A person on Reddit said that Zack and Nicole were having a Botox off 😭
LMAO theyre both so uncanny valley

It really upsets me how much Netflix seems to hate animated content, so many great shows have been cancelled before they got good
my 11-month-old daughter said this exact same thing, she turned off the TV and said “mommy this is terrible, let’s watch The Great British Baking Show and learn how to make cake fondant.”
@@yoshe2 my one hour old baby said the same thing
Lolll
@@yoshe2agreed
No just Netflix, mainstream companies aré cancelling animated projects left and right, even before they see the light of day
Can't believe they cancelled 'Lockwood & Co' because it "wasn't popular enough" but they keep putting out shit like this...
That show was so good so much potential
I desperately hope they won't cancel Dead Boy Detectives.
Omg I was waiting for me more of that show.. they really do cancel all the good series.
@@benzaiten933they are
Unfortunately Netflix doesn’t care if a show/movie is good or terrible. All they care about is if it makes them money
...the 24 yr old nepo baby throwing out "I'm moving out" as an ultimatum for the mom dating a movie star threw me in for a loop like- OKAY BYE???
FOR REAL
Btw, I really enjoy your videos.
Idk, I understand being uncomfortable about your mom dating your boss?
never forgetting they cancelled anne with an e but keeps producing this kind of shit
to be fair i think the Canadian network that made it canceled it.
@@bethanychatman9531 Nope ! Netflix had (still have) half the rights and wanted to stop production. The Canadian network offered to buy the rights back to keep producing and Netlfix point-blanked refused.
I'm glad they cancelled Anne with an e they totally messed up the story by trying to make it for "modern audiences"

Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron hooking up feels like a fever dream.
Didn't they do this already in McConaughey movie?
@@bigbearkat2010 sure did: The Paperboy! Waaaaay better than this trash, though that's clearly not difficult to do lol.
It kinda was but it worked😂❤
I have no issue w that. Theyre both old enough and anyone who wouldn't go for Nicole Kidman is batshit
I bet Zac felt like the luckiest guy 😂
I don’t think I have ever watched a movie with a more annoying and self absorbed main character than Zara
Sex and the city movies?
Bruh have you not watched those God awful kissing booth movies that has one of the most obnoxious main characters oddly enough starring Joey King😂
@@Kalel2.0 I actually avoided them after seeing commentators’ videos on them 😂 unfortunately I wasn’t so lucky with a Family Affair
I hate to say it but Disney’s “Prom Pact” she’s almost just as bad. Great actress. Good movie. Horrible main character
The summer I turned pretty
Watching Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron on screen together makes me so uncomfortable. They don’t even look human, just strange caricatures. They’re actors yet they chose to pump their faces full of filler, botox, and steroids, they can’t even express any emotions or move their faces. I feel bad that they were pressured by the industry to deface themselves to stay relevant or keep up with unattainable standards of beauty. But man are their faces unsettling…
Pretty sure Zac broke his jaw and what we're seeing is the result of the treatments...
@@Mopark25 That's a damn lie. He always says this, but his face was fine for months after the supposed "accident". He's botched - Mickey Rouke status and is trying to make us believe otherwise.
@@Utada379 Who cares?
Zac shattered his jaw.
They starred together in The Paperboy and looked great together then.
I kinda understand why it would be weird for your mum to date your boss. Feels like an overstepped boundary.
I agree
Yes a boss you dislike even more so!
Also he dumps and uses women so yea . No one would in sound mind would watch their mother date a player.
I know! And then people are calling Zara selfish for not wanting it to happen? I stopped watching after she went to hospital, cus I was bored of the movie and mad at the mum, but honestly seemed like the mum was the stupid selfish one - THAT'S HET ABUSIVE BOSS! Not only is it weird to date your kid's boss, dating your kids abusive boss is just saying, i know he was awful to you, but I'm horny so you need to get over it. And yes, she has seen how he views women and relationships, of course she doesnt want her mum to go through that!
Yeah also because of the age gap like 💀
I'm convinced Zac Effron is evolving into David Hasslehoff.
Like Leonardo di Caprio is evolving into Jack Nicholson.
That's hilarious. Zac was in the Baywatch remake *with* David Hasselhoff
I was absolutely saying this
Finally someone with the same thought as me! The whole time I was thinking when will he star in the biopic of the behind the scenes baywatch period of David Hasslehoffs life? 😂
I think that’s what he’s actively trying to do 😅
Zack and Nicole don't look human the uncanny vibes makes it hard to watch this, normal people wouldn't be attracted to faces that are altered that much.
