The Most Awkward On-Screen Love Scenes In Movies

Going to the movies is usually a fun event for the whole family unit. There's a reason that moving-picture show theaters — filled with people talking during dialogue, overpriced food and snacks, and questionably glutinous floors — accept survived for then long despite all our other entertainment options. Information technology's the kind of activity y'all can do at any time of day, and usually with just about everyone.

Of course, there are exceptions if a motion-picture show has some more...grown-upward textile. Because allow's face it: depending on who you're watching a movie with, a love scene tin can be awkward for a variety of reasons. Mom, dad, and grandma are sitting next to you? Forget information technology, you don't even want two characters kissing for too long, allow lone full-on going at it. Only some beloved scenes transcend even circumstantial weirdness, and are then painfully awkard in and of themselves that you'd exist embarrassed to sentry them alone. Here's a listing of love scenes that will have you begging, "Ugh, tin nosotros get back to the graphic violence, please?"

Watchmen - Superhero sexy time

Second only to that blue naked guy, the weirdest affair in Watchmen just might exist the big sex scene. Nite Owl (Patrick Wilson) and Silk Spectre II (Malin Akerman) join forces for some muddy superhero activity. It'southward celebratory sex after an evening of crime-fighting (and coming right after an unsuccessful tryst where a nervous Nite Owl couldn't, uh, perform his superhero duties). But actually, it's near two people who have to put on superhero costumes and beat bad guys to get in the mood. What's really weird is that Nite Owl and Silk Spectre make love in Nite Owl'south "Owlship" vehicle to the strains of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah," a vocal that's more than sad than sexy. Critic Geoff Boucher of the Los Angeles Times called the scene "off-putting," and nosotros have to agree.

American Beauty - Your daughter's friend is never okay

Despite the fact that American Beauty is undoubtedly a swell moving-picture show full of fantastic performances, it doesn't alter the fact that i of the storylines involves a dad lusting after his teenage girl's friend. When Kevin Spacey and Mena Suvari finally have their vomit-inducing honey scene (which thankfully stops short of the big moment), the tenderness of Mena's vulnerability only serves to highlight how inappropriate the whole matter was from the kickoff. Merely throughout the movie, Spacey'due south lustful fantasies about her are generally played for comedy, so when their real encounter finally happens, it'south a very "Please tell the states this is not happening right now" moment. The punctuation of the scene where he covers her with a blanket is such a post-traumatic gesture that virtually viewers are probably just relieved it'southward over. Plus, he gets murdered moments later on.

This scene isn't any easier to lookout man in a post-MeToo earth, where Kevin Spacey has been accused of multiple sexual improprieties, including some involving young people.

Requiem for a Dream - Did that really just happen?

The uncomfortable scene in question here occurs at the stop of Requiem for a Dream, when each of the main characters are deep in the worst chapter of addiction. We're literally witnessing their rock bottoms. Jennifer Connelly plays Marion, a heroin aficionado who resorts to selling her torso for the drug when she is recruited into doing a "show" for a bunch of demonic, salivating men who jeer and throw money on her and another woman during the performance. It's not so much a dearest scene every bit a horrifically graphic act that occurs amid a swirling, brilliantly edited sequence that non only weaves together the atrocious predicaments that each graphic symbol has found themselves in, but too imparts their panic and despair onto the audition through the constructive, if non jarring utilize of stupor value.

Find and Report - Stops existence funny

Almost any dearest scene in a comedy could brand this listing—MacGruber, American Pie, Knocked Up—because love scenes in comedies are specifically played for awkward laughs, but Observe and Study isn't a standard comedy. Information technology's dark, twisted humor from the creator of Eastbound & Down, so when Seth Rogen finally lands his dream girl, Anna Faris, their dearest scene strays directly into seedy territory. They endeavor to recover the scene with a joke, as the passed-out Faris with whom Rogen is getting it on one-half wakes up and says "Why are you stopping?" simply at that indicate the date rapey vibe becomes likewise much. That'due south a gross exploitation of a terrible situation. Not to mention merely watching a sweaty Seth Rogen fumble his way through love-making with any beautiful actress is tough to watch. It even makes you empathize with Katherine Heigl, and that'southward no easy job.

