My Favorite Girlfriend (2022)
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME
The only thing separating this film from other irreparably horrendous films is that the cinematography is decent. But that's where this movie's good parts end.
I don't know what this movie was trying to accomplish. It's narrated by the main character's best friend, but that friend is not that central to the plot. Clearly, this is a romance but the movie doesn't set up the characters as likeable or relatable, and their romance feels forced. Like the only reason these characters are together is because that is what is supposed to happen. They don't have any chemistry, and it feels like our main character is just being carted from scene to scene with no real direction. His girlfriend and her many (literal) personalities don't have any connection or bond to her male counterpart so every scene with them in it is a weird dance that doesn't leave me feeling like there's any connection there.
Plus he doesn't respect her boundaries or wishes and continues trying to interact with her when she repeatedly tells him to leave her alone after she breaks up with him. Which she does because he doesn't respect her boundaries and tries to force her to realize she has multiple personalities.
This is without even mentioning that these alternate personalities are all boring stereotypes and the way they're presented is the jazzed up, fake internet version of Dissociative Identity Disorder. It's beyond bad and I would not recommend this to anyone. It's not even so bad it's funny. It's just bad.
