What's with people no longer allowing others to dislike popular movies?
So, to be entirely honest, I did NOT like Obsession (2026). I found it very derivative and predictable, and I feel like it should have been one of those straight to VOD flicks rather than a big release, and it's been making WAAAAAY too much money.
I am Gen Z, AKA the generation this movie was supposedly made for. I still did not like it. And yet, every time I go online and say I don't like it, I get hit with TONS of comments telling me I didn't get the film, or that I am talking out of my ass, and aggressively defending it. I'm sorry, but I don't care about the fact this was made by some YouTuber (because yes, as much as he can insist he isn't one, the director Is a YouTuber), and you want your underdog story, but this just isn't a good movie.
Why is that? Why am I seemingly not allowed to say I didn't like it? As a Gen Z woman, I feel like I should be able to do so, considering it's a movie aimed at people like me. And does anyone else dislike this movie? I would love people that I can talk to about this...