This is exactly what I said to my husband! It somehow felt creepy to watch. I was uncomfortable the whole time.
Maybe that's why they like each other
Oof I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought that 😂
His chin was really distracting to me while watching Iron Claw and it just kind of reminds me of what happened to Mickey Rourke when he took up boxing
@@bigbearkat2010it seems like he had a accident and that’s why he looks different 😅
If you consider 'A family affair' worse than 365 DAYS, then I don't want to watch it
It IS worse....
My farts are better than Alex’s farts 💨
It was good
I found it cute but predictable. maybe because i liked Zac in the end even though i couldn't really believe him in the " a--hole boss" role ... and it did make me chuckle at the "his skin is so close to me! eww" and her puke sounds. So that's that😅
Is that Wei Wuxian in your pp??
It’s just so weird to me to look at these incredibly lifted and distorted faces. Wtf.
It’s so uncanny. They don’t like human
When I watched this movie, I thought Zara and Chris would have a sibling type of relationship, which I thought would be fun, but that is not how it went...
Honestly, I know the movie was trying to make us love Zac and the mom together, but it just made me uncomfortable. Like yeah, Zara was pretty selfish and immature throughout the movie, but like, imagine having a boss you hate and have been actively complaining about to your mom for 2 years, and THEN SHE STARTS DATING HIM??? Now you just have to pretend like you haven't been talking crap about him for the past 2 years?? That would be so uncomfortable, man.
This would have made a whole lot more sense if the mom didn't realize he was her boss till later. Honestly, I may have been on board with the ship if that was the case.
I'm still upset that I was robbed of the brother sister relationship I thought I was gonna get
And She did watch him womanizing and her mom prob knows too?
He’s a celebrity so if course she would know who her boss is regardless. The guy would have to not be famous at all for that work. I think they thought it would be funnier than it was, but Zara hating him so much made it even weirder 😆
Netflix is just making a million shows and movies a day and everything not made by them never stays on their platform and I hate it
And they are also made for cranky millennials and gen zoomers and that’s why I miss old netflix
My farts are better than Alex’s farts 💨
@@p-__ bet
Me too, and it's even worse... One of my favorites, All Hail King Julien, was made for Netflix and they still recently removed it.
I’m really angry that they removed like eleven seasons of NCIS, like I loved those seasons. I literally stopped at season 14 because I just couldn’t watch the rest.
Amazon Prime has "The Idea of You", so Netflix has "A Family Affair." Similar concepts with Older Single Mother, Younger Famous Man, that happened to come out within over a month of each other!
I dont understand the hate towards Damsel it was dumb fun I liked it. 😊😊
Where is the concept of the older woman and younger man in this movie?
I had the same thought. Like this is gonna be ALL of our romcoms for a while - young dudes hooking up with someone’s mom. Not just older ladies. Specifically someone’s mom. Bc that’s a good way to drive conflict…I guess?
and it really higlights how less is sometimes more
the idea of you is very cheesy, but its a romcom, and romcom done right, it wont win any awards, but if you are up for watching a romcom that tells you exactly what i is, its near perfect for that, and it does its job exceptionally well
but this is... just a pile of garbage, a complete mess, no direciton or main point, and in comparison to theidea of you, no beauty in its simplicity, and my God definitely not beauty in its complexity or nuance to contrast the idea of you
@@trinaq yeah also picked up on that 🙈
The script got sent to Zac Efron with Noah Centineo's coffee stains on it.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
lmaooooo definitely
So what is that guy up to these days!? He just vanished?
@@IraserH ?? He was literally on a Netflix show like this year or last year lol where he's some government agent person.

Was going to say, how the hell would an assistant that gets coffee ever expect to "move up" to being a producer? Like imagine some school grounds keeper thinking they can do it for a year and then be given the principals job.
Of course then I remembered ex assistant leslye headland did just that and was put in charge of 180 million star wars tv show. What a crazy place Hollywood is
Look at the woman making the new Star Wars acolyte. She started out as Harvey weinstein’s assistant and now she has her own show.
@joker9494949494 yes her name is leslye headland. I mentioned her in my comment.
It's pretty standard procedure for a lot of corporate industries tbh. Being an assistant not only gets you a foot in the door, but it also puts you in the ideal position to network since you're going to be rubbing shoulders with people who generally have more pull. Not only that, you also get soooo much exposure to all sides of the business and end up becoming a mini COO in your own way if you play your cards right. It's super easy to use that to move up in the world, especially since being an assistant is essentially just a project management job in its own right.
