🧟‍♂️ Lisa Frankenstein (2024)

“They say time heals all wounds. But that’s a lie, time is the wound. Takes you further and further away from that place when you were happy. Makes those good smells go away.”

It’s spooky season so of course I had to add a wonderfully spooky rom-com to the catalog! Lisa Frankenstein, starring Kathryn Newton and Cole Sprouse is now a part of the RCC. Link in bio!

📺 Blast from the Past (1999)

Review Excerpt: I’ve never seen this romantic comedy before, although I certainly remember its release in 1999. I didn’t know much about it beyond its very basic premise. And the premise is ridiculous, but that’s not a problem. I love ridiculous rom-com premises when they’re executed well. The reason Blast from the Past works is because of Brendan Fraser. His earnest portrayal of Adam makes the character charming, rather than obnoxious. We root for Adam, whether he ends up with Eve or not.

For me, the weak link was actually Silverstone. She and Fraser didn’t have much chemistry on-screen, and to be completely honest, I didn’t think she was particularly good in the role. It hurts the romantic side of the film, and I was more entertained by Adam’s foray into the modern world of the 1990s. And with such a silly premise, it’s not as funny as it could be. I understand it leans toward being a satirical take on society, but that particular theme is lost once Adam emerges from the fallout shelter, triggering a tonal shift. Maybe that was the point? But it didn’t work much for me.

🎿 The Other Zoey (2023)

“Mm, the grand gesture where the protagonist professes their love in public. It just perpetuates unrealistic romantic ideals.”

“I love that you get cold when it’s 71 degrees

“I love that you get cold when it’s 71 degrees out. I love that it takes you an hour and a half to order a sandwich. I love that you get a little crinkle above your nose when you’re looking at me like I’m nuts. I love that after I spend the day with you, I can still smell your perfume on my clothes. And I love that you are the last person I want to talk to before I go to sleep at night. And it’s not because I’m lonely, and it’s not because it’s New Year’s Eve. I came here tonight because when you realize you want to spend the rest of your life with somebody, you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible.”

35 years of When Harry Met Sally! One of the genre’s best.

🎿 The Other Zoey (2023)

Review Excerpt: Just like While You Were Sleeping, the premise of The Other Zoey is pretty implausible. A woman pretending to be someone she’s not will eventually be caught or found out, and Zoey is supposedly a highly intelligent young woman, so obviously she is aware of this, but her attraction to Miles is strong enough for her to ignore the insanity of her own actions. There are also a lot of holes in this movie, common sense that is conveniently ignored, but the movie is so charming that it’s easy to overlook its flaws.

🔫 Hit Man (2024)

Review Excerpt: I absolutely adored Richard Linklater’s Before trilogy, and I see some shades of the creative partnership he shared with Julie Delpy and Ethan Hawke in the screenplay he wrote with Powell. The premise is a bit wild, but the characters are still engaging enough to believe that even the most implausible aspects of the movie are… well… plausible. There’s a lot more going on beneath the surface here, and I think Linklater and Powell cleverly disguised the movie’s message of morality and the constructs of one’s self in the wrappings of a sexy, dark rom-com.

🧳 Austenland (2013)

Review Excerpt: My main problem with Austenland is that I’m not sure it knew precisely what it wanted to be. Did it want to make fun of the Austen-inspired romances? I could see the satire, especially with how obsessive certain fandoms become of their literary heroes. But at the same time, it seems to dive headfirst into everything it’s criticizing in the first place. Then again, I may be overthinking the movie as a whole, and ultimately, all it really wanted was to become a guilty pleasure to watch on a rainy afternoon. In that case, Austenland succeeds.