The 40-Year-Quondam Virgin - Too much, too fast

The 40-Year-Sometime Virgin consists almost entirely of 1 uncomfortable scene after another. It's nigh a bunch of boorish dudes who work at an electronics store and decide to aid their nerdy colleague Andy (Steve Carell) boom down his outset intimate experience. They requite him a lot of ill-advised advice, and Andy embarks on several disastrous dates, all while slowly falling in sweet love with a unmarried mother and modest business owner named Trish (Catherine Keener).

Andy gradually prepares to accept things to a physical level, but his friends button him to choice upwardly the footstep. At a club one night, he runs into Beth (Elizabeth Banks), a lady he'd previously skillful flirting with, and she takes him dwelling house. She aggressively attempts to seduce Andy, whipping him with his belt and bitter him on the lip. Finally, before he can accept a bad first time (and cheat on Trish), his friends evidence up to bail him out. That's practiced, because the guy has been rocking a distant, traumatized stare since Beth got him into her bedroom.

Showgirls - Is this a love scene or a bull ride?

Showgirls came on the heels of director Paul Verhoeven's manic run of RoboCop, Full Recall, and Bones Instinct, and then he was probably looking for that same kind of visceral reaction when he took on the world of nude dancers in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, he produced a campy melodrama that would take been more at home on Lifetime if it weren't for the graphic sexual practice, most specifically the now infamous pool scene. In it, Elizabeth Berkley writhes around on top of Kyle MacLachlan like someone just threw a toaster in next to them. If you can wipe the tears of laughter from your eyes in time, you can literally see the confusion on his face as he had to exist thinking "What is she doing?! Oh well, at least I know they'll never use this take."

MacGruber - Not ready to give up the ghost

MacGruber began as a recurring Saturday Night Live bit, an obvious parody of the 1985-1992 activeness show MacGyver. In that show, Richard Dean Anderson starred as a genius who could save the day by making life-saving inventions out of household materials — those existence the verbal words of the "MacGruber" sketch'southward theme vocal. In every installment, MacGruber (Will Forte), alongside administration Casey (Maya Rudolph) or Vicki (Kristen Wiig), would effort to go out of a locked room with a ticking flop, using just whatever was lying around ... and he'd inevitably fail.

Forte and collaborators John Solomon and Jorma Taccone needed to mankind that out for a total-length movie, and so made MacGruber a parody of over-the-top '80s activity movies. Amid all the explosions and lone-wolf theatrics, those films always included a steamy love scene. So does MacGruber. As Mr. Mister'due south ability ballad "Broken Wings" plays, MacGruber begins to make sweet dearest to his wife, Casey, in her wedding gown. Then things get hilariously weird and dark. The music falls abroad, and viewers see a bare-buttocked MacGruber grunting away atop his white-lace-covered lady ... in a graveyard, while a groundskeeper watches. But wait ... Casey died earlier in the picture show, and MacGruber re-establishes that fact with a cut back to MacGruber, now standing nude in a graveyard at night, moaning and talking dirty as he does his thing to a ghost that no one else tin can see.

Kickboxing Academy - Sibling revelry

Kickboxing Academy has a title and then hilariously '90s that it couldn't possibly exist a real moving-picture show. Information technology is, although this 1997 B-picture show was also released nether the far more dull (if accurate) championship Teen Boxer.The plot concerns, of form, kickboxing and the day-to-day activities at a kickboxing academy. (It's right in the title!) Ultimately, the kickboxing kids take to foursquare off against the kickboxing kids from another martial arts school.

Among those kickboxing kids are a couple of fresh-faced teens named Cindy and Danny, played by Chyler Leigh (years before she starred in Not Another Teen Movie and on Grayness's Beefcake) and Christopher Khayman Lee (from multiple Ability Rangersseries). Fun fact: In real life, Leigh and Lee are blood brother and sister. Not then fun fact: Their characters are romantically involved. And the cruel director didn't call back it was at all weird to shoot and then include multiple scenes in which Cindy and Danny get their smooch on.

Splice - Boy meets girl/animate being genetic experiment entity

The 2009 science-fiction/horror flick Splice raises a lot of questions about the moral implications and personal ramifications of science, particularly the apace evolving field of study of genetic applied science. While working at a scientific facility called Nucleic Exchange Research and Evolution (or N.E.R.D.), genetic engineers Clive (Adrien Brody) and Elsa (Sarah Polley) secretly develop a feasible creature, mixing man DNA with genetic materials from animals.

