Be Somebody (2016)
1/10
would've thought that it was a Starstruck parody bc of how stupid it is.

For starters, i love watching cringey predictable rom coms just to mock them with my friends, so i'm very used to seeing bad storylines and cliches. BUT THIS.. this just goes way beyond. Ok so if ur reading this then u probably read the other reviews saying that the plot was technically non-existent, it was too predictable and unoriginal, and the acting doesnt even help. But i just have a little something to add to this list. I literally kept on fast forwarding the entire movie because of how poorly made the scenes were, they were way too boring like i actually couldnt get myself to continue an entire scene without zoning out. They have this entire "artsy, edgy, and deep" vibe going on which i get, cuz there are literally 1 million other movies that did this before, but the way this movie executed it made it look like they were being awful on purpose, as if its a goddamn parody or something. There was a scene where they literally spent an entire 3 minutes (the length of a freaking song) just walking in slow motion and not talking at all, hoping it would add a bit of "deep". Needless to say, they failed. They were trying so hard to deliver this message that they literally stretched out most of the scenes for too long that no one can even listen to what they're saying anymore and just hope they move on to the next scene. Overall, this was officially the worst way I've ever wasted my time.
