There are two ways to look at Jennifer Lopez’s new film, “Marry Me” – as a chick flick romance or as an insightful study of social media and its pressures.

Oddly, that dip into the world of influencers, live posts and endorsements is pretty good. Director Kat Coiro shows how a superstar singer has every inch of her life sponsored, even her upcoming wedding. To maximize those hits , Kat Valdez and her fiancé Bastian have decided to wed on a New York concert stage. There, she’ll wear an elaborate gown, sing their duet, “Marry Me” and say the words that haven’t exactly spelled romantic success.

But then, she actually shows some interest in his life and understands what an insular life she has been leading. While some of the bits are far-fetched , the sentiment is clear: She has become too dependent on others making decisions. When J. Lo’s Kat tries to be coy and cute, “Marry Me” fizzles; when she pulls out a cart of free Coach bags, she’s much more interesting.
