      In terms of Tom Hanks movies where Hanks LACKED chemistry with his leading ladies, I’d pick “Every Time We Say Goodbye” (with Cristina Marsillach), “Turner & Hooch” (with Mare Winningham), and “The Bonfire of the Vanities” (with Melanie Griffith).
      Tom Hanks had better chemistry with the DOG (Hooch) than with a human woman!
      SERIOUSLY!

    I totally disagree about Music and Lyrics. I thought Drew and Hugh's chemistry was outstanding and surprisingly authentic / believable despite the characters' age difference. It's one of my favorite movies, in part, BECAUSE the actors manage to sell me on their romance, despite the odds. The weird scenario somehow makes it more like real life to me than most romcoms. I've seen a lot of inexplicable, odd ball love matches, IRL. 🤷‍♀️

    The only one I really disagree with is Chris Pratt and Bryce Dallas Howard in Jurassic World. Yes, they argue and fight through much of the first movie, but I think it makes sense that their ideas and feelings about each other change when they are fighting for their lives. They also seem to get along really well in real life, so I think that their friendship helped their onscreen chemistry.

    Hugh Grant was a dick to all of his American co-stars - Barrymore, Julia Roberts, Sandra Bullock, Sarah Jessica Parker etc. - and it's very hard to portray chemistry with someone who treats you like dirt; therefore the incredible performance of Julia Roberts in Notting Hill requires a whole lot of praise.
    Vince Vaughn is sexist and disrespectful: all of his attempts at romcoms failed miserably.
    Owen Wilson is as passionate as a dead fish, no one could pretend to be head over hills for him.
    And many others - like Angelina Jolie, Madonna or Gerard Butler - are simply awful actors, who cannot portray emotions even while being paid for it.
    Some couples are so forced that one look at them takes away any curiosity about the movie.

And while The Dark Knight is an astounding movie to say the least, it's mostly Heath Ledger as the Joker who steals the show and helps the story progress so well. He even does a good thing by killing Rachel. Maybe the future Batman movies can improve upon Batman's character and female characters, like Reeves started to do?

Do I agree that these couples are somewhat dysfunctional and probably wouldn't last in the long run? Yes. However, I think the actors did a good job portraying the relationships and characters that they were tasked. Both couples are kind of the enemies to lovers type. Basically, they are the type of couples who annoy the crap out of each other and yet still feel some kind of pull towards each other. I think most people have seen plenty of examples of these types of couples who make others scratch their head in confusion as to how or why they got together, but as far as convincing the audience of that dynamic, I think both pairs of actors did a good job.

      You’re leaving out some important details. Yes, she wrote the first 50 Shades movie. But she’s also written every single Venom movie. And writing and directing are pretty different. I’m sure it’ll be fine.

    Not a mention of the Astronauts wife starring Johnny Depp and Charlize Theron , horrible chemistry.

    SJP is Carrie Bradshaw - once upon a time she had depth but Sex and the City ruined that. She will always be Carrie Bradshaw! She has no chemistry with other actors because of the world’s obsession with Sex and the City.

      Or just stick to dancing….that is how she started her career and imo she should have not branched out from that because she sucks at everything else!!

    The Madonna movie chemistry was the worst. It was so cringe-worthy. And, the only movie where I think Hugh Grant had some chemistry was with Emma Thompson in Sense and Sensibility. That was because she was such a strong actress that lead him along in a good part. The same with Julia Roberts in Nottinghill. He is a great looking guy with boyish charm, but he mostly just stands around being attractive and vulnerable and the female lead has to do most of the work to make the relationship believable.
