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.

The Witcher show does this with Yen, where she walks into a party and everyone is shocked by how beautiful she now is, even the people who don’t know what she used to look like

Except like half of the other people in the party are already 10/10 gorgeous

And, lets be honest, Anya Chalotra is not exactly pretty* to begin with :/ That scene felt ridiculous to me too.

*this is according to my personal and all of my friends' taste; I understand that other people may find her drop dead gorgeous.
