Not a rom-com just a bad story sold as romance

Honestly me giving this story a 2 star is a bit of an overstatement of how I feel about the movie. The only reason is because of the cast and the acting. I can't deny that the cast is great and their acting is just as great. HOWEVER, that is all. I really just watched it because a lot of actors I like are in it and the trailer looked cute.

The trailer is very misleading. It sells itself as a funny rom-com of a couple having light-hearted fights but, in reality, the things they fought over are verrry real and honestly disgusting. They tried to sell it as if both people in the relationship have done something wrong when, in reality, the man mainly did all the wrong. How is the wife at fault for telling her husband to do housework and share responsibilities? They made her look like an over bearing witch. On top of that, it became an excuse for him cheating and being an all around selfish asshole. That's not a light issue. It became increasingly frustrating when he got mad at her for allegedly cheating when he was the one doing the cheating. They tried to make it look like it was funny but it wasn't, it just left a sour taste in my mouth. Just a word of advice for anyone who has a partner like him: RUN. People like that don't change and take advantage of those around them. His friends were also terrible and if that isn't telling, I don't know what is.

They ended by "resolving" their issues and getting back together. If you could call it "resolved". In reality, she got slack for something she didn't deserve to get slack for and he didn't even properly apologize. I truly wish it ended with her leaving him. It's not like the movie was that romantic anyways. At the end of the day, the husband didn't deserve his wife and the movie was neither romantic nor funny. I really wanted something to wind me down after exams and well...this just made me mad and jaded about marriage. I hope anyone reading this (including myself) doesn't end up with such a partner.
