“You People” is a modern romantic comedy, so that means there has to be a moment in the third act where our primary romantic interests break up, seemingly never to reunite again. For Ezra and Amira, this incident comes after a wedding rehearsal, an event that sees each of them coming to blows with an in-law parent they’ve been struggling with throughout the movie. Ezra calls out Akbar Mohammed for wanting to destroy his relationship with Amira from the start, which extends to Akbar awkwardly attending Ezra’s bachelor party. Meanwhile, Amira interrupts Shelley Cohen’s (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) lengthy diatribe about the Chris Rock documentary “Good Hair” to tell Shelley she’s been treating her like a toy, not a person. Amira has been dying to be friends with Shelley, but she doubts she’ll ever be seen as a person by Ezra’s mom.
After these explosive confrontations, Ezra and Amira have a heart-to-heart chat about their relationship. They both agree that, even with their wedding so close, they should call off their relationship. Amira says she’s not sure if everyone’s relationships with their in-laws are this hard, but she doesn’t feel like they should be. Ezra agrees and the two, tears trickling down their respective cheeks, express how much they’ve loved being with one another. Unfortunately, being a couple means dealing with the other person’s parents and they can’t do that anymore. Ezra and Amira are no more as a romantic pairing … for now.
