okay, and we're swiping and we're talking and 125 00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:00.439 we're swiping and what are we doing? Like let And 126 00:08:01.199 --> 00:08:04.160 it really didn't do that. It really was like, no, 127 00:08:04.519 --> 00:08:06.959 these people are meeting in real life. People are going 128 00:08:07.000 --> 00:08:10.079 off chemistry. They don't need one girl left her phone 129 00:08:10.319 --> 00:08:13.920 at home. Like I thought that was really interesting how 130 00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:17.839 it took the internet and phones out of the equation 131 00:08:18.000 --> 00:08:20.439 in a way that didn't feel like, oh, this isn't 132 00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:23.800 happening now. It spoke to how people when it comes 133 00:08:23.800 --> 00:08:25.439 to dating, when it comes to relationships, when it comes 134 00:08:25.480 --> 00:08:27.839 to sex, we're kind of tired of the apps. I 135 00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:28.680 think it got at that. 136 00:08:29.639 --> 00:08:32.080 I like this movie because I like anything that is 137 00:08:32.120 --> 00:08:35.519 a call that is basically a commentary on our present 138 00:08:35.679 --> 00:08:39.919 dating lives now, but set in kind of a dystopian 139 00:08:40.039 --> 00:08:43.080 or futuristic way. And I think what this does well 140 00:08:43.159 --> 00:08:45.960 is exactly what you said about the hookup culture, which 141 00:08:46.000 --> 00:08:50.720 is it is saying essentially, society seems to be forcing 142 00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:53.639 us in a direction, and there are quite a few 143 00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:58.000 people that are either resigned to their fate of going 144 00:08:58.039 --> 00:09:00.919 in that direction, which in this case is having the 145 00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:03.519 night of sex, and you know, like kind of throwing 146 00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:05.159 caution to the wind, doing what they have to do. 147 00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:08.759 And there's some people who are just like, Okay, I'll 148 00:09:08.799 --> 00:09:10.720 do it, but I don't really want to. I don't 149 00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:13.279 necessarily want to do this thing that everyone says that 150 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:16.240 I have to do, and in some cases that is 151 00:09:17.399 --> 00:09:22.200 the relationship escalator to marriage, kids, house, and another case 152 00:09:22.240 --> 00:09:24.720 is it's hookup culture. And I feel like what this 153 00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:27.440 movie does well is strike a balance between the two 154 00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.639 of those things, because they did show all of these 155 00:09:30.679 --> 00:09:33.679 people getting wild about the hook up, and in another 156 00:09:33.720 --> 00:09:36.480 case they show a couple of people who are happily married, 157 00:09:36.559 --> 00:09:39.480 or there's some indications that people are happily married and 158 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:42.919 not really worried about hooking up on this night. But 159 00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:46.600 then I like when they deal with the grappling of 160 00:09:46.639 --> 00:09:49.519 people who say, do we have to do this though, 161 00:09:49.679 --> 00:09:53.840 Like we weren't responsible for whatever caused this policy, and 162 00:09:53.879 --> 00:09:57.240 now we're kind of thrown into these circumstances that don't 163 00:09:57.320 --> 00:10:01.279 really They don't really we don't want to be a 164 00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:03.960 part of this. They like, we didn't ask for this. 165 00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:07.480 They're just thrust upon us, and we're participating because maybe 166 00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:10.039 we want to, or maybe we don't have any other choice, 167 00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:12.200 maybe we don't feel like we have any other choice. 