@@shadypalmtree2989 an assistant is NOT a project management job. You can wish that, but doesn't make it so. If you can go from assistant to something like producer etc. It means that the higher level job is total bullshit.
@@nedflanders4158 I said it essentially is. As in, it has the hallmarks of many project management roles. People also seem to have a very basic idea of what an assistant does and don’t seem to understand that it’s usually more than just grabbing coffee or making copies or scheduling meetings. A lot of them are more involved and take on outside projects while also juggling the above. Just like how project management changes across industries, so do assisting across industries and even within companies. It’s a very versatile role that a lot of people underestimate because it’s what the assistant and whomever they’re supporting make it.
You know what the worst part of the movie is? This is gonna reinforce the idea in teenagers that they need to be in charge of a company by the age of 24 and if they dont it will hurt their feelings.
True, and this isn't talked about enough. Hollywood needs to stop spreading this idea that if you aren't in charge of a company in your early to mid 20s, you're a "loser". Being an assistant for a famous celebrity is a much more impressive job than the jobs most 24 year olds have.
@@mynameisreallycool1 yep it s ridiculous .. I m a very late milenial(95 born) but this whole be a boss when you re like 22 was NEVER EVER a thing in my gen
Exactly! She truly did not deserve this promotion simply bc she worked for one celebrity right after college-smh. It was so difficult to hear her whining and face no real consequences
also the idea that relationships with such a big age gap are normal wtf
Zac Efron's new face is really unsettling
you mean Handsome Squidward
Looks like Liberace, it's very sad.
Literally makes me want to CRY! He went from a 10 to a 5!😩
The topic of Netflix content was actually recently talked about amongst film/tv crew. I quote someone's comment, "Netflix has bought just any content they can get their hands on, their library is absolutely flooded with content nobody wants to watch and now they are in a lot of debt." Consequence of their own making. This is what happens when you keep dishing out money on the same ideas already out there, do it poorly, and refuse to invest in innovation; resulting in an abundance of high quantity, low quality.
My farts are better than Alex’s farts 💨
Sounds exactly like current HBO max discovery. But more so discovery for their own flood.
Lmfao since when has Netflix been in debt? They make BILLIONS in profits every year.
But it worked for Walmart! ... Netflix, probably.
Makes sense on why they have been releasing game shows one episode a week like it’s the Game of Thrones or something. They seem desperate to keep subscribers.
I felt so called out as 24yr old who just turned 25 and still have made no progress in my career😅😅😅
You will❤
It's not a new thing. I haven't worked for a long time due to a back injury but back when I worked in the public service they had a new crop that had gone to uni first rather than get in the old fashioned way of taking the public service exam at 18. I don't know what they were promised but many moaned they hadn't been promoted to top jobs after working there for 2 years straight out of uni. Many left because of it and that was 20 odd years ago. Most grow up in the end. A few don't.

Friendly Space Ninja made a video, “Damsel and the Netflix movie curse”, and in it, he has a theory, which is honestly amazing beginning to agree with. These movies they are putting out aren’t movies. They’re ads for Netflix. They cast as many big name/recognizable actors as they can, give them mediocre and boring lines and plot. Because the plot doesn’t matter. Drawing in new subscribers is what matters.
You right about Efron's face. Its tragic. Same thing happened to Starlight on that show "The Boys", Hollywood convinced them they weren't good looking enough
Completely agree. 100%
Why do people always put the fault in "faceless industries"... hollywood is made up of actors, they are the ones who push beauty standards. The fact that they themselves feel the pressure that they created does not take their responsability away. People need to start being accountable for what they do
She was SO pretty and now she looks so old and her lips and cheekbones look so wrong. I wish she could see how pretty she was before all that.
This new season of The Boys is like the premiere of new faces. MM lost weight. Becca'a ghost also has a new face now. It's wild
It is sad, are we going back to the 2010 ugly makups with too much of everything? (Yes I know, it's been around before, but the early 2K, I don't know what they were thinking, and it has gotten worse. Damn, stand for who you are damn it..
I couldn’t help but think so much of the movie looked incredibly low budget camera quality wise, like Joey in the car at the start was jaw droppingly bad
Isn't that what most movies look like now? They strip away the color and personality of films they just look like they were shot on an iPhone with the lowest sounds and dimmer brightness. They all look like ads.
@@xjk8977it's like buying bottled water
They really tried to convince us that getting his jaw shattered or whatever gave Zac Efron a lip surgery, cheek fillers and nose job as well 😂
Leave Zac alone. He’s sad about it.
