The new movie “Materialists” claims to criticize modern dating but fails working Americans. It tells the story of a matchmaker named Lucy who cares more about money than real love. She chases a rich businessman while stringing along her broke ex-boyfriend. This shows Hollywood’s warped view of relationships.
Lucy helps a client named Sofia who gets hurt on a bad date. The movie acts like this proves dating is dangerous. But it really shows what happens when we treat people like products. Conservatives know real relationships aren’t transactions.
The film pretends to attack materialism but still celebrates chaos. Lucy ditches the rich guy for her struggling ex. That’s no victory. It just trades one unstable choice for another. Where is the commitment? Where are the strong families we need?
Hollywood always pushes this false idea: You must choose between love and money. That’s a lie. Good marriages need both commitment and responsibility. This movie ignores how real families are built.
The Sofia subplot proves modern dating is broken. Women shouldn’t need matchmakers to find decent men. We’ve lost traditional courtship. Families and communities used to guide young people. Now it’s just apps and strangers.
Lucy’s final choice feels empty. Picking a broke actor over a businessman solves nothing. Both paths lead away from lasting marriages. The film mocks “fairytales” but offers no better vision. It’s just more confusion.
This movie exposes how far we’ve fallen. Relationships shouldn’t be nightmares. Conservatives know the answer: Faith, family, and real commitment. Not money games or ex-boyfriend drama.
“Materialists” proves Hollywood hates traditional values. It laughs at marriage and ignores real solutions. Americans should reject this garbage. We need art that strengthens families, not tears them down.
