meets cute with Pete Davidson and Kaley Cuoco streaming now for Peacock subscribers. It’s the story of a woman reliving the best first date of her life with her boyfriend Gary. As she continues to relive the day, she tries to mend her relationship with her boyfriend by shaping him from that first date. But it turns out that she has always been the perfect guy. While the “relive the same day” trope has been done before in films such as groundhog day Yes Palm Springs, the public feels fooled by some of the problems meets cutestating that it offers a negative perspective on how women behave stereotypically in relationships.
Several tweets and Facebook posts about the film are far from positive, speculating on what certain topics are trying to say about men and women. a viewer on Facebook noticed that the post was a little out of place and suggests the title was misleading, saying:
Not sure if the title goes with the movie. It is misleading. Isn’t it really funny or cute … Not sure what it is … Is it like an in-depth look at what women do to hijack relationships instead of just being a part of it? And as stated in other comments, the ending though….
a user inside Twitter he found the film funny, however he also had doubts about some elements of the plot.
#meetcute is a great movie, with great acting too. The only part that bothered me was the emotional manipulation.
Another Facebook user echoed that sentiment and struggled to understand some of the posts from this movie, not loving what Kaley Cuoco’s character did to Pete Davidson, saying:
It’s about a girl with BPD who tries and can’t get Pete to fall in love with her until she threatens to kill himself and he gives up. Terrible morality, they tried to make their manipulation and narcissism cute and romantic, it’s not … that kind of behavior is pathological abuse.
Obviously, the title led audiences in the wrong direction, not thinking this “reunion” was pretty cool at all. Currently, meets cute received mixed reviews, with some viewers praising the film for its unique take on the genre and for the performances of Cuoco and Davidson. Others liked its complex ending, saying the film added a dimension to the common tropes of romantic comedies.
As previously mentioned, time travel is a common theme in many films, however, in this film, Kaley Cuoco’s character tries to relive the same date over and over to mend their relationship. Her mental health is a factor in this decision, which many users seem to disapprove of being used as a plot for her behavior in meets cute. It’s definitely a divisive opinion and I’m sure many Peacock users will have many different opinions on this aspect of the film.
