My Favorite Girlfriend

Poorly scripted and awkwardly portrayed/acted.

I thought the mental illness part was underplayed, and felt like their was a lot of insensitivity to DID. The makeup on the lead actor was a bit heavy, more like stage makeup than film makeup. Lead actor was a bit stiff at times, and the way other characters (his boss) kept picking on his character was a bit much. There were some good performances by most of the supporting cast. I feel like if there had been more (and more appropriate) focus on the mental health struggles of the two leads, this could have been a much better movie.

I feel like I'm the Twilight Zone with this movie. I probably would've enjoyed the plot more had it not been for the subpar acting.

The acting was absolutely terrible, the way they used their phones was clearly fake. When he went to see Silk perform with her band, the "rock" song sucked absolute ass. I don't think they researched anything about how OCD or MPD impacts your day to day life. I got maybe 30 minutes into the movie before I had to call it quits.

I'm a bit of a psychology nerd, so I decided to give this a shot. A bit campy and cheesy, yes. But surprisingly a great take on the psychological theories of 'Internal Family Systems' and 'Personality Fragmentation' using the RomCom format, and terms the average person recognizes like multiple personalities, even though its existence is hotly debated. Found it to be a welcome break from all the horror and thriller movies constantly villanizing people with mental illness. Highly recommend the book 'No Bad Parts by Dr. Richard C. Schwartz' to anyone who enjoyed this. If they actually do the sequel, I really hope they introduce an IFS therapist character, instead of the hypnotherapist guy, and really explore all the different personality fragments, and get to the source of the trauma, which led to her fragmentation. Would be fun to really see her get better and become a more functional and integrated person.

Light hearted yet deep, fully entertaining I am a fan of this director (and writer of this film), Amanda Raymond, as she always manages to pull at the heartstrings in a fun and entertaining way. My Favorite Girlfriend did just this. Female lead, Bonnie Piesse, pulled off this role phenomenally (at first, the persona she was playing made it seem like she was over-acting, but hang in there, it works for the story). Great movie! Definitely worth the price of admission so to speak!

I felt like I was watching a TV show that runs in the background of another TV show
