MovieBabblePublished 3 years ago in HumansMy Review of "Happiest Season"
Happiest Season is a surprise romantic comedy that came out late in 2020. I didn't expect to like this movie as much as I did. For many it would look like a movie about a lesbian couple trying to find the right time to come out of the closet to the family. Instead I think it's a more than that and I believe a lot of us can actually relate to this movie.
Brian AnonymousPublished 3 years ago in HumansSixteen Candles? More like Sexist Candles: A Modern Review of the Cult Classic
Sixteen Candles is one of the quintessential rom-com movies that checks all of the 80s movie boxes. It stars Molly Ringwald, has a sex-obsessed teen population, the most horrendous second-hand embarrassment ever, and the cliché love story of the popular jock falling for the “unremarkable” yet beautiful girl. Not to mention, the movie has infiltrated pop culture as one of THE most romantic movies made. Despite its popularity and a plot line that makes women swoon for their own Jake Ryan, it’s littered with problematic themes that sound alarm bells louder than the gong throughout the movie, another problematic premise for another day.
The MEDA ProjectPublished 3 years ago in Humans10 Romantic Comedies That Don't Suck
So, I hate rom-coms. They are predictable, bland, and almost never funny. I generally only watch them when I’m sick (or when I came home with my newborn and lived on my couch in a sleep-deprived haze.) That’s because you can nod in and out and still know exactly what’s happening. But, some will surprise you by actually being, well, dare I say… kind of good.
Kelsey KupitzPublished 3 years ago in HumansMy Review of "Ghosts of Girlfriends Past"
Ghosts of Girlfriends Past is a romantic comedy that came out back in 2009. Seeing as it's not that long ago, watching this movie will make you realize how fast societal norms have changed in such a short time. There are a ton of antics and phrases that people use in this movie that would not be acceptable today but like many movies of this era you watch them for face value.

The wind swept through the trees, and some secret passion loitered in the great undulations, and the soft silks fell. She kissed him.
AnselRancePublished 3 years ago in HumansI'm Thinking Of Ending Things.
I have no clue how to start this review, because I have no clue what I watched. Don't get me wrong, after thinking it over , I understand the plot, for the most part, but... This movie takes away my words in a way very few have.
Wolf HazeyPublished 4 years ago in HumansTo all the boys P.S i still love you.
After the wonderfully love filled movie "To all the boys i've loved before" we were all left squirming in our seats longing to see if there was going to be a sequel, we were not left disappointed, 2 years after the original movie was released in 2018 Netflix brought out the sequel "To all the boys P.S i still love you" in February 2020.

Marielle SabbagPublished 4 years ago in HumansMovie Review: 'Dirt Music' is a Hidden Gem of 2020
There is no reason to deny it, I am a sucker for a romantic melodrama with a great soundtrack. Dirt Music, the new movie from director Gregor Jordan (Ned Kelly) and starring Garrett Hedlund and Kelly McDonald, is exactly that, a terrific romantic melodrama with a wonderful soundtrack of folksy acoustic tracks. I adored every single moment of this movie, even as I could feel the plot mechanics click-click-clicking away.

Living the same day of your life over and over again sounds pretty bad. Having that happen in 2020 seems like an absolute nightmare.
