“Please just murder me now…”
F Marry Kill premiered in the US on Demand on March 7th 2025. The comedy thriller film stars Lucy Hale, Virginia Gardner, Brooke Nevin, Samer Salem, and Bethany Brown. It runs for approximately an hour and thirty-seven minutes.
After ending things with her long term boyfriend, Eva decides to give dating apps a try, but her friends and sister are concerned that one of her dates may actually be the “Swipe Right Killer.”
Here is the trailer:
F Marry Kill has a cute premise and a really fun cast, but does it do enough to earn a a watch? Let’s find out…
The Pros:
Fun and light.
If you’re looking for a quick weekend watch, F Marry Kill certainly fits the bill. It’s basically a step up from a Lifetime movie, but it has plenty of fun moments. I really adored the premise here and appreciated that this film didn’t take itself too seriously.
While not all of the humor landed for me, there were enough moments in this one to keep me invested until the end.
Lucy Hale always gives it her all.
Look, I’m seated for whatever film she’s in and I thought she did a great job here and carried a lot of scenes. The rest of the cast had their moments as well, although I would have liked some more scenes featuring the friends.
The Cons:
Not a fan of the twist.
I like the effort here, but I wasn’t really feeling the twist at the end. I did sort of see it coming, but I was hoping for something more. I really enjoyed the first half of the film, but I think it went off the rails toward the final act.
I also would have liked some gore in the mix. This film had all of the right ingredients, but the execution was slightly off and I think adding in some slasher elements might have helped.
So am I in or out?
I’m in about 75 percent…
F Marry Kill is a fun and quick watch, but it needed to dip more into the slasher side of things to truly make a splash.
I enjoyed my watch for the most part and I thought that Lucy Hale pretty much carried this film on her back, but it needed a few minor tweaks to stand out.

DON’T TAKE THE JOB…
It was only supposed to be temporary…but when Olivia Crewe accepts a new position that seems too good to be true, she soon discovers that twelve other girls previously had the same job as her. Only none of them lasted for more than thirty days. No notice. Nothing…right before they mysteriously disappeared without a trace.