I'm glad I finally know. His chin distracted me so much in Iron Claw, I thought it was some kind of prothestic.

I'm honestly more disturbed by how Nicole Kidman looks like. She looks like she's wearing a mask.
oh damn, I didn't even recognize her.
Zac ain't far behind. Idk what they were thinking in post production doing that to their faces.
Geez
@Fantastic_Stranger they did that in editing?
@@TroboTicTac Seems like they "retouched" his face. I'm not 100% certain or anything but the movie makes his face look kinda weird
As soon as I saw that kissing booth actress, I knew it was gonna be bad
She's actually so much better in action movies. She just doesn't work in romantic comedies.
She’s actually a great actress. She was great in movies where she was younger and have you seen her in Bullet Train? Great comedic timing and drama.
Joey King (the actor) was also in another movie, White House Down, fun movie ngl but she's really not a BAD actor. It's just some of the movies she's been in lol
I really enjoyed Bullet Train and her acting was _okay_ but she just needs to pick better projects
For me, it's the cute girl from pretty little liers. I recognize her in any project and immediately know it's gonna be horrible
he looks so old, I almost didn't recognize him, he looks older than 34
For real, I didn't even realise it was him when I first saw it scrolling through netflix. He barely looks like himself anymore.
WHAT?? He’s 36?😭😭 I genuinely thought he was at least in his late 40’s💀
@@sofihernandez647 yes I thought so to, I was waiting to see what role zac would have and then I realized 😅
Hopefully he had therapy for that, I can only imagine looking yourself in the mirror and you look completely different because of an injury 😢 We can't recognize him much less how he views himself🙏🏽
@@deandradaniels2596 I was thinking the same, besides to make such a change it had to be a horrific injury with a long recovery. even if he had some extra things done, it had to be so painful.

Sir, I am going to need you to stop spying on me.
Netflix is out here cancelling gems like inside job then producing this hot garbage instead.
FREE my girl Joey King from all of these dumpster fires Netflix calls movies😭
I hope Joey King doesn't get plastic surgery like the other main cast in this movie lol
maybe she needs the money lol. she's a very talented actress imo.
She was really good in The Conjuring and she was only 13 then.

yes!! she's a good actress imo I really like her, she can surely get better gigs than these
Real talk I would be upset with my mom too if I came home and she was sleeping with my boss that I told her it has been taking advantage of me for the past 2 years.
But he didn't take advantage of her. He had her do her job
@@butsagyton5093fair, but from the mum’s perspective she didn’t know that. She’d only got Zara’s perspective on it
100% I was so mad how the mom thought it was ok to date her daughter's boss!!!!
One of the reasons I couldn't stand The Kissing Booth was Joey King's character does the Devil's Tango with a guy she's witnessed torment her best friend for years.
What is with Joey King doing these movies that promote family members hooking up with a toxic person?
THANK YOU! I've seen so many people talking about how selfish she (meaning Zara) is... i dont know. Tbf, i stopped watching when mum invented abusive boss to Christmas with the fam. like, WHAT!? Mum, you know how horrible he's been to her, and you bring him along for some turkey and brussels?? No. Not cool. Maybe all the 'selfishness' is after that, but shes certainly reasonable for not wanting her mum to date that pos.
I watched this movie last night and i could not get through this it is SOOOOOOO BAD.
Same!! I ended up skipping so much
Agreed they make random garbage but atleast Ultraman Rising saved the platform
It committed the worst crime, which is being boring.
Right. I tried watching it earlier and man it was so boring and hilariously bad but heyy at least Efron and Kidman got a big pay day out it for not doing much😂
@@Kalel2.0 frrrr lol
Woof. Even the clips in this recap were hard to get through!! Thank you for your service
I don’t think we can say much about the quality based on the cast because Kathy Bates and Pedro Pascal were in Merge Mansion ads
This feels like a mini series that was cut into a movie. Could've made this a 6 to 8 episode show to flesh out all the characters and keep deep into the story. They could've made it a commentary on how people in their 20s think they need to have everything all figured out before they're 30, because social media. Chris could've trained Zara for the next step of her career. We could've find out more about the mom. There were too many plot lines and too much haste. This should've been a show.
THIS!!!! ^^^^^ all of this!! Considering Zac said this movie was a “The Office” type of movie. I’m like it should have been a show!!!
Super interesting take!
The way Alex explained the movie in this video, I thought...sounds like it could've been a series.
Exactly! This comment is what I’ve been searching for. It feels like it’s trying to be a TV series instead of a movie.
agreed. i feel like the plot/story wasn't deep enough for us to care about the characters and it just wasn't interesting enough in general.

