Heart Eyes
Warning: This article contains SPOILERS for Heart Eyes!
However,Heart Eyessets itself apart from other films in a few ways.
Firstly, the Olivia Holt-led horror rom-com is much more bloody and gruesome than many other options.
This is thanks to the story including an epic slasher villain.
She says this:
Ally, listen to me.
You deserve to be happy.

You deserve to have someone love you for the beautiful, neurotic mess that you are.
I mean you’re free to be so clueless sometimes.
Its one of the 10 things I hate about you, honestly.
Some kind of wonderful, crazy, stupid love, actually.
Go get that beautiful melanin man.
This speech inHeart Eyesis one of the movies funniest and most self-aware moments.
It comes across as a love letter to the rom-com genre.
Only two of the films My Best Friends WeddingandLove, Actually were referenced separately from Monicas speech inHeart Eyes.
However, the scene inHeart Eyesdiverges from the source material when they get hit by a thunderstorm.
Like Holly Golightly, Ally seems unwilling to belong to anyone, leaning into self-sufficiency.
By the end, they love each other enough to kiss while driving off a cliff together.
TheHeart Eyescharacter even watches it when she gets home from the massacre.
Sam goes to the airport to tell Joanna how he feels, and they end up kissing.
Heart Eyesalso uses this trope, albeit with a twist.
Ally takes a cab to the airport to stop Jay from leaving and profess her feelings.
However, she receives a call revealing that Jay never made it to the airport.
