Beauty and the Billionaire

 

Why?

I think what got me was the movie's title. I couldn't see a description but the title just looked really awful.

What in the world?

A girl has to travel to an island with her brother because he broke his leg in a scooter crashing into bike incident. She has to go around the island with his boss and surprise surprise they develop a connection.

Personal thoughts

This movie was decent. I mean there wasn't much to it. The shots of the plane were the absolute worst and best thing I've seen watching a movie lately. I mean the effort that went into it was great but the budget was clearly low. The dialogue felt really stale and that kind of ruined the movie for me. Also the ending really surprised me because I was not expecting it at all. SPOILER! He asks her brother how to make origami and he beats her to her apartment. She gets back from her flight and notices that her room is filled with regular flowers and then he's just standing there with an origami bouquet. That's nightmare fuel for me right there. Besides the headache think of all the care that those flowers need. The place was packed. I mean there wasn't a flower free space in there. I guess that's just one of the perks of dating a billionaire. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 6 out of 10. I found myself kind of enjoying the  movie but the kid actor kind of got on my nerves. She would hear a conversation and then just ask a painful question that had been answered in teh conversation. There was no reason for that so I don't know why they did that. Oh and the brother had to listen to all of the relationship drama because it was his boss and sister. I can only imagine how awkward that would be but you could tell that he didn't really want to listen to it but he was there for both of them. Probably my favorite character honestly.

Love, Game, Match

 

Why?

I saw this movie on Tubi and I knew that I had to watch it. Apparently this movie is also called Putting Love to the Test. 

What in the world?

Two teachers have to work together to put on a school carnival. They are also helping two students with a dating website that they created. The students made the website and they wanted the teachers on there to have a more wide range website. 

Personal thoughts

This movie broke me. I wanted to just yell at the people in this movie and be like "Please just stop whatever you are doing. I can't take it anymore." They were very boring and the main guy made no sense. He overheard what her favorite donut was and then just took it. I don't even know why he did that it's never explained. He also thinks that whatever he does is perfection because he did it. I mean that's some pretty good confidence but still what the heck. Also he sucks with women. I'm going to be honest. He told someone he works with that he wants to keep business and personal separate but then just goes after someone he works with. That's not ok. 

Score

I have to give this movie a 4 out of 10. It's nothing special but it wasn't the worst thing I've seen in a while. The movie showed the main character going on a couple of dates but they were weird. The one guy that wasn't that bad was really strange though. He only really wanted to go to movies and she acted like that was a normal thing. That guy's personality was entirely about just watching movies. He ended up with the previously mentioned girl so I mean that's fun. The main characters were boring and they deserved each other though,