Rest in peace the possibility of Zac Efron aging like fine wine, now he’s aging like a McDonald’s hamburger
In fairness it's perfectly valid to come unglued if your parent starts dating your boss, yikes boundaries
Yeah, I think the same! Especially if the relationship to the boss is so rocky and weird
Ah so you’re the type of person who watches these bad Netflix movies un-ironically. Fascinating.
How's this girl offended that her boss is mad that she's 2 hours late to work? it wasn't even like he said to be here at 4am... it was like 8:30am or something, it wasn't unreasonable at all. And picking up his stuff from his ex's place? It's not like he's asking her to break up for him... I've seen that before in some books were they have actual a-hole bosses, this one is just pick up my things... like a personal assistant would do.
OK, because you read of bad bosses means you know what approotar or not? The boss was wack, and I think it's weird people are willing to defend him but not the employer. It's honestly funny to read a comment like this. People think they can access it as a boss or manager. Do you think being late is worse than involving your employee in a romantic affair??? I would never want to work for you.
Yeah the late part was weird but it also looked like she was stuck in traffic when they were on the phone. Also for the picking up his stuff from his exes. It seemed like she only didn't want to do it bc he keep doing the same thing every 2-3 months and when she goes back she has to deal with the ex crying or angry ranting at her. I'm not defending her just saying that was her main reason for pushing back on that.
I personally don't know how a personal assistant is supposed to be like or what is their tasks but I do agree it seemed like typical things she would have known is her job.
i understand her not wanting to pick up his things from his exes houses because some of them probably get really nasty
@@lacvna. I can understand, but I still don't get getting mad that he's mad that she's that late. Although she works for a celebrity, they are eccentric people in general.
@@snoopygonewilder yeah i think he overreacted with being mad to the point of changing the password it's just a little more reasonable than making her deal with his exes by herself 😭
Why does it look so low budget when it has good actors?
Because of marketing tactics
maybe they spent most of the money paying these star rated actors and left none for the writing and production.
yeah right, the camara shots are soo bad.
I was going to say this was written by a Nepo baby like Zara's character (and it might be true still), but I saw that it was written by... a production assistant, Carrie Solomon. So, I think this is a fanfic about herself 🫢 and she got to put all these famous actors in her fantasy movie.
But why did the actors agree unless they were paid big bucks? As a non US Netflix sub who doesn't watch US content, Netflix has 3 times world subs as US/Canadian combined and I'm beginning to think I'm subsidising HW content over the content I do watch and I'm not happy about it. It's no wonder they hide the real view figures so we won't find out.
Yeah, I saw that too. She got writing credits but clearly wanted to direct it. That’s where the “conflict” arises. This is all pulled from her life and the actors.
How is it that Zac Efron looks almost the same age as Nicole Kidman, when he’s still in his 30s and she’s almost 60! It seems like just yesterday when he still had a babyface and was acting in teen movies. I’m not shading Zac, but Nicole looks great, they both look like they’re in their 40s.
I swear, it should've been called A Family of Botox 😂
WAIT you mean not turning up on time for your job is an issue in this movie????
Holy shit.Being a personal assistant of a super famous actor at fucking TWENTY FOUR is a literal dream job. Imagine all the opportunity, all the people she's meeting, events she's attending....and she's complaining! What?!
It's not. They will treat u like garbage. Have no personal time and do their dirty work. Their fame will allow them to treat u like a slave.
@@leiajiang7877 are you the personal assistant of a super famous actor in Hollywood at 24? Probably not, so all that stuff you just said was wild speculation.
@@fungenie9046 buddy if u don't think the people in Hollywood are horrible, u have seen not enough of this world.
Did you watch the devil wears prada and think 'why is andy complaining? This is such an amazing opportunity!' Only difference here is it isnt presented as drama. Mate, it doesnt matter how good of an opportunity it is, no one should have to put up with that kind of abuse, especially from a boss.
Even leaving aside whether or not irl Hollywood people are this bad, what she has to put up with from this guy, he berates her, repeatedly threatens to fire her over the smallest things, is more than worthy of complaining about!
@@gracegaskell8068 To be fair, the two times we see him threatening to fire her, she is late. Being late to your job isn't such a small thing and is something you could legitimately get fired for.
Not that I'm saying she should put up with abuse from her boss but apart from the 'buy birthday present for my dogs from your own money' schtick, Zac's character wasn't so unreasonable.