168 00:10:12.279 --> 00:10:13.960 And I just I like a movie that does that 169 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:16.200 because that's what I feel like dating is right now. 170 00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:19.200 I feel like the apps are you are either forced 171 00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:22.039 onto an app or you're like forced to go out 172 00:10:22.039 --> 00:10:24.039 to the party so you could meet people. It seem 173 00:10:24.120 --> 00:10:26.559 like you're being social when the truth is we just 174 00:10:26.559 --> 00:10:28.440 want to meet our person while doing the things that 175 00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:30.879 we already do and hoping that they have a life 176 00:10:30.919 --> 00:10:34.360 similar to ours and settle it that way. That would 177 00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:36.399 be the nicest way, And that's kind of what happens 178 00:10:36.720 --> 00:10:37.480 in this film. 179 00:10:37.559 --> 00:10:40.960 Yeah, it was like, oh, dang, meet cutes, Like everyone 180 00:10:41.039 --> 00:10:44.080 had a meet cute, like if whether it was people 181 00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:45.919 like Oh, I'm going out with my friends and I 182 00:10:45.919 --> 00:10:48.000 met them in line for the bath and we're gonna like, 183 00:10:48.120 --> 00:10:50.759 oh we were out and about like oh, we were 184 00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.120 at a party, Like meat cutes are happening, and I 185 00:10:54.120 --> 00:10:56.039 think the world is their sy for meat cutes. One 186 00:10:56.080 --> 00:10:58.679 other thing that I appreciated, which was very realistic, was 187 00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:02.120 the way there's a sea where someone is eating soup dumplings, 188 00:11:02.120 --> 00:11:05.039 and I'm like, yeah, that happens when you eat soup dumplings. 189 00:11:04.480 --> 00:11:06.200 Correct, like the fall apart? 190 00:11:06.360 --> 00:11:10.399 Yeah, Like sorry, I'm great with chopsticks, but this is 191 00:11:10.399 --> 00:11:11.759 gonna happen with soup dumplings. 192 00:11:11.879 --> 00:11:14.960 Yeah, agreed. I thought it was very realistic in that regard. 193 00:11:15.480 --> 00:11:19.639 Do you think I'm wondering in case of the hooking. 194 00:11:20.080 --> 00:11:24.679 Sorry now I'm thinking about soup dumplings. Do you think 195 00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:27.879 with regard to especially when it comes to hookup culture, 196 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:32.240 dating all of that, do you think that this is 197 00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:34.720 this movie pro sex or anti sex? Where did you 198 00:11:34.759 --> 00:11:36.039 feel like it actually fell? 199 00:11:37.200 --> 00:11:41.159 Okay? I think that's interesting because there's a moment towards 200 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:45.039 the end that made me think, is this a promise 201 00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:48.840 ring ass movie? Is this a a Are we doing purity? 202 00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:54.039 Are we doing purity culture? And as someone who I mean, 203 00:11:54.120 --> 00:11:56.360 I don't I don't tell you grew up in church 204 00:11:56.720 --> 00:12:00.840 and during the Bush years, yeah, a lot of abstinence 205 00:12:01.440 --> 00:12:04.639 education literally in public school. 206 00:12:04.679 --> 00:12:04.919 Wow. 207 00:12:05.080 --> 00:12:08.759 Wow, And so there was a moment where it's like, hmmm, 208 00:12:09.480 --> 00:12:13.039 what are you saying? But I think I think the 209 00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:16.600 movie is pro hey, you should do what you want 210 00:12:16.639 --> 00:12:19.759 to do and happy, healthy and safe ways. Yeah, Like 211 00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:21.679 I think that's really what it comes down to, Like 212 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:28.399 we have elders. I'm getting very interesting. There's one person 213 00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:31.399 where it's like, ooh, is this gonna be like, hey, 214 00:12:31.519 --> 00:12:33.559 don't run off with that guy. See what happens, And 215 00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:35.519 it's like, no, it actually ended up fine, and like 216 00:12:35.519 --> 00:12:37.360 I'm having a great time and this is exactly what 217 00:12:37.399 --> 00:12:39.240 I wanted. We're doing what we're doing, and then there 218 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:42.759 are other people who are like, well, yeah, I like you, 219 00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:45.519 but I don't want to rush this. I kind of 220 00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:47.200 want to like get to know you and date for 221 00:12:47.279 --> 00:12:49.799 real and see what happens, and all right, if we 222 00:12:49.840 --> 00:12:51.519 got a way a year, we got a wait a year. 223 00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:55.840 So I don't I think it was on the way 224 00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:57.320 out of the movie. I did have a moment where 225 00:12:57.519 --> 00:13:00.679 is this anti sex? Is this? And I I don't 226 00:13:00.679 --> 00:13:03.600 think it falls in the line of like anti rpro. 227 00:13:03.679 --> 00:13:06.120 I think it's very much do what you want and 228 00:13:06.159 --> 00:13:10.159 a take. I'm just not used to take that nuanced anymore. 