Curious if anyone's seen or intends to seen it. Very much the kind of movie that would never be on my radar, except I read the webcomic it's adapted from years ago and was kind of reduced to jibbering shock when I learned this movie was coming out - especially because the comic was so obviously angling for a movie adaptation that it had "movie" in the URL for it - that I have a pretty huge amount of curiosity about it. Even if I do doubt that the movie includes the part where for no apparent reason they go have adventures in Africa. Might this evening drop the $5 on signing back up to Peacock to see it.
Yes I'm willing to drop the money on this but not the Royal Rumble. The times we live in, huh?

I watched it on Saturday night with my wife after we had enjoyed a few cocktails, it's exactly what you'd expect it to be. It was silly, I'm glad I didn't spend money on it. I was totally gobsmacked when I found out it was based on a graphic novel.

Saw it yesterday. It’s… a romcom. That’s really all I can say about it. Only thing it really does to set itself apart from any other romcom is that every now and then the screen will turn into like a livestream filter with chat boxes and emojis popping up all over to demonstrate how Lopez’s character is always being filmed and talked about. It got annoying after a while.
And there was definitely nothing to do with Africa, or any other country other than Lopez mentioning what foreign cities she would be performing at.
That said, it wasn’t terrible, just predictable. And you probably need to like Jennifer Lopez as a singer because she sings quite a few times throughout.