The being that results grows from child to young woman very quickly, and Elsa names her Dren (N.E.R.D. backward). Clive, meanwhile, clearly finds Dren (Delphine Chanéac) beautiful, although she'southward more animal than human with her giant eyes, long tail, and feet that await like hands. It'south obvious the moving-picture show is going to build to some kind of intimate deed between Clive and Dren, simply it doesn't make it any less weird when it happens. And information technology does happen, in a barn where Dren has been locked upwards, no less. Information technology's like he's getting downwardly with his coworker and his pet all at once.

Last Tango in Paris - Disturbing and nonconsensual

Almost moving picture love scenes feature actors awkwardly playing pretend, but in 1972's Final Tango in Paris, what audiences witnessed was more of a filmed assault. This sexual practice-laden drama boasts an infamous scene where Marlon Brando's character uses a stick of butter as lubricant before having his way with Maria Schneider's grapheme. As you might've guessed, Schneider didn't sign up for this. Sure, the scene was in the script, but the addition of butter was a last-infinitesimal thought suggested past Brando to managing director Bernardo Bertolucci, who thought it was a dainty bear on to add to the grapheme'southward degradation. In 2007, Schneider said that filming the scene made her feel "humiliated" and "a little raped, both by Marlon and past Bertolucci."

The Spectacular Now - Style too realistic

With Miles Teller at his Miles Teller-est and Shailene Woodley at her perfect everygirl-ness, The Spectacular Now is more often than not regarded equally about every bit sincere as a teen beloved story gets. The problem was that the filmmakers took that sincerity correct into the bedroom for the pair'south beginning time—and never before has iv minutes of picture palace felt like such an eternity. The giggling, the nervousness, the physicality of the scene—everything is so innocent and real that it makes you feel similar you shouldn't be witnessing such a personal moment. Don't go the states wrong, information technology's a totally sweet and endearing film, and you'll probably cry and laugh at this film. But ask yourself this: if you could go dorsum and sentry your first fourth dimension, would you?

Breaking Dawn: Part I - Too tough to motion-picture show

One of the benefits of a book over a movie is that the responsibility of bringing magical scenes to life is placed on the reader. Authors can depict things with every bit much detail equally they like, but even if they just convey a feeling or a sensibility, information technology's mission accomplished. A filmmaker, on the other manus, has to actually evidence things in a realistic way, and the actors have to convincingly portray a scene that just might non be realistic for their characters or, y'all know, reality.

For Breaking Dawn: Part I, the filmmakers ran into problem with the long-awaited moment of sexual congress between the so-in-dearest-it-hurts Bella (human daughter) and Edward (vampire boy). Kristen Stewart, as Bella, realized it was a foolhardy mission. As laid out in Stephenie Meyer's Breaking Dawn novel, the sex scene "had to be transcendent and otherworldly, inhuman, amend sex than yous tin can possibly ever imagine," causing an understandably frustrated Stewart to ask, "How practise we live upwardly to that?" As a result, the extra describes filming the scene with Robert Pattinson as "agony," even though he was her real-life fellow at the time.

Fifty Shades of Grayness - Hilariously bad in every way

Few films take received the level of critical derision and simultaneous fan acclaim suffered byFifty Shades of Greyness. That'south because the simply people who similar the pic are also fans of the laughable novels. Their publisher put sentences like "Hmm ... My inner goddess is doing the merengue with some salsa moves" into impress, and asked people to pay money for information technology. And so, it's no surprise that the motion-picture show's director created the aforementioned corny, heavy-handed, implausible romance that sees Anastasia, the mousy virgin, transformed into a kinky submissive at the hands of Christian, a man who would definitely be considered a creepy predator if he weren't a billionaire.

Each love scene escalates further into ridiculousness to the point where the climax of the film occurs when Anastasia freaks out after Christian spanks her too hard. This happens in his "play room," which looks like it was teleported from the Belfry of London and features hooks, whips, chains, and all other style of medieval-looking torture devices that Anastasia seemingly has no result with. But seriously, Christian, take it easy on the spanking, would ya?