229 00:13:10.960 --> 00:13:12.759 I agree. I think it's very nuanced. I think this 230 00:13:12.840 --> 00:13:16.080 movie is pro nuance, which is good. I think it's 231 00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:18.799 it doesn't fall firmly on one side or the other. 232 00:13:19.279 --> 00:13:21.639 I think it sticks to the rules of romance in 233 00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:25.320 terms of its leads and saying, well, these two people 234 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:27.960 are falling in love and they're having some hesitations about 235 00:13:28.000 --> 00:13:30.919 their other connections, which is a very real thing that 236 00:13:31.000 --> 00:13:34.759 you don't often see depicted, saying I could hook up 237 00:13:34.759 --> 00:13:36.919 with other people. I could, but I kind of don't 238 00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:38.679 want to, you know what, I mean like I kinda 239 00:13:38.799 --> 00:13:41.679 I don't. I like, I have this opportunity, but babe, 240 00:13:41.799 --> 00:13:44.039 and it doesn't happen, and I'm kind of glad that 241 00:13:44.080 --> 00:13:46.240 it didn't because I still kind of like this person 242 00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:49.720 and I would rather put my energy into them. Yeah. 243 00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:51.879 I don't know if you go through this, but like, 244 00:13:51.960 --> 00:13:54.799 as a person who is out on the apps, sometimes 245 00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:56.639 I'm like, yeah, I'm gonna swipe, I'm gonna go on dates, 246 00:13:56.639 --> 00:13:59.120 and other times I'm like, yeah, I want to find someone, 247 00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:01.519 but I just don't feel like doing this and I'm 248 00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:02.879 not gonna do it if my heart's not in it. 249 00:14:02.960 --> 00:14:05.240 I think it's very much like, don't do it if 250 00:14:05.240 --> 00:14:06.039 your heart's not in it. 251 00:14:06.279 --> 00:14:07.320 I absolutely agree. 252 00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:10.320 I think it's also the movie is also just like 253 00:14:11.120 --> 00:14:15.679 that's a great lesson. However, the movie it's also like capitalism, capitalism, capitalism, 254 00:14:16.080 --> 00:14:23.039 oh uh, like subway signs. Every business featured in it 255 00:14:23.120 --> 00:14:25.240 acknowledges it. They're like, oh yeah, we would totally do 256 00:14:25.279 --> 00:14:28.159 it at campaign for that, and it's that almost is 257 00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:32.440 that is also dystopian, where it's just like wow, America 258 00:14:32.519 --> 00:14:37.120 runs every night and the one night like oh uh, 259 00:14:38.279 --> 00:14:40.519 want to get fluent in Spanish and. 260 00:14:40.679 --> 00:14:43.360 Love yeah, yeah, I forgot about that one. 261 00:14:43.480 --> 00:14:45.600 Yeah, it's very much like that. At the same time, 262 00:14:45.679 --> 00:14:50.960 they kind of the the an underlying plotline is them 263 00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:55.240 making fun of that shameless capitalism. Yeah, and so it's 264 00:14:55.279 --> 00:14:57.360 like it's a wink and a nod. It's a wink 265 00:14:57.360 --> 00:14:59.039 and a nod to be like, yeah, we know. 266 00:14:59.759 --> 00:15:03.840 It's savvy in the way that it incorporates advertising into 267 00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:07.799 the film itself, but also the advertising is a bit 268 00:15:07.840 --> 00:15:10.919 of a plot device that kind of is good for 269 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:15.360 world building, if you will, in a way that I enjoyed, 270 00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:18.240 I thought was good. With all of that being said, 271 00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:20.559 here on leaving the theater, we rate movies out of 272 00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:22.919 five stars. I think you know the rating system. Well, 273 00:15:23.120 --> 00:15:26.320 three means you'd see it again, five means perfect satisfying, 274 00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:31.799 one hated it, two didn't like it, four loved it. 275 00:15:31.960 --> 00:15:33.679 Jocquelin Hill, what do you rate this movie out of 276 00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:34.480 five stars? 