TGIF: Movie of the week

For me, looking for movies to chill on Netflix can be a daunting task. I am not quite sure how the algorithm works but I found this movie and it was a good watch. The storyline is not new but sometimes you just want to relax with a feel-good movie and "How to Get Over a Breakup" was that for me. 

The movie is set in the city of Lima, Peru and it's about a young lady known as Maria Fe whose boyfriend breaks up with her over the phone, the movie reflects the 5 stages of grief (denial, anger, negotiation, depression, and acceptance) and how she is able to move on with the help of her three friends. 

My favorite thing about the movie was the beautiful city, I feel like being in a city with so many vibrant colors will make me constantly happy. 

Maria's house design was equally beautiful, I fell in love with the aesthetics. The only thing I was unsure about was the bathtub in the middle because wiping water spills on the floor makes me cringe, that's why we use a shower curtain, a lady has no energy to be cleaning. Matias did come back to Maria but it felt awkward to me especially because the movie gave no reason why he broke up with her and just felt entitled to walk back into her life.

Like most people in break-ups, Maria Fe did move on. She quits her job in advertising and becomes an author.

Did you watch any new movie on Netflix recently? kindly share as I am constantly looking for new not horror movies to watch. Fridays will be new things review day, hopefully, I can keep up.

Much Love,
