You know what the most depressing thing about this movie is? The hostess.
Â
Keanu makes reservations with her for two years in the future, and two years later, she apparently hasn't seen any career mobility.
Â
Â
But her hair, makeup and wardrobe have all improved, so presumably she's at least gotten some good raises? Or taken some good bribes to give away tables?
Â
I'm imagining the Wyler Reservation has become A Thing among the Il Mare staff - speculating about it, telling jokes about it, getting Hostess to tell the tale of the Weirdo Booking A Table Two Years Ahead, etc.

This is a bad movie in the BEST way. Like, every other scene I was like, "Wait, did I really just see that?! Was that really a thing that happened?"
-
I was screaming "IT'S THE 2000S!!! GOOGLE!!!!" at my screen the entire time. For some reason I went into this thinking Keanu was, like, in the 1940s. TWO YEARS???
Â
But. I had a June-ish theory. Popped into my mind when Kate (wearing an ugly green headscarf) and her boring mother were having a boring talk about love over a boring lunch. Mom said something about before I met your father I loved a boy and we wrote letters. What happened? "Well I had to get to where I could have you" or some such horsehockey.
Â
Just for half a second I thought "OMG bet Mom was in love with Christopher Plummer. Sandy is Keanu's sister."

I also thought it was the Denzel/John Goodman "dagnabbit we paid for a Rolling Stones song & we're gonna use it at every possible turn" movie. It's not quite crazy enough for HGTGM, maybe, but it has some wacky charm...

Also, I have never heard of either the 2016 movie nor the worldwide bestselling novel, This bodes very very ill.