277 00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:38.679 I'm a solid four. When the movie was ending, I 278 00:15:38.759 --> 00:15:40.799 texted several group chats where I was like, Hey, go 279 00:15:40.840 --> 00:15:44.840 see this movie. I even posted, Hey, I know it's 280 00:15:44.879 --> 00:15:47.519 become a meme and we're rolling our eyes, but this 281 00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:49.399 is actually a really cute movie. I think it's really 282 00:15:49.440 --> 00:15:53.440 good it's nice to see. Is it a mid budget wrong? Come? Also, 283 00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:57.279 who are the people friends with? Because everyone was in 284 00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:01.440 that movie? Every single person was in that movie. There 285 00:16:01.440 --> 00:16:02.600 was a moment where I was like, am I in 286 00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:06.600 this movie? Was I in this movie? Like? What? What? 287 00:16:07.799 --> 00:16:09.919 And at first I thought, Oh, it's like every now 288 00:16:10.039 --> 00:16:13.360 there's one big one. And I was like, oh, it's 289 00:16:13.399 --> 00:16:15.519 like every now, and then they're being like, hey, we 290 00:16:15.639 --> 00:16:18.080 got we got a big one. And then I was like, oh, 291 00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:20.559 this is a lot of big ones. How much did 292 00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:24.440 that cost? Were these favors called in? Some people don't 293 00:16:24.480 --> 00:16:26.720 even make an actual appearance, it's just their photo. But 294 00:16:26.799 --> 00:16:31.480 even that is like, whoa what? Whoa what? Everyone is 295 00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:32.120 in this movie. 296 00:16:33.440 --> 00:16:37.080 I give it a four point one zero stars. And 297 00:16:37.120 --> 00:16:41.000 the reason why is because I gave The Odyssey and 298 00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:44.519 The Invite four stars, and I like Spider Man a 299 00:16:44.559 --> 00:16:46.919 little more than that at four point one stars. I 300 00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:48.919 liked this as much as I like Spider Man. I 301 00:16:48.960 --> 00:16:51.480 want to see both of them again. It was just 302 00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:54.120 it was good, It was enjoyable. It was a light, 303 00:16:54.279 --> 00:16:57.679 fun time. It was for those people who listen to 304 00:16:57.720 --> 00:17:01.039 this show that are looking for a movie that is 305 00:17:01.159 --> 00:17:03.799 it's not gonna get a lot of fanfare. It's gonna 306 00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:07.279 get swallowed up by Spider Man that is already made 307 00:17:07.359 --> 00:17:10.759 a billion dollars in like six days, and it's up 308 00:17:10.799 --> 00:17:13.720 against that again this weekend. If you're looking for something 309 00:17:13.759 --> 00:17:16.160 that's not that and you want to just go to 310 00:17:16.200 --> 00:17:20.200 the movies and feel the nostalgia of being at the 311 00:17:20.279 --> 00:17:24.839 movies in a simpler time, this is the film for you. 312 00:17:25.559 --> 00:17:28.720 This is the film for you. It's just it's easy, 313 00:17:28.799 --> 00:17:31.799 it's right down the middle. It's enjoyable. I want to 314 00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:33.440 watch it again. I want to show it to a 315 00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:35.880 bunch of people. I want them all to watch it. 316 00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:39.680 I just really enjoyed it. I think there's I think 317 00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:41.799 it could have been a little shorter. I think they 318 00:17:41.799 --> 00:17:44.400 stretched the ending a little bit. That's the only reason 319 00:17:44.440 --> 00:17:46.359 why it's not getting like a four point five or 320 00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:48.680 even a five star rating, because there was a couple 321 00:17:48.720 --> 00:17:51.400 parts in which, especially at the end, where I was 322 00:17:51.440 --> 00:17:53.720 satisfied at one point, and it kind of kept going 323 00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:55.920 a little bit, maybe like two to three minutes longer 324 00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:56.920 than I think it needed to. 325 00:17:58.359 --> 00:17:59.200 I think it did a thing. 326 00:18:00.079 --> 00:18:02.640 Are alert, don't actually spoil it? 327 00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:04.680 Yeah they're. 328 00:18:06.960 --> 00:18:08.599 Yeah, do it without spoiling a jocolate. 329 00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:16.039 There is a satisfaction you want to have in the 330 00:18:16.039 --> 00:18:20.119 movie that you kind of get but don't, and I 331 00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:24.160 think they tried to have it both ways. I agree, 332 00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:26.160 And you know what, I understand why they had to 333 00:18:26.200 --> 00:18:29.680 have it both ways, because this particular element of movies 334 00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:31.240 we don't get anymore. 