What started as a glamorous thriller quickly spiraled into something no one saw coming. Rewinding back to the past when A Simple Favor
came out and became this hit twisted little delight- Anna Kendrick was the confused best friend, Blake Lively
rocked a power suit and martini, and fans were hooked on every sleek, stylish twist. So, naturally, when the sequel Another Simple Favor
hit Amazon Prime, people tuned in expecting more fabulous mystery.
Well, they got more. A whole lot more. And this time, things veered from chic to straight-up bonkers faster than one can say plot twist.
Another Simple Favor
dropped on April 30, and it wasted no time raising eyebrows. In a scene that sent viewers into full-body cringe, Blake Lively makes out with herself.
Yes, twin characters. Same face, same lips, a big smooch. Whatever the filmmakers were aiming for, the internet was not ready. It was not long before clips surfaced and reactions exploded—with viewers crying out in second-hand embarrassment and asking, who thought this was a good idea?
The CRINGE is so bad y’all. Another Simple Favor is a hot ass mess. Blake Lively couldn’t act her way out of a paper bag. Here is one of the INCEST scenes where she makes out with herself. This should’ve went straight to Tubi not Amazon Prime. Who wrote this I’m… pic.twitter.com/THHevIaXmA

The sequel tried to crank up the drama, but it ended up cranking up the awkward instead. What was meant to be a shocking, high-stakes revelation turned into a scene that no one could erase.
From high fashion to high discomfort, the movie tries to outdo the first with double the drama- literally, but ends up tangled in its own twist. Even with Kendrick and Lively reunited, Another Simple Favor
is not exactly the comeback fans had in mind.
With the Baldoni case already casting a heavy cloud over the film
, this scene did not do it any favors. What was meant to be shocking has turned into a full-on cringe-fest. Fans are reacting, and their reactions are impossible to ignore.
Blake Lively’s twin scene has fans cringing and questioning her career choices
Blake Lively, playing both twins, sharing an intimate kiss with herself, had fans screaming “it was horrible”
and flooding X, calling the scene “incest”
and wondering, “What is this movie?”
Some could not even finish it, with one fan admitting they had to “unsee”
it. Safe to say, it was not the thrilling sequel anyone expected.
It was horrible. I can’t believe they even released this movie.

The discomfort did not end with the awkward scene. As fans picked apart the chaotic plot, many could not wrap their heads around why a sister-on-sister kiss made it into the final cut. Some were so traumatized, they turned the movie off halfway
, calling it a total “hot mess.”
But the cringe did not stop there—viewers also questioned how this role would help Blake Lively’s image, with jabs at thrown at her left and right, with comments like “Now she can sue herself”
gaining traction.

This movie out won’t help her image.
Maybe only if she plays Mary Poppins or something like that.— Pati Lucas (@LucasPatrizia) May 4, 2025

The reactions kept rolling in, with fans demanding “eye bleach”
to cleanse their minds. And to add to the chaos, some even downvoted the film on Amazon, sending a clear message that this sequel was a misfire
. With all the cringe and backlash, it seems like Another Simple Favor
might not be the career boost Lively was hoping for—if anything, it might just make fans think twice before hitting play next time.
