Would you agree the key ingredient In a romantic movie it's chemistry?


I'd say yes



You have a couple with a great chemistry and you have an incredibly successful chick flick.
It doesn't matter if its cheesy, a little implausible or sometimes kind of wrong but a main couple with great chemistry never fails.

Could you give us a few example, first of all of couples who did NOT have the chemistry.

Second, couples with chemistry who surmounted other deficiency in a movie.

who didn't have chemistry Amanda Seyfried and the guy who played her love interest in letters to Juliet or Rachel McAdams and Eric Bana in the time Traveler's wife.

The story looked very promising and with depth but was kind of ruined by the lack of chemistry


And a couple with great chemistry but horrible script and story the twilight saga.
I'm not a twilight fan but the success of the movies it's thanks to the chemistry with Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

I'm truly not biassed I dislike both of them as actors but I can't deny their chemistry and the hit this saga has been.

Really I've never seen before with a worse script which has been as successful as this one.

I think chemistry is instrumental to presenting romance onscreen. Without chemistry between the characters, it is impossible to invest in the romance.


I made this thread and I couldn't have say it better.
The chemistry is what makes us root for the main couple and keep us interested in the destiny of the main couple.

ITA. Lack of chemistry between the leads kills a romance movie.

I have to admit, the sexual tension didn't hurt. Kept me in my seat, and wanting more!
