Love Hurts Trailer #1 starring Oscar winner Ke Huy Quan vs Marshawn Lynch

Obviously inspired by Ke Huy Quan's numerous personas in Everything Everywhere All at Once, this appears to be the perfect vehicle for him to have a starring role. He could never carry a movie just being a nice guy character. So it looks like they constructed the right story to take advantage of his newly-revived visibility.

Looks like Marshawn actually has a more meaty role than his other recent movie appearances, although the trailer may be showing all of his scenes for all we know. Although it looks like he has some funny lines, I don't think I want to see him as a bad-guy character. Maybe he'll turn out to be a good guy as the movie progresses.

Saw this last night. Overall disappointing. The performances were good, the fight scenes were pretty good, but the writing was really bad. The story happens around Valentines Day, and there are several supposed romantic side-stories going on. Ariana DeBose was totally miscast as Ke Huy Quan's romantic interest. No one is going to believe she's interested in this old small Asian guy. Maybe she was intrigued by his previous ruthless enforcer persona, but they never showed it. The story was just not convincing--all the effort went into the fight scenes. And the only time I laughed was a couple of moments with Marshawn. The advertising says it's from the producers of Nobody. Nobody was much better.

Definitely a wait-for-streaming movie.

I was expecting to hear a Nazareth tune in the trailer. Oh well.

This was terrible. I knew it wasn’t gonna be great, but the wife wanted to see a movie and she picked this one.

I personally wouldn't dismiss the pairing as unbelievable but statistically, black women with asian men is 0.2%, the rarest of all interracial combinations.
