PART 1 FULL REVIEW WITH SPOILERS COLLEGE ARC

OMG! Oh My Girl is probably one of the stupidest movies I have ever watched, periodt. It starts off as a cutesy college romance flick with the usual tropes such as unrequited love, but they actually like each other secretly, if it makes sense. The movie should have ended when Guy(MML) graduated and had apparently moved on from June(FML).

Instead, the next hour or so shows us the most abhorrent love story of this generation. There still was no romantic development between the two and June is still with her boyfriend from the first arc named Pete(SML). Pete’s a great guy, and another good thing this movie has blessed us is Tah and Lex’s relationship.

COLLEGE ARC

Guy. What a dumb fucking character. He is the usual “Oh I was friendzoned even though me and June are perfect for each other” but won’t make a fucking move or even one small hint that he actually likes June. Like, bro?? He victimizes himself stating that God hates him since the moments are perfect but he still isn’t with June. Like, HE HAD SO MANY CHANCES TO TELL HER HOW HE FELT??! Also, when they were in college, he dated this girl named Patty, and when Phing and June broke up(for the nth time because Phing is a jealous dumbfuck, ugh another irredeemable character), he breaks up with Patty IN PUBLIC, only to see Phing and June get together a few seconds later? The writing is so stupid oh my fucking god I swear.

After that dumb scene, he goes to a bar and decides to drink himself to death and meets this girl at a bar on the way to the smoking area so he bums a cigarette off of the bartender to hit on this girl but then she states that she just wanted to fart?? Kinda funny but wow, was Guy just useless. Lo and behold, June is in the smoking area too! And they have an actual cute moment and shit but GUY DOES NOT DO SHIT. LIKE LITERALLY, JUNE IS NOW SINGLE BRO, MAN THE FUCK UP??!!!!!

INSTEAD, He dares her to get a guys phone number in front of him as a bet, which is the dumbest fucking thing you want your crush to do just when she became single. ??Fortunately?? The guy did not give her the phone number so Guy was 500 baht richer, amirite? Stupid fucking writing I swear to god. ANYWAY, He decides to leave for some reason since he was jelly and a dick for some reason and it rained and he didnt leave and Tah arrived and left and shit. What the actual fuck. Anyway, the bar closes, oh wait, the guy that June was asking the number of was a bandmate of Pete(SML), so, in hindsight, dumb fucking move Guy.

So, the bar closes, the place is flooded, they have this whole cute but disgustingly unsanitary barefoot walk in the flood and a dead rat touches Guy’s foot and just cute shit happens ya know? LIKE A NORMAL FUCKING COLLEGE ROM-COM! HERE’S THE CLICKER THOUGH!!!!! AFTER THAT, June FINALLY meets Pete and the next scene, they are dating??

Like wtf? HELLOOOO??CONTEXT??Anyway, they get together and guy is all sobby and sad and shit cuz he’s a sad fucking boi amirite, and then there was this graduation which was cool, i liked it. But that was it. He graduates, brings the disgusting slipper June picked up off of the shitty flood, and this is where I wanted the movie to end. A bittersweet rom com.

If you thought I was done, I have only just begun.

UGH

So, spoiler alert, no kiss, on the lips. Ugh. No final kiss, nothin.

Now for my real review:

Ayef is an aspiring animator, but unfortunately they drop the ball in showcasing what she is capable of other than the thesis, her styling, it lacks the small details that make it a perfect whole. Other than that, pretty well written and honestly, acted. Ayef's actress, 9/10 for acting. Honestly.

Manny. Oh boy, we don't know much about him except for these few facts: He doesnt like his dad, likes his mum, but the mum is shit, also the dad, he has siblings, he has a plant shop, you know, that's a lot of detail. Nvm. I dont know where I was I going with that. Honestly, Manny is a king. 10/10

The story as a whole, had a few weird pacings like the scene where Terry and Filemino (Ayef's parent's) go hard at each other, so Ayef runs away from that very heavy scene and suddenly, romantic music plays and lo and behold, Mr. Manny there to save the day. But yes, I approve of this movie, You might think that the rating is low, but that is a high rating for a typical rom com.

The side character's do not contribute much other than to give comic relief, or emotional pain and anger. But they're okay written, so it's fine.

That's all.
