After an out-of-court settlement regarding Blake Lively's involvement, the film It Ends with Us premieres to a 55% critic rating on Rotten Tomatoes but an 87% audience score. The adaptation of Colleen Hoover's novel explores themes of trauma and resilience through the story of Lily Bloom, whose relationship with a neurosurgeon is challenged by her past.
The film It Ends with Us, starring Blake Lively , was finally settled out of court last May 4. Following its release, the movie garnered an approval rating of 55% on Rotten Tomatoes , alongside a stronger 87% audience score on Popcornmeter.
Directed by Justin Baldoni from a screenplay by Christy Hall, the adaptation is based on Colleen Hoover's bestselling 2016 novel of the same name.

Executive producers include Baldoni, Lively, Hoover, Steve Sarowitz, Andrew Calof, and Andrea Ajemian, with Alex Saks, Jamey Heath, and Hall serving as producers.
The official synopsis describes the story of Lily Bloom, a woman overcoming a traumatic childhood to begin anew in Boston and pursue her dream of opening a business. A chance encounter with neurosurgeon Ryle Kincaid ignites a passionate romance, but Lily soon notices behaviors in Ryle that echo her parents' troubled relationship. The reappearance of her first love, Atlas Corrigan, further complicates her life, forcing Lily to rely on her own strength to make an impossible decision about her future.

Matyas argued they lived as a married couple and that property ownership was solely in Liu's name due to family pressure regarding his sexuality. However, the judge found the relationship was not openly presented as a marriage, a key requirement under the 1975 Inheritance Act, and therefore Matyas had no legal standing to claim.
