Materialists
I miss seeing Chris Evans, big beautiful face on the big screen. The movie was pretty solid some parts of it, though I was like meh move on but for the most part enjoyable. Not humorous, do not mistake this movie for a romcom. I will say because I saw it in the theater. Maybe I enjoyed it a little more than if I saw it at home, but we’ll never know. I think the actors were pretty good although Johnson could always be a little better in my opinion, but Chris and Pedro did great.
Spoilers ahead I think the Sophie’s plot was a little random and Johnson’s character had a strange reaction. I understand it’s to build Johnson’s character but at the end I still didn’t feel like Johnson appreciated Sophie and respected her so the message of that didn’t really come across, but I did think it was ironic how she was always trying to find people that fit the mold and ended up with someone who didn’t. so that message was good. but the wedding crashing was weird and random but overall pretty enjoyable. I will say this movie definitely won’t become a classic anytime soon. The soundtrack was fire.