Avatar - Honey is blueish

James Cameron's CGI world of Avatar was and then unlike, and then alien, that even the act of concrete intimacy was something to behold. Of grade, that doesn't accept into consideration whether or non it was something anyone really wanted to behold. Here'southward the main matter: on the planet Pandora, making love is basically just plug and play. Thank you to his Na'six avatar, human Marine Jake Sully (Sam Worthington) can become busy with actual Na'vi female Neytiri (Zoe Saldana). Of course, that means connecting the tendrils on the ends of their braids to fully experience 1 another in the well-nigh intimate of ways. And let's not forget, this all goes down in a purple jellyfish forest.

That's not the worst part about all this. No, the worst part is that audiences were so enamored with the planet of Pandora and all the Na'vi'southward ponytail-linking honey that many people actually reported feeling depressed that they couldn't live in the world ofAvatar in real life.

Gigli - "It's turkey time. Gobble gobble."

Just in case that line of dialogue upward there—which is a straight quote of the pillow talk from this picture—wasn't a strong enough indicator of how awful Gigli is, here'south another piece of info to solidify that framework: Martin Brest, the director, never made another pic after Gigli. Now, onto the dreadful love scenes. According to IMDb, the studio forced Brest to turn what originally was a mob movie into a rom-com to "greenbacks in on the relationship betwixt Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez." And so, our only explanation for the resulting love scenes has to be that they were a vindictive parting shot by a director already set on leaving the business organisation. We imagine his direction was something like, "Evidence the globe exactly what it'due south like in Bennifer's existent bedroom." Then he probably went back to his trailer and drank until he passed out while Ben Affleck delivered a nauseatingly realistic depiction of the faces he makes in the throes of passion. Only your partners, the sleeping room ceiling, and mayhap Matt Damon should accept ever seen that, Ben. Yuck.

Howard the Duck - Pretty ducking weird

Howard the Duck is a lot of things. Information technology's the kickoff movie based on a Marvel Comics-created character since Captain America thrilled kids with a blackness-and-white serial in 1944. It's also the first bomb of George Lucas's career. And it'due south the only movie, or at least the simply mainstream American comedy, to characteristic a tender comprehend between a female rock star (Lea Thompson) and a man-sized, anthropomorphic duck (voiced past Chip Zein). Really, we don't need to hear how Thompson just can't resist Howard's "intense, fauna magnetism." Of form, since this 1986 picture is one of the lowest-grossing movies in Marvel history, it's probably condom to say we won't meet any human-duck love scenes in the future.

Munich - An odd break from horrible things

Dear scenes can become in all kinds of movies — non merely romantic comedies. Sometimes a super serious drama, or fifty-fifty a fun and action-filled romp tin exist spiced up with a cinematic coil in the hay, right? In full general, most audiences are down for some kind of romantic interlude in a motion-picture show just to break the tension. Then once more, just because a movietin can have a dear scene doesn't mean itshould.

Case in bespeak: You know what a moving-picture show nigh Israeli assassins sent to avenge the deaths of athletes who were brutally murdered by terrorists at the 1972 Summer Olympics doesn't demand? A dear scene. Afterward spending a very long fourth dimension hunting down terrorists, Avner (Eric Bana) makes whoopie with his wife (Ayelet Zurer), and the activity cuts between scenes of their wild ecstasy and vehement images of people beingness gunned downwardly at an drome. True, manager Steven Spielberg was probably but trying to be both artful and cathartic with the scene, merely that doesn't make information technology whatever less uncomfortable.

Kingpin - He's a very sick man

At the 2019 Academy Awards, Peter Farrelly won ii Oscars for his piece of work on the race relations drama Green Book. Yes, the guy who made some of the grossest and most outrageous comedies of the '90s — At that place'due south Something Nearly Mary, Dumb and Dumber, and Kingpin — owns more Oscars than Martin Scorsese. He'south besides fabricated way more than bowling comedies than Scorsese. Well, just the i:Kingpin.

Quondam bowling champion Roy Munsen (Woody Harrelson) is downwards on his luck. An attempt to hustle apprentice bowlers goes poorly, and he loses his hand in a ball return accident. Two decades subsequently, he'south reduced to selling bowling supplies and spends most of his fourth dimension drinking. All of this leaves him extremely poor, and he has little option but to bed down with his landlady (Lin Shaye) and so she'll be more forgiving with his perpetually tardily rent payments.

