Critics Question Portrayal in It Ends With Us Film
News summary

The film adaptation of Colleen Hoover's bestselling novel 'It Ends With Us' has sparked intense debate around its portrayal of domestic abuse and potential on-set tensions among cast members. Directed by Justin Baldoni and starring Blake Lively, the film follows Lily Bloom, whose romance with neurosurgeon Ryle mirrors the abusive cycle of her childhood. Critics argue that while the film has moments of charm, it often downplays the serious themes of the story, presenting it with a romantic lens rather than a gritty exploration of trauma. Speculation about tensions between Lively and Baldoni has emerged, with both actors promoting the film differently, creating confusion about its intended message. Additionally, Hoover faced backlash for a proposed coloring book based on the novel, leading to its cancellation. With the film now in theaters, viewers are cautioned that while it attempts to address domestic violence, it may not fully meet the expectations set by the book's graphic depictions.
