So I watched What's Your Number? a movie whose objective quality I am completely unqualified to judge,
given that it had many things I love: Chris Evans, a heroine with beyond adorable sleepwear, the boy falling in love first, girl beating boy at a typically masculine-game (seriously, the playing horse in the Garden scene was my fav). That said, the ending climax was terrible. Ugh, stupid cliche chase/crashing a fancy party scene. The end belonged in that rom-com mockery in Friends With Benefits

I stopped watching that movie 15 minutes in. I've never done that with a movie ever. Well. Except for The Ugly Truth. Lol.

Might have been a good call? I greatly enjoyed it, but, you know, storytelling kinks + chris evans' everything, so.

I hated so much of what that movie chose to be. Like, the premise itself was one of the most offensive and problematic premises I've encountered in a romcom in recent years. Slut-shaming as a jump off point! GOD AREN'T WE AS A SOCIETY PASSED THIS? But Chris Evans was naked. And also his usual charming self. And he had nice chemistry with Anna Faris. I too love the boy falling in love first! I just wish it wasn't wrapped in such a gross package.

Yeah, the fact that she cared what this stupid article said was pretty lame. I wish the movie had emphasized the idea that actual adults are not going to care about this number instead of having her sister and co all agree she had slept with too many men. (As if. She's kind of my hero for that.)

You had me at Chris Evans.

You have good taste.
