Thrilling Ride
Take a long look at the poster. What do you think the movie will be about? A girl escaping a shark? You got that right. The entire movie is basically based on that. But wait, it's still NOT boring!
Blake Lively plays the only major character in the movie, and yet you do not get bored of watching only one character and don't even realize how less the dialogues are. Now, you won't want to watch this movie more than once, but that single watch will prove to be shockingly enjoyable. This could be because you don't expect this movie to be too exciting for this obvious story, but it keeps you on the edge of the seat always. You start praying for Blake Lively's survival, and find yourself devising plans for her escape. It's certainly a roller coaster ride, quite thrilling. The movie has also been shot really well. I, though, won't be able to watch this same movie a second time.

GRAND.
If you haven't watched this movie yet, the only excuse you're allowed to have is that you don't watch movies from the Marvel Cinematic universe, and hence won't understand this movie. This is true, but why aren't you watching movies from this majestic mind-blowing universe?
This movie is just grand. Following the events of Civil War, all our heroes appear in one grand movie to fight against the mighty Thanos, who plans on taking over the universe using the infinity stones, and conducts a scavenger hunt for the stones across planets. And let me tell you, Thanos certainly wins the 'Best Villain Ever' award. It's a sin to give out spoilers for this movie, so I'll let you agree with me yourself on watching the end of this movie.
It's an absolute delight to watch all the superheroes across different movies gang up with each other, especially the pairing of Iron Man and Doctor Strange, with Spider-Man and Star Lord tagging along. You keep getting rushes of excitement every time a new character is spoken about, or shows the others what their powers are, and you almost feel proud.
This movie gets and A+ in action, direction, visual effects, acting, and A+++++ in dialogues. Every single line is so quirky and funny and smart, you'll find yourself watching this movie again and again to keep discovering new things.
I know of many people who cried at the end of this movie. Not because the end is OH MY GOD, although it totally is, but because they need mopre of it right now, but have to wait for May'19 for part two.

For Them Fans of Chick Flicks Only
After the huge amount of immediate conversation that The Kissing Booth arose, you will be wondering whether to give it a shot or not. I always keep one thing in mind : the better the movie is, the lesser noise it makes. I'm not saying that this isn't a nice movie, all I'm saying is that it's lame.
Elle and Lee are inseparable best friends, who, obviously, have been so since birth. hey have a set of rules they have abide by in their friendship, which they made back when they were kids, and hence half of them do not even make sense. In every close friendship, though, you do not need a an express rule to forbid the other from dating your immediate family member, it's a given. However, Elle finds herself falling for Noah, Lee's elder brother, bit by bit.
Lee and Elle set up a kissing booth at their school fair, and when Elle puts on the blindfold and stands at the booth, the hearth throb of the school Noah gives his brother's best friend her first kiss ever. Who he has known all his life and protects from bullies. Who he looks at, or at least used to, as a little sister. Who he passionately kisses even though he is aware of the rule, or even the general customs of society.
And there begins their forbidden love, which they hide from Lee and fight for the rest of the movie. Overall, it is a pretty cute movie, and you get very involved in the story and in the great chemistry between Elle and Noah (the fact that the actors are together in real life too certainly helped). Yet, parts where they take Lee from granted, or when lee acts very lame, or other such things about the movie will annoy you.

No. Just... No.
Will and Eden broke off their marriage after the tragic event of their son dying and them facing many psychological problems in dealing with it. Now, after two years of no contact, Eden and her new husband David come back from their 'communion', but more rightly called a cult, in Mexico, with two of their friends, and host a dinner party. They invite all their old friends, including Will, who haven't even heard from them in all these years, in order to reconnect. And believe me, this isn't a dinner party I would like to attend.
Will knows from the beginning of the evening that something is wrong, but cannot quite place his finger on it. And it's no big thing even recognizing that something is utterly wrong. You're extremely uneasy throughout the movie, because the behavior of the people is just way too awkward to take in. Eden and David try acting very spiritual and telling others how they're so happy now, but instead they come off as mysterious and just plain irritating, with them trying to be hospitable but certainly no one feels comfortable. Especially Will, who snoops around their belongings and even goes through their things on their laptop to look for something without knowing what he's really after. Their beliefs don't even make sense, nor are explained properly. And till the last 20 minutes of the movie, it's still really just a dinner party with something wrong waiting to happen, the whole thing honestly making me uncomfortable. The worst part of it was the game they play, their version of 'never have I ever', called 'I want'. It leads to some extremely weird confessions and sexual advances, and one guest even leaves at that point. Honestly, I don't know how the others didn't leave.
Psychological thrillers are supposed to send you into a thinking phase, make you want to find out more about the movie. I'm always excited to find out about hidden meanings and murders don't really disturb me. This movie, I just wanted to get done with. I only got through to find out what's actually wrong.

Cute and Worth a Shot
Lucy is a hard-working and smart lawyer, who works for the common good of the society. However, she ends up working for one of the people she despises, George Wade, a millionaire real estate developer, as his chief counsel. And obviously, they end up falling in love.
Now, I'm not going to mark that last part as a spoiler, because it's that obvious. You know from the minute that Lucy walks up to George that these two very different people are going to fall for each other. So, I guess, you're here to witnesses the hows and whys.
So you watch Lucy working very hard and George taking her advice on not only legal matters, but also what mattress to purchase. However, this movie does not show you the journey, from a professional relationship to prime adviser, which is why you don't even get to participate in their chemistry, it's like you're just informed that there is some.
The story is still pretty cute and you get to see them being dependent upon each other, even though it's not into details. You get excited to listen in on their conversations and always want to know more, even though individually, Lucy is an annoying workaholic and George is a playboy, together they form quite a couple.
For #RomCom lovers, this movie is certainly worth one watch.
