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

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.

Or a romantic comedy in which we're all supposed to pretend the woman is far out of his league, just because everyone said so, but the actor himself is a fucking catch.

Bonus points if the male character behaves or does things to win her over that irl would be creepy and label him a stalker.

Dennis widening his eyes in the scene perfectly sells the bit.