Oh, Nicole's 'work' is not that subtle, in Being the Ricardo's she looked so weird, like an animatronic, her face didn't move like at all, they tried to hide it with make up which just made it worse. I didn't realize it was her even until the second half of the movie. Glad she's doing better now.
Damn, Zack got old , and probably older after the plastic shit 😂
Zac Efron hasn't ever had any plastic surgery, at least not the kind you're likely referring to or any type of *elective* procedures. He did have to have some reconstructive plastic surgery to repair a badly broken jaw after sustaining an injury at his home. He had to have his jaw wired shut for some time and undergo a bunch of physical therapy and such after the procedure. Efron has admitted that he slacked off on the PT/OT quite a bit due to his schedule at the time (which also involved production for this film) which unfortunately led to the injury healing improperly without the guidance of consistent PT/OT, resulting in excess swelling/inflammation and accumulation of scar tissue. Ultimately this caused the affected musculoskeletal structures to compensate on their own leading to the misalignment and the odd appearance of his facial structure.
It should also be pointed out that "the camera" tends to add about 5 to 10 years to one's appearance in general. Furthermore this piece in particular was rather abysmal from a technical perspective, being so horrendously shot and composed, very poorly lit throughout, and absolutely heinous from a makeup perspective. All actors have to endure a sit in the makeup chair regardless just to make them appear "normal" onscreen. Whoever was responsible for the makeup for this production was either really green or just downright incompetent, if not both. Just seems to further illustrate the Netflix pattern of cutting corners and rushing productions in order to churn out new shit content seemingly entirely for its own sake... At any rate these factors certainly play a role in making Zac appear a bit more aged than he actually is.
Plus I mean there's something to be said about a life in the limelight and the stresses that accompany such a lifestyle... The psychological and physiological stressors of that existence tend to cause celebrities to begin showing their age far sooner and more dramatically than the everyday average schmuck.

@@thisusernameisamazing4184 So what if Alex said it in the video? No one actually believes ZE hasn't had plastic surgery.
13:58 I got an ad with a kind holding a bag of mozzarella 😂 "you were keeping THAT on you??"
I actually think Liza Koshy did a great job with the role she was given, she was believable and Joey King was just over the top annoying
Hahaha "socks for Christmas cause it's such a practical gift" speaks to me more than it should.
I am 42, and since age 35, I have asked my parents for socks, underwear, and undershirts, even giving sizes and preferred brands. It really is practical, and much more personal than just receiving a gift card.
Who would've thought Zach Efron made it to the uncanny valley.
This video title was changed from "Are Netflix movies getting worse?" So quickly lmao
I did not know about the jaw surgery because of something something but when I saw him I was literally like wtf happened to this guy???! he looks like a buffed up bully type trope guy now. and no your face structure does not change that drastically as you age. with lip fillers and buff jaw like the handsome squidward meme.
Alex: WHO IS THIS MOVIE FOR!?!
Me: It's me, hi. I'm the problem. It's me.
omg Kathy Bates is aging so well.
Yes, she's gorgeous
She's the best looking person in the movie
So glad you did a commentary on it. I literally skipped thru the scenes between them. They had no chemistry whatsoever and im sooooo glad i get to watch you hate it all as well 💀💀
Whether we're prepared to admit it or not, we as humans still have trouble accepting an older woman with a younger man. There is nothing wrong with it happening but it has the capacity to make us uncomfortable. It's just the way it is.
@@tkps I really don't give a fuck about age gaps and nowhere did i say i was uncomfortable. These actors had no chemistry together and it all happened so fast, I couldn't take it seriously. As alex said, this movie was trying to do way too much. 'It's just the way it is.' GIRL BYE nobody cares abt that, this was simply a shitty movie with shitty actors which is the only reason i barely finished it
This movie is in the category of “movies about women who apparently think ‘being a woman’ synonymous with ‘sleeping with someone who could be your son who has a previous relationship with or to your daughter’” which I think is a genre we need to end immediately.
It could have been an okay comedy if it was just about a disgruntled young adult working for a celebrity and their blossoming friendship. 😂
AGREED!!! 👌🏾🔥
The amount of recent movies that fall into this category is so concerning.
Zac Efron looks like a double of David Hasselhof.
The same excuse Zafron used about his weird change we had to be reminded of during the movie.
In case we would get distracted.
They could never make me hate you Zac Efron
Entitlement...THE MOVIE! ~ With accompanying title tag line "I AM SUPER SERIOUS" hahaahahaha
The mum's entitlement to dating her daughters boss was the worst thing. I couldnt get past the date. Maybe Zara got worse after that, but no. If the mum was dating ANYONE else, i would agree, but i thibk it's very reasonable to not want to see your awful boss at the Christmas dinner table!
