I'm proud of Issa's come up but her acting is dry as hell.
"I'm afraid...to love you." I crack up every time I hear that line in the trailer.

I'm still going to see it.
Me too! That line right there and her whining about her mom in the trailer why I'm not interested like what else is going on in the movie?

Folks want movies that aren't the same struggle films, slave films, etc but also don't want films that AREN'T those struggle films.

What do y'all want?

I want to support but I have never been a huge fan or romantic movies. The ones I do enjoy I usually catch them by accident or force. This one will probably be no different.

Lmao I feel the same exact way. I’m still going to see it, but I wish they would stop playing the trailers so often especially on YouTube. I have to mute it everytime it pops up.

Nope, I'll pass

I like a rom-com every now and then but I generally don't do romantic movies, I've never even seen The Notebook

- Issa isn't a good actress, especially for a box office film
- They look kinda odd together and lack chemistry on screen imo (could be due to Issa again)
- The plot looks hella boring

Glad to see Black love on film, and I love romantic movies, but...their chemistry is so cringe and off. Issa is my girl, but her acting is so flat.

Also w/ a romantic movie, I gotta get into the guy, and Lakeith just doesn't make my lady parts clap. He looks like the Geico gecko and he says weird sh!t in interviews. I'll check this when it comes to streaming tho.

I was impressed with Lakeith Stanfield in “Someone Great” and felt like he elevated an otherwise trite story. Unfortunately, while I love every bit of her success, Issa is not a leading actress. I am interested in every character in the trailer except hers and the chemistry is way off. I’m sure Lakeith will make it somewhat convincing but I fear her role should’ve gone to a more capable actress.

But I will definitely support the film. We need a break from violence and struggle love.