335 00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:32.079 We really don't. 336 00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:35.359 We don't. I one time I was homesick and I 337 00:18:35.359 --> 00:18:38.079 watched Ghost for the first time, and I was like, 338 00:18:38.279 --> 00:18:42.640 we're not doing it like this anymore. The angle like, 339 00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:46.920 we're not doing it like this anymore. And I think 340 00:18:47.440 --> 00:18:49.920 we're still not doing it like this anymore. If we were, 341 00:18:50.079 --> 00:18:53.279 we'd be out of five. But they were like, well, 342 00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:57.119 maybe we can just a little, like we can be 343 00:18:57.240 --> 00:18:59.680 like we know what the people want and one can 344 00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:03.240 give them little of it, maybe both ways, both ways, 345 00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:05.839 And it's like you can't have it both ways. 346 00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:08.759 I think there's one scene in particular, and you're right 347 00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:11.359 both ways. I think there's one scene in particular that 348 00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:17.200 just went like you either I'll just say this, you 349 00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:19.599 either in the movie with a dance number or you 350 00:19:19.720 --> 00:19:22.119 in the movie with a time jump. You cannot end 351 00:19:22.119 --> 00:19:22.599 with both. 352 00:19:23.200 --> 00:19:32.599 Ooh yeah, yeah, Actually, now I think of it. I 353 00:19:32.599 --> 00:19:36.599 think one of I think the more ridiculous ending would 354 00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:37.519 have been the best one. 355 00:19:37.720 --> 00:19:38.480 I think so too. 356 00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:40.920 I think you have been so funny. 357 00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:45.799 Actually yeah, I think you just you you there. In 358 00:19:45.839 --> 00:19:48.440 most rom coms, there's a scene where the person runs 359 00:19:48.960 --> 00:19:51.160 and it was you all along and they look at 360 00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:53.680 each other and they have a little kiss, and the 361 00:19:53.759 --> 00:19:56.680 classic ones will do the time jump right there and 362 00:19:56.720 --> 00:19:59.519 it's over, or you end on music, or you do 363 00:19:59.599 --> 00:20:02.279 the time jump and in with music in the time jump. 364 00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:04.920 You don't end with music and then fade out and 365 00:20:04.960 --> 00:20:06.599 then do a time jump. You just don't do that. 366 00:20:07.079 --> 00:20:10.039 And I think that's probably we're out of practice. So 367 00:20:10.079 --> 00:20:12.079 I'll just say that we're out of practice because that part, 368 00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:14.039 At that point, I was like, hmm, what are we 369 00:20:14.119 --> 00:20:16.960 doing here? Just we I get it. I'm happy. Stop 370 00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:19.960 stop doing what you're doing. You're you're selling past the clothes. 371 00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:23.119 As they say, you've closed the deal. You don't need 372 00:20:23.119 --> 00:20:24.160 to keep selling anymore. 373 00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:27.359 Yeah. I think we could have had a fun after 374 00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:28.440 credits scene. 375 00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:34.480 Mid credits. Yes, Hitch did that. Hitch did that. They're 376 00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:37.160 dancing through the credits and that's fine, you know what 377 00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:38.880 I mean, Like that's it is what it is. 378 00:20:38.920 --> 00:20:41.559 With all those different people. I would have loved. 379 00:20:42.960 --> 00:20:46.079 To see I'll take real. Yes in the credits. 380 00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:49.960 Yes, and there are funny people in this movie. 381 00:20:50.079 --> 00:20:51.079 I know they had some mouth ting. 382 00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:54.160 I know there's riffing. There's one with two actors where 383 00:20:54.160 --> 00:20:57.079 it's just like, what is this combination of people l 384 00:20:58.119 --> 00:20:58.599 the cops. 385 00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:02.079 Oh, I was the fake house at the bar, the 386 00:21:02.119 --> 00:21:07.640 guys at the bar. Oh. Yes, yes another one, yes, yes, yes, 387 00:21:08.319 --> 00:21:09.720 Like we're not riffing. 388 00:21:09.920 --> 00:21:13.039 We're not riffing. We're not doing more with magic cards. 389 00:21:13.119 --> 00:21:17.079 Okay, we're doing anyway. We're out of the review.