Joey King was... herself in kissing booth. It was the first thing I saw her in and I thought huh, not bad acting from her. And in the Act she did a great job. But now she plays her kissing booth character in EVERYTHING so the acting comes off as either stale or bad compared to other actors
She was decent in The Bullet Train to be fair..
@hrishishotte Not seen that one. I've seen a few things and it just felt like characters I'd already seen. Think it just depends on the directing and character personality
@@phelovepokemonyou should see bullet train! She’s good in that & a completely different character 😊
I dunno bullet train was great with her and she played a polish/Jewish refugee during ww2 in "We were the lucky ones" and that was pretty good drama role.
@@Emilie_wallin idk movie's like Bullet Train are fun, but none of those roles were hard to play. I still think the act was her best role, but ever since that, it's like it's been her agent's mission to keep her in these cheesy, brainrottingly unfunny roles.
holy crap, zach efron looks like a baby in the high school musical movies compared to this. time flies.
Time didn’t mess up his face, he did
The other HSM cast members are around the same age as him or older, but they all look much younger than him. Lucas Grabeel (aka Ryan Evans) is almost 40. He's older than Zach yet looks two decades younger. Zach had a lot of surgery that caused him to look older than he actually is. He's still young.
I've been watching your videos for quite some weeks, maybe some months, and I've realised that your animation is really cute. It's a real pleasure to look at it.
Also, did you make a video watching Dirty Dancing ? If not, will you make one ? It's literally one of the most iconic teen romance movies, which seems like your thing.
8:40 I don’t know why this was so funny to me, but I almost spat out my sushi when I busted out laughing. 😂😭 Maybe it’s because I’ve had that happen too many times, then I go to the guys profile and it indeed does say “father of 3” or something. 😂😂😂
Zac Efron and Nicole Kidman must have went to the same plastic surgeon. Their mouths look exactly the same😂
Stop lying bro
😂😂😂😂
Must have gone*
still think Ultraman Rising is the best Netflix movie of the year. No explanation needed. Now, time to babysit a baby kaiju
Wholeheartedly agree
@@chiderakalaji7206 Thank you
💯 it was so good
They canceled shadow and bone for THIS?
Shadow and bone is cancelled?????,
Am I the only one that feels like Nicole Kidman is always awkward tho😭
12:41 she's supposed to be in her 20's, why the heck is she behaving like a teenager
She is a brat! She isn’t the parent, but acting like she is!😡
This is a Hallmark style movie, which Netflix always had, the ones from other countries are usually pretty good. The difference is stars decided they wanted the easy Netflix money.
𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐚𝐚
😅
0:48 is the cutest animation I have ever seen and yes I now imagine Alex sitting like that when he rants. :D
According to Efron he broke his jaw running through his house while wearing socks, slipped and caught his jaw on a granite fountain. It nocked him out. He had to have it wired shut and underwent physical therapy which he skimped on during filming for his forgotten docu series, thus his jaw muscles had to compensate and swelled up
🤦🏼♀️
in 2013.
Please, don't tell me that it's an actual explanation, that he is using for... Whatever chad-like faced accident he had?!
It's on the same level as "my dog ate my homework bullshit."
you look like the type of person thats dumb enough to believe that
The fact that nikole cannot move her upper lip when she talks and zac afron cannot move anything on his face except his mouth...was very uncanny valley to me. I couldnt focus on the movie...in the end i was like " meh not that bad" guess it was for the better that i did could not pay attention hahahaha
There’s no way Zac doesn’t have botched facial implants
According to Efron he broke his jaw running through his house while wearing socks, slipped and caught his jaw on a granite fountain. It nocked him out. He had to have it wired shut and underwent physical therapy which he skimped on during filming for his forgotten docu series, thus his jaw muscles had to compensate and swelled up
@@spiderlegspinch9001 and he’s almost back to normal now that he’s not training anymore.
Lies
it doesn't puff up his lips or cheejs tho. hes def had some filler
People are commenting that accident happened in 2013 and it's only recently his jaw looks a different shape so if they're right there's something else going on.
Yeah. I saw a video by Dr. Gary Linkov and he said it looks like Efron had a 3D printed jaw implant plus fat transplants, and he started getting the work done in 2021 so yeah definitely looks like he's kinda using his injury as a way to cover up plastic surgery
After almost 6 years. It finally comes out. Poor Zac man did not deserve that.
Having sex with your daughter womaniser boss 5 minutes after meeting him IS a bad move on mom’s part.
