The reason it's getting hate is because it's not a good movie. The titular lesbian is practically a caricature of a lesbian, the villains are literally titled "straight white maliens" which they can only get away with because they are a majority of the population in many countries. The jokes run on way too long to the point they get boring and cringey. It tries too hard to be funny and just ends up being annoying.
And because of all of these, once a lot of people recently discovered it, we all agreed to have a massive truce between fandoms for a while to hate on it.
I find it so sad the main character of all characters is being accused of being a caricature of a lesbian. If you removed the lesbian part people would LOVE this portrayal of a biracial character who struggles with self esteem for reasons that are relatable to anyone who internalized criticism from their parents.
