The movie No Hard Feelings starring Jennifer Lawrence presents a message for young men growing up to be adults. The film portrays a 19-year-old virgin named Percy, who is pressured by his parents to lose his virginity before starting college. In the process, he becomes involved with a 32-year-old Uber driver named Maddie, who is struggling to make ends meet and is in need of a new car.
Through this relationship, the film explores the themes of coming-of-age and sexual exploration. However, the film's problematic and controversial plot, which includes scenes of grooming and sexual harassment, has sparked criticism online. The movie seems to present a satirical approach to the safe-space generation and explores the complexities of age-gap relationships, but the exploitative nature of some scenes has led to controversy. Ultimately, the film's message for young men growing up to be adults is unclear and overshadowed by the controversy surrounding its plot.
‘No Hard Feelings’ Team Responds to Controversy Around Premise of Parents Hiring Someone to “Date” Their Son: Though the arrangement at the center of the film prompted some backlash on social media, writer-director Gene Stupnitsky assures viewers won't be grossed out after seeing the movie. "We took great pains to be careful about the ick factor," he says.
