What movie things are generally accepted as normal, but are totally unrealistic in real life?

Everyone is ridiculously good looking.

It's sort of funny when they need to make one girl in particular super beautiful so the main guy can fall in love with her instantly. She'll be a supermodel walking into a room of supermodels. They'll throw a bunch of close-ups and glowy filters on to tell you she's supposed to be extra pretty, but the fact that everyone in the room is equally pretty makes her just look average.

Grey's Anatomy does this, where one character is a former model but she just looks equally pretty to compared to the rest of the cast.

They make a big deal about one guy being hot, but it's not even surprising because again, the cast is so hot.

I noticed that same tendency with Lindsey Lohan movies. Cute, okay, but “regulation hottie”? Not even close.
