Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Once thought of as "America's Sweetheart" because of her endearing roles in a series of romantic comedies and heartwarming films, Meg Ryan's new movie What Happens Later continues a 25-year Rotten Tomatoes streak of negative reviews. Ryan became one of the most beloved actresses in the world after moves like You've Got Mail, Sleepless in Seattle, and When Harry Met Sally.
Meg Ryan's rom-com movie return to acting opposite David Duchovny in What Happens Later seemingly does not live up to expectations. The movie is about a woman who finds herself trapped in an airport overnight with her ex, and the two spend the night snowed in and reminisce about their past relationship and what might have been.
Meg Ryan Hasn't Starred In A Well-Reviewed Movie Since You've Got Mail The rotten score for What Happens Later is the latest in a 25-year streak of bad reviews for Meg Ryan's movies. The last movie for Meg Ryan that received Fresh review scores from critics is You've Got Mail, which was released in December 1998, almost exactly 25 years ago. Since that time, Ryan has starred in 11 films that have received rotten scores on Rotten Tomatoes based on the opinions of film critics.
The 54% rating for What Happens Later is her highest score in 22 years, with Kate and Leopold finishing with a 52% score, but still falls below the Fresh threshold. In the 17 years between her film debut in Rich and Famous in 1981, and You've Got Mail, Ryan had 14 total movies receive a Fresh rating from Rotten Tomatoes, but none since the year 1998.
Why What Happens Later's Rotten Tomatoes Score Is So Bad Generally, critics and reviewers of the film welcome Meg Ryan back to movies with open arms, but have a number of problems with the plot and construction of What Happens Later. A common theme among reviewers on Rotten Tomatoes is that for a romantic comedy, the movie is just not that funny and seems to have more serious overtones than the light fare audiences are used to with Meg Ryan movies.
