    It Ends with Us

    ★★½

    I don’t know. Like was I engaged? Yes. For the most part I did fall asleep in the exposition here and there but mostly yes. Do I think it was a good display of the difficulty of the way that people struggle to get out of domestic abuse cycles? Generally yes I think. But it was off putting. She doesn’t need to be named Lily Blossom Bloom and own a flower shop. And he doesn’t need to be a rich…

    This movie was crazy. I came for the horny bisexual Zendaya billing and stayed for the absolutely insane soundtrack, cinematography, psychological warfare, and THE TENSION. This is not a silly romcom or really even about tennis. This is about glory and insecurity and marriage and brotherhood dammit!! Also I saw this tweet that was like you never know who the next hot person is gonna be because Mike Faist wouldn’t seem hot then like on screen he totally is.

    I ALSO thought this was a horror movie until, in fact, I found out via Brookes Letterboxd review that it is not. What a pleasant surprise! This movie is very cute and the costuming and colors are so fun. But it’s also really sad and has a Sad Message About Society™️
