10/10 amazing movie. Everything I look in a movie , laughable bc I hardly laugh in theaters. A good storyline and amazing acting. Also I’m so happy that it’s a long movie, I’m done with those 1:30h movies. Please go watch it if you have the time! My favorite movie of 2024!

Could’ve been an email

First off I have to say, Ivan initially made me uncomfortable because he quite literally looks 16. But I think that’s a fitting choice as he acts the part as well. Just perpetually a child. And once you meet his parents and the way they enable and baby him it makes sense.

Despite the childishness though, I still thought him and Ani were gonna have their pretty woman Cinderella story. They didn’t and honestly as sad as that made me for Ani, it would’ve been pretty unrealistic. But man, the more this film went on, the more I disliked Ivan. The way he treated Ani and the way he essentially disposed of her was just bleh. But true to the selfish hedonistic person he is who cannot look past himself. Doesn’t make it any less frustrating!

On a lighter note, the comedy in this film really worked for me. My favorite part was the dad going into a laughing fit during the annulment scene. Very unserious 😭

Also I’m in love with Igor sawry. And kinda sorta in love with his relationship with Ani. It’s not the healthiest or most rational by any means but it felt genuine. Out of everyone involved in this mess, he seemed to be the only one who actually saw her as a person. Apparently people disliked the ending which I get but I thought it was beautiful :(

I was kinda scared going into this movie because I’ve seen discourse around it and it not being worth the hype but I personally get it 💆🏽‍♀️

Loved it

this was mad funny, like those three Armenian dudes were hilarious 🤣 gosh A is such a clever woman & yet so fucking stupid, did she really think V was going to help her? the dude that ran out the door & left her? i still felt so angry for her tho

that ending… just broke me
