Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck in Gigli
Romantic movies are designed to tug at the viewer's heartstrings, make them swoon, and leave them with a sense of hope about the possibility of love. This is admittedly a tricky feat to pull off well, but some romances fail so abysmally that no defense can be mounted. Whether it's due to a poorly written script, lack of chemistry between the leads, or unrealistic storylines, they leave viewers bewildered and frustrated rather than charmed.
Everything here is paper thin, and it builds up to an abrupt and unsatisfying conclusion. It comes across as awkward rather than emotional. For example, there are plenty of cliché rom-com sequences, like one where Gilcrest and Ng are trying on hats at a market. Scenes like this verge on self-parody. Other than the decent soundtrack, there's little reason to watch this dud.Not available

Miley Cyrus stars in this coming-of-age rom-com as Lola, a high school student navigating relationships, friendships, and family drama. Things get complicated after her boyfriend breaks up with her, but her friend Kyle confesses his love for her.
The movie begins its downfall when Whitman shifts from mysterious to outright obnoxious, leading to a second half filled with one painfully unfunny scene after another. The lack of humor is made worse by a nonsensical plot. Unsurprisingly, the movie was panned by critics and bombed at the box office. It's one of the very worst projects directed by Nick Castle, who played Michael Myers in the original Halloween .
Where to begin? The storyline is predictable to the point of being unintentionally funny, the characters are stock figures , and the acting is relentlessly subpar. There are music videos with more plot. The only entertaining moments come when Usher dances, but even these are few and far between. Consequently, In the Mix feels tepid and overlong, despite clocking at at a lean 95 minutes.
