Ella McCay Ratings & Reviews
- Desmond Karani11 april 2026Not bad but not good either.
- thomasrogers75320 december 2025Why can’t movies like this make money☹️
- wonderrxjr18 februari 2026It's enjoyable but so messy. I love that Emma Macky got a paycheck for this, but at what cost. Man people just really hate that a woman just wants to help people and also have sex, is that too much to ask of anyone?
- maryl96115 februari 2026Terrible story. Just pushing an agenda and forgetting to make a movie 🤣
- kaiserjt31 januari 2026Every bit as awful as you might have hoped for. A sincere and rather sad embarrassment to the career of a stored Hollywood figure in the form of a bafflingly inept dramedy. Only Jamie Lee Curtis emerges unscathed; even the great Woody Harrelson seems humiliated to be there. A 100-minute argument against using flashbacks in screenplays.
- David Daniel16 februari 2026Bizzoro land gorgeously photographed by Bob Elswit
- Rob Logan | The Geek Generation30 januari 2026I was excited to watch this based on the cast, but now that I'm done I couldn't summarize for you what happened or start to guess why someone wanted to create this story. None of these characters grow in any meaningful way from their starting points and the movie doesn't seem to have anything to say. Despite being given this script, the previously mentioned stellar cast gives it their all, but they can only do so much with so little.
- DeanVG4 februari 2026Just a good movie. Not amazing. But good.
- cultfilmliker14 december 2025“Do you really have to work or are you just trying to avoid talking about yourself?” Jesus Christ. Okay so Emma Mackey plays a character named Ella McCay….how is that the only good thing that happens in this film lol My mom often nods off and I wake her up but I decided to save her the disappointment on this one. Also unfortunately (for her) she managed to stay awake for 96% of it Laughed in the theater thrice. Only once was with the film. Some of the worst writing I’ve ever experienced in a major film. How the fuck are there so many “respected” actors in this!? And no wonder they’ve been showing the trailer constantly for months bc they spent so much money on this steaming pile of shit and knew it was gonna be humiliated. Was annoyed by the narrator after 3 minutes (less if I include the fact I’ve seen the trailers) ugh I know this is supposed to placate to older people but even they can’t think this is good, right??? Absolutely atrocious performances from everyone except but I mean at least Kumail & Ayo kinda tried? Loved that Ella was so mad about the overtime thing that she immediately had them proceed to work at least another two shifts before relief lmfao It was like the film wanted to be anti-political corruption but then got so distracted by the side characters it forgot to make a coherent point on any subject If I hear the phrase “normal family” one more time, ima become a family annihilator Closest I’ve ever been to walking out of a screening. As my mom put it, “Miserable.” Watched with my mommy at Warren Regal East Placed at the bottom of both of our 2025 Ranked lists. And she doesn’t even rank films!
- Michael Foster2 februari 2026As a huge James L. Brooks fan, I’m deeply confused how out of touch with reality this film came to be— a new governor who could easily pass for 19, with seemingly unlimited hours to annoy her younger brother and pry into his romance woes? Are you serious? Why oh why.
- amfxc30 januari 2026i didn’t even really watch it but i think i will tomorrow kinda tea
- rayhermo30 januari 2026An accurate description of the American political class.. and a precise depiction of the American White liberal male
- parktool6927 januari 2026confusing
