I was kind of expecting to like this because I liked the other two movies of his I’ve seen but I didn’t… kinda funny to watch this on Easter while there’s a scene there about Easter. I just wasn’t satisfied by the story it’s not very plot heavy, which is ok, and I even liked some of the creative choices with how the story was told with monologues + breaking the fourth wall… I think I just found Alvy to be too annoying and that ruined it for me

Loved it. Actually romantic comedy to me. I’m not even a Zendaya stan but she is in like 2 out of the 5 best movies to come out in the last 5 years

Goosebump cityyyy… best movie I’ve seen all year

I think this movie is about how every choice you make is a part of who you are, and how you could have made all the ‘right’ choices / love the life you’ve made for yourself, and still be devastated by what could have been. The capacity to hold all of these truths weighs heavily on the heart

I think this movie is about fate bringing you together and subsequently ripping you apart, and any other outcome would be less painful but also less profound