But honestly I think it would’ve been cool mom & daughter story, if the boss did actually dump her mom at the end and she would say something like “hey it’s ok I had some fun time with him and break ups happen that’s life”.
Them getting back together is too boring and cheesy.
They also could’ve emphasised him being a horrible man more. Like if he was more mean to his ex girlfriends or something.
Netflix loves to punch out these garbage movies with over inflated budgets but won't give other quality works a second thought before pulling the plug.
Zac looks like he inhaled the Joker gas and his face has remained stuck ever since.
Elijah Wood looks exactly the same he just has some gray hair.
Zach in this looks like human shrek
Or Farquaad
Human Shrek is attractive though
Handsome squidward😂
You might need to rephrase that to "Netflix live-action movies" are getting worse, cause I don't think they really have bad animated movies.
I mean Netflix has cancelled a lot of animated shows so it's not that too farfetched...
That is not the Zac Efron I know...
That right there is Steve Zahn
Netflix is basically becoming the Sy-Fy channel of streaming. With how it keeps cancelling good shows and never finishing them but keeps green lighting garbage like this.
While Netflix has produced good movies, most of them are either decent or trash with movies like You People at best and Cuties and Blonde at worst. Netflix seriously needs to stop lowering the bar to get more viewers to their service. Many people have joked about people going to Netflix just for their series and documentaries.
omg, i totally forgot about cuties
@@grapestastelikechesse653 That's great, honestly. I hope everyone just forgets that.
What’s wrong with ‘Blonde’? Some of us aren’t prudes and actually enjoy watching NC-17 movies.
@@Hazaerdtor perhaps people don't go to netflix to just watch soft porn
@@Hazaerdt The movie being NC-17 isn't the issue. It exploits Marilyn Monroe and treats her like a victim rather than a real person who had faced trauma and turned that trauma into something positive. For anyone who defends that movie, you must love seeing women in pain.
That's Zac?!?! Good lord😅😂
I agree he looks really different.
These AI written films really are getting out of hand.
13:13 does 24 even count as mid twenties😭😭
... yes?? Unless you strickly ONLY count 25 as 'mid' 20s. Yes. Only being one year off counts.
For me 20, 21, 22, and 23 are early twenties, 24, 25, 26, and 27 are mid twenties, and 28 and 29 are late twenties. Also applies to every other decade obviously
apart from zara needing to be a CEO at 24 so badly that she acts like a teen more than half the movie, she was kinda right for callin out her narcissistic boss when she saw the red flags to protect her mom.. kinda relatable tbh lol idk why she was made to be the villain for that which is weird and a bit messed up, like zacs character was the epitome of self absorbed. Like hello he plays ICARUS hahahahah
Wow that King girl always acts the same, huh?
@@byalexnava which was fine when she was a child star but as an adult it's getting old
That or she’s been typecasted
she has been typecasted, but she did a great job at "the act" which tells the story about Gypsy Rose
She was different in bullet train
She just REALLY needs to get a different agent. I'd love to see her in like a Wes Anderson movie, or Suspiria 2018, or at least directed by someone with the acclaim and the chops.
Her performances in Bullet Train and The Act show she can really act when given the proper material, she just needs to get a manager that's not putting her in schlock like this.
No, they were always hit or miss. Mostly miss.
Please try Barbie and the Island Princess. It's great. A staple of my childhood.
I'd like him to watch that too. I also can't wait for him to do Inside Out 2.
MY CHILDHOOD- I loved Ro's animal companions, the peacock is an icon to this day. And the songs, especially "I need to know", SO GOOD
@@iclynnx I know! Also "Love is for Peasants" and "The Rat Song" show that it is great for both hero and villain songs.
Yes 🙌 the Barbie movies are a staple to a great childhood
SUCH a good movie! But oooooo man that elephant 😭
Not the SpongeBob voice "I hAvE tO sTaY tRuE tO mYsElF"😂
You can tell this was written by some young person in like their early 20s because a lot of people around that age lately have been giant whiners complaining how their life isn’t figured out yet and nothing works out for them and everything is someone else’s fault and getting kind of annoying. I’m gonna be 30 in a year and my life is only just now starting to feel figured out and like things are going in the right track figured out sooner but everything worked out by the time you’re 24 is really unlikely. You get a college degree you’re probably barely out of college at that point and if you don’t get a college degree, you still only been you know trying to figure things out for four or five years of that point.
She’s also incredibly entitled, which is how a lot of younger people act lately like everything should just go their way and be handed to them because they weren’t told no enough or that that’s not how the world works enough
