'Overrated' is an understatement

Rating: 4/10 (1 August 2016)

According to the average of more than forty thousand people on IMDb this movie got the rating 7.6? And for what? First, it's pathetic and that's not a quality. It plays cheap on peoples' emotions and that's not an artistic value or any value at all. I'm not the kind of person that likes only those movies which are artistic or make you think, I don't mind amusing cheap movies sometimes as well - but what is amusing about this one?
To me, this movie is like a perverted twist (but not in a good way) on Hollywood-style fairy tales and that's nothing new for the movie industry - making you feel good on the account of an unworthy but good spirited girl who in need of good money becomes a cheer-up doll for a prince in the castle who lived through tragedy, trying to give him reasons to live while being payed for it (because - why shouldn't that make him feel good about himself to be in a situation that parents have to buy him female companionship). And since the ending can not be too sad and 'god forbid' any different from all the rest of the Hollywood soapies at least someone has to have a gain at the end of the movie. Since it was too unrealistic for the writer himself that the guy in such a bad state of the body could still have a good spirit driving him forward to survive he still had to make at least somebody happy at the ending and so we get a princess out of the ashes. Congratulations on keeping your stereotypes up to date, successful and popular in the modern world, Hollywood.