That's the uncomfortable setup — an alcoholic has to prostitute himself to non be homeless. In that location'southward an even more than unsettling payoff. Roy stages an set on on the landlady (and so as to chase the guy off and earn himself some favor), but she finds out about information technology, and she forces him to make it up to her in the bedchamber. Cutting to the landlady, presented as elderly and unattractive, lying in bed smoking a cigarette in mail-coital bliss while Roy throws up in the adjoining bathroom.

Oldboy - Daddy's girl

The twisty 2003 action drama Oldboyfrom author-director Park Chan-wook won numerous awards on the festival excursion, including the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Flick Festival. Amid the labyrinthine and unpredictable plot, there's a honey scene that becomes disturbing in retrospect later on all the mysteries take unraveled themselves.

Oh Dae-su (Choi Min-sik) gets arrested i night for public drunkenness and misses his young daughter'due south birthday political party. After a friend retrieves him from a police station, he's kidnapped and isolated in a hotel room for 15 years. When he's finally released, he wanders into a sushi restaurant and strikes upwardly a relationship with its young chef, Mi-do (Kang Hye-jung). He tries to get his life back together, but gives up on finding his daughter when he learns she was adopted past a Swedish couple.

Soon, his captor, Lee Woo-jin, contacts Dae-su with an ultimatum: If he guesses the reason for his imprisonment in five days, Woo-jin will impale himself; if not, he'll impale Mi-practise. Dae-su and Mi-practice's relationship grows increasingly intimate, but and then Dae-su figures information technology all out. He went to loftier schoolhouse with Woo-jin, and he saw the guy engage in incest with his sis. Dae-su spread the news, and, he finds out, the sis was so mortified she committed suicide. It would seem that Woo-jin has had his revenge on Dae-su, with the imprisonment ... and forcing incest upon him. Remember his long-lost daughter? That's Mi-do.

Demolition Human being - Virtual insanity

The 1993 sci-fi satire Demolition Human being had an ambitious and bizarre view of what "the future" would be like. Sylvester Stallone plays John Spartan, a cop from the '90s, cryogenically frozen until 2032, when he's thawed out to hunt a principal criminal (Wesley Snipes). Spartan wakes to a world he finds bizarre and confusing. For example, the just restaurant is Taco Bong, toilet paper has been replaced by shells, and the matter that people practise behind closed doors is conducted with virtual reality helmets.

Yep, viewers get a glimpse of futurity dearest, but that can only happen after John's guide, San Angeles (because L.A. and San Diego take merged in the hereafter) police lieutenant Lenina Huxley (Sandra Bullock) initiates the human activity in the about overly verbose and technically-worded seduction in pic history. Nothing gets a guy interested similar the phrase "general state of neurological arousal."

As one of the least romantic songs ever fabricated — the theme from The Love Boat — plays, Lenina emerges from her bedroom, dressed in a robe and brandishing two skull-clamping VR helmets. Lenina closes her eyes, starts animate heavily, and then the feel kicks in for John. Patently "making dearest" in the time to come consists of a serial of rapid-burn, split-second, multi-colored images of 1'south partner. It's all then much that John "breaks contact" and rips his helmet off.

Gone Girl - Takes hard left into horrific

Gone Girl has a few grisly scenes, merely the 1 that takes the block is undoubtedly the beloved scene/throat-slitting of Desi, 1 of Amy's ill-fated marks in her diabolical plan to frame her husband for murder. For the sake of getting right to the affair at hand, we'll set aside some seemingly big plot holes with the scene in full general—like how would she later explain her access to a razor if she was supposedly Desi'due south captive? Anyway, the scene is set up for tension from the start. The lighting makes the room look like a bordello, and the score is nada just foreboding tones that signal imminent dread rather than sexy fourth dimension. And just when Desi's going to give united states of america the ever cringe-worthy moment of any beloved scene, we're sliced right into "OH MY GOD!" territory and everything changes. Needless to say, Neil Patrick Harris, who plays Desi, did not have the best time ever in this scene. But at least it was over quick.
