The book was great, i was worried that Lucy wasn’t the right fit but turns out she did great. The film itself was the worst I’ve watched in a while, zero chemistry between characters Josh’s delivery was all wrong and it felt like there were huge gaps in the plot. Random sex scenes and holding hands when they were at each others throats it absolutely was awful. Certain scenes in the book where the delivery was perfection and what was said was clear and meaningful somehow was turned into absolute rubbish with zero meaning in the film, whoever wrote the script clearly hasn’t got any sense of emotions. Mega disappointed :(

I don't even know, TBH

Liking a movie and hating a movie feels exactly the same...

it's very bad didn't enjoy it at all the story was rushed plus they have no chemistry 0/10

The Hating Game, a nice little RomCom with a modern take on relationships. The on-screen chemistry was there. Lucy's character was full of emotionally charged energy. Austin's character was a 'stone-walled masculine show no and speak no emotions'. The script was well written and there was that right amount of comedy. Being a RomCom, the story was very predictable and has been done over and over before however, The Hating Game puts a modern twist on ''young'' relationships with a mix of career vs love. Overall; enjoyable.

this was the book come to life! I absolutely loved it :) (Austin Stowell wasn’t...the best, but this was such a fun movie I’ll give him a pass I guess)

I adore the book and Lucy Hale so it was kind of daunting to go into this. I was scared I wasn't going to like it. Lucy was amazing but the Austin dudes acting was so flat? He does have chemistry with Lucy but apart from that he wasn't good for the role at all.

My main problem was the guy they cast. Just bad acting. He has the most monotone delivery, just killed any sense of chemistry. Lucy did her best but it wasn't enough.

I played the hating game all the way through this vapid movie.

This was so good! I was captivated by this relationship the whole time. Felt lie a Hallmark movie (which is a good thing to me)

I enjoyed it for what it was, but there were some bits that felt a bit rushed thru. Lucky I'd read the book or else I may have gotten lost along the way.

The movie is not completely loyal to the book so that’s my main problem with the movie I think they cut or change key points of the book I disagree with the people saying Austin it’s not a well cast if you reas the book you feel and know he’s the best fit but I think the main problem it’s the script and the things they decided to change and it makes me feel like it lose the magic of the book but overall it’s a good movie to enjoy the time

boring movie.. could've been better..

yo lol what was going thru the casting directors' minds when they chose this cast? #NotMyJoshLucy

For about five minutes there's an amusing degree of toxicity between rivals "Lucy" (Lucy Hale) and "Josh" (Austin Stowell) who are both vying for the new job as managing director at their firm. They share an office and a very thinly veiled attraction to each other and after a few snide comments the smart-mouthery goes the way of the dodo and off we go on a predictable rom-com that surprisingly enough manages to string itself out for almost one hundred whole minutes of precisely no jeopardy, very little comedy and writing that is the stuff of a pubescent fantasy. How can a couple, called "Lucy" and "Josh" not hit it off? It's not like they are called Geoffrey and Gladys! Add to this rather watery mix poor old "Danny" (Damon Daunno) who is keen on her but ends up being her emotional pin-cushion, and her warring bosses "Helen" (Sakina Jeffrey) and a clearly down on his luck Corbin Bernsen ("Bexley") and we have the makings of an instantly forgettable, cheesy and predicable yarn that even the dulcet tones of Nina Simone cant really breathe life into. Daytime telly fodder - nah!
