If As If was a meal, it'd be unsalted rice with extra ego.

Laughed twice during As If. Once was a sneeze.

[Spoilers] Can we discuss that absolutely baffling ending in As If?

Honestly, As If would be a tight 95-minute movie. Instead we got a bloated runtime padded with B-roll and lingering shots that add nothing.

Unpopular opinion: As If is the most overrated film of the decade

Look, I wanted to love As If. The trailer had me hyped. But sitting through the second hour felt like a homework assignment. The dialogue is exposition stacked on exposition and the score keeps telling me how to feel.

Hot Take: As If's third act ruined what could have been a masterpiece

Rewatched As If last night and noticed even more plot holes than the first time. The motivations don't track at all once you stop and think about act two.

Why does no one talk about how mid the writing in As If actually is?

Everyone praising the As If performances must have watched a different cut. The lead is sleepwalking through this and the supporting cast can't save it.
