This movie pretends to be a 4 star but is really a 2.5, I’ll meet in the middle at a 3.5 star.

Now I get why it’s called blue valentine, I’m in shambles. Really wished I hadn’t watched this during the first week of moving in with the love of my life 😭

After I got over the most burnt title for a film about a man suffering from obesity; I very much enjoyed this. Misery porn aside, Brendan Fraser's acting in this was nearly perfect, beating George of the Jungle (1997) and jussst shy of Bedazzled (2000) for my fav Brendan Fraser performances. Trigger warning for those abstaining from weed, and junk food, and also gaslighting. Sadie Sink WAS NOT acting in this film.

This movie single handled ruined my streak of watching and loving bad movies. Huge wake-up call for me, lowkey made me introspective by how terrible it was.
