Hidden meanings in Film noir: NO HARD FEELINGS (2023) - Don't fall for the doll eyes trap...

Published on 10 July 2026 at 07:56

Jennifer Lawrence pretends to be a teenage love in this comedy about an ignorant almost emotionless lad, trying to get out his scooter from his knickers. Its quite funny how Jennifer tries to look cute in teenage outfits, and boy, she is beautifully good at it. Anyways, the jokes wouldn't get us off track as we delve into the symbolic meanings behind this movie's scenes. Hope you have a good time reading our review. Thank you. 

  • Exploited Love 
    Gary is almost fooled by Maddie's doll eyes when he comes to impound her vehicle but lucky for him a hunky evidence rears his ugly head and wrestling pants through her front door. Maddie also uses this trick effectively on Percy and the poor lad falls head over heels in love.
    Don't fall for the doll eyes trap. Don't get all riled up by the bouncing cleavage and mushy eyes that makes you lose focus on yourself and your goals. In reality, most of such young women are used tools already enslaved to a system, and they do everything in service of the system that enslaves them. Even if they win you, don't let them rule you to the extent that you lose yourself. And they have to win you, because the system gets to everyone of them, compulsorily. Their like slaves in camouflage, like a King crucified on a cross. Suffering in exaltation, Queens without clothing!
    The enslaving bonds on women is also discussed in several reviews including Hemel and Frankie & Alice.
  • Closed to Fools 
    The beach which offers a beautiful scenery at night is closed to the public. Maddie and Percy need to trespass its laws and end up in a tussle with some miscreants.
    In reality, there are many recreational places that are declared closed at certain times but remain secretly open to the system of unruly initiates. Hence, Maddie needs to symbolize that she can defend her fun time by fighting off the clothes thieving miscreants, albeit nude. Her nudity also symbolizes that women are much like Ninjas, engaged in the hidden sword fighting techniques. If you get our drift. Oh world, Love where art thou?
  • The Worsening of Humiliating Nudity 
    Jennifer Lawrence's role as an almost nude Mystique in the X-Men must have reared some complaints or comments against her nude appearances in public during filming. Therefore, the full frontal nudity at the beach in this movie was most likely a worsening in response to the complaints. Well, thankfully those who see this movie on Netflix wouldn't be treated to the full quagmire due to censored images, but it is widely available on the internet using search engines like Google. Sites like AZnude.com are like encyclopedias of celeb sex scenes. We wouldn't be fooled by an expanded large screaming head scene on the beach by Netflix, duhhhh.
    Like we have mentioned before in reviews of American Sweatshop, Dune two, and The Rip, the system is enslaved to a bond of wrongness which makes them act contrary to expectations. Its almost like the entire world is living on the other side of a mirror, where the opposite is reality. Rather than feel remorseful about complaints, they do the direct opposite. They worsen it! We can call them slaves to the bonds of wrongness. The bonds of wrongness and its origins along with its dire consequences for our world is the subject of our eBook titled 'To Right a Wrong'.
  • Shocking, Mentally Debilitating 
    The moment when you realize that you're being played by love is shocking and mentally debilitating. Like Percy who takes to drinking and sarcastic responses, most people in the real world also take to substance abuse as they languish in self-pity under the shock of the deceitful untrained Ninjas.
    This author's sojourn with marijuana addictions and subsequent psychiatric treatment and counselling is a testament to such moments. An ode to the Ninjas swallowing swords like magicians.
    Love can be misguiding when it is based on sacrifice, rather than a metamorphosis from selflove. You can't give what you don't have, so first love yourself. If you love yourself, you'd want the best for yourself and you won't be misguided to do a lame thing like rejecting a top college admission. Don't fall for the doll eyes trap!!!

 

We could also say Percy purposely punched Maddie in the throat for pressing his head into a toilet, but that would be far-fetched. Thank you for reading and do get a load of our free eBooks, because it would help you understand our perspective. Have a great weekend.
