"NBT: Ok, that was NOT the vibe in my theater lol. It was like 75% full and when the screen went black, it was totally silent for a split second and then someone let out an audible sigh. Which made everyone laugh. LT: I think it's worth noting where we watched...I saw it in a Massachusetts suburb on a Tuesday night. NBT: Fair point. I saw it in Berlin, Germany, also on a Tuesday night."
"NBT:- First and foremost: Jacob Elordi - Not sexy enough! The sex that we saw was, for the most part, extremely vanilla, and there was no nudity. If you want your movie to be considered Sexy Wuthering Heights, you gotta lean into it more imo - It basically just seems like a movie designed to be edited into a trailer and then infinite fancams. Fourth thought actually: the Charli soundtrack is soooooo good and I will listen to it forever."
Audience reactions varied by location; one theater was 75% full and reacted with a collective sigh followed by laughter, while other screenings elicited gasps. The film's sexual scenes were described as mostly vanilla with no nudity, leading viewers to feel the eroticism was underplayed. Jacob Elordi's performance was noted as impactful but not sufficiently sexy for some. Specific moments, such as a cliff rescue, generated strong physical reactions. Nudity omission was interpreted as an intentional nod to the novel's lack of kissing. The Charli soundtrack received enthusiastic praise and was highlighted as a lasting positive element.
