She's Out of My League is a 2010 American Romantic Comedy. It was directed by Jim Field Smith and written by Sean Anders and John Morris.The premise starts simple enough: boy (Kirk (Jay Baruchel)), an airport security agent) meets girl (Molly (Alice Eve)), an event planner), and through a series of circumstances end up falling in love. But Molly's very attractive, while Kirk doesn't consider himself much of a catch — and neither do his friends, who pick at him for being luckier than they think he deserves. Thus he's scared of losing her, even before her gorgeous ex-boyfriend Cam (Geoff Stults) steps in on the scene and declares that he will do all in his power to get her back. | |

Four-Philosophy Ensemble: Kirk and his friends. Stainer: The Cynic, since he believes that Kirk and Molly will not work out. Devin: The Optimist, who is confident that Kirk will succeed. Kirk: The Realist, who is the middle ground between Stainer and Devin. Jack: The Apathetic, who has the least involvement in the story. | |

Hidden Depths: Kirk is surprised when Molly not only understands what's going on at the hockey game but actually seems to understand more than him. In a deleted scene, she also gives him tips for the move that wins him the game with Dylan, as he had no strategy but hit as hard as he can. It's implied she knows so much about hockey because she dated the player who bumped into the fence in front of her during the game. | |

Jizzed in My Pants: Poor Kirk. While Molly is rubbing up against him in his lap as they kiss, he gets so aroused he loses control and ejaculates. To make things even worse it happens literally seconds before Molly's parents enter the room. The dog also licks Kirk's crotch, which is wet with his jizz. Yuck. | |

Actor Allusion | |
| She's Out of My League / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Kirk's brother Dylan asks Molly if they're together because she "hit his car", which is a reference to Alice Eve's role in the 2006 drama Crossing Over as an illegal immigrant forced into a relationship with an immigration agent (played by Ray Liotta) after hitting his car. Additionally, Alice Eve also had a role in a biographical drama about Stephen Hawking, who is mentioned in the discussion about real-life Ugly Guy, Hot Girlfriend couples. | |

So Beautiful, It's a Curse | |
| She's Out of My League / int_3b9b21c9 | comment |
So Beautiful, It's a Curse: Molly bemoans being placed on a pedestal as "perfect", when she honestly has plenty of her own hang-ups, insecurities, and flaws. The movie primarily focuses on how it's a bit of a curse from Kirk's point of view, since he has to deal with his own insecurities and the petty jealousy and spite of those around him, which consciously or unconsciously work to sabotage the relationship. | |

Race for Your Love | |
| She's Out of My League / int_66805a18 | comment |
Race for Your Love: A gender-inverted version of this trope. Whereas many romantic comedies end with the man chasing the woman through an airport so that he can declare his love to her before she flies out of his life forever, in this film Molly chases Kirk through the airport. Once Jack is able to force the plane to disembark, Kirk tries to race to her, pursued by Marnie (see next bullet point). Parodied with Marnie, who pursues Kirk out of pure jealousy, knocking him down while he attempts to get to Molly. | |

The Unfair Sex | |
| She's Out of My League / int_6ae4dedd | comment |
The Unfair Sex: The movie explores this. Marnie is treated as completely in the wrong for dumping Kirk and hanging out with his family, only wanting him back when he wants to move on. Molly also admits that she was unfair to Kirk; even if his insecurities sucked and sabotaged their relationship, she also saw him as a "safe" guy and not for who he really was. | |

Sexiness Score: The premise of the film is the Unequal Pairing of Kirk and Molly, with characters often using this trope to point it out, claiming he's a 5 or a six while she's a "hard 10". The tagline of the movie is even "How can a 10 go for a 5?". | |

Because You Were Nice to Me: To some extent. When Molly is going through airport security, Kirk's the only one who's polite to her and doesn't attempt to make sleazy passes at her (which she's probably become used to by this point). | |

Metal Detector Checkpoint: Naturally, there's one at the airport where Kirk works, where one perverted airport security guard sets off the metal detector when pretty women pass through it to force them to undress. When he tries doing it to Molly, Kirk intervenes on her behalf, which is how the two first meet. | |

Straw Loser: Kirk may be presented as just an average guy, but he looks great next to assholes like his lecherous boss at the airport and especially his brother, who is fat, dumb, boorish, wears tighty-whities, and is a sore loser. They're the "1"s to Kirk's supposed "5", basically. | |

"The Reason You Suck" Speech | |
| She's Out of My League / int_7d89315b | comment |
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: Many. Kirk gives one to his whole family (minus his mom) and Marnie on the plane. He intended to get off the plane but couldn't... and boy were they pissed. It becomes a Deconstructed Trope when the speech doesn't magically win him the situation, so he's stuck with his boorish and angry family members. At least until his friends stop the plane. Devon also lays into Kirk's other friends for both their constant ragging on him and their supposed knowledge about the opposite gender, pointing out that for all their supposed wisdom and experience, they're just jealous and insecure and don't know nearly as much as they pretend: Molly gives one to Kirk, citing each deduction that she sees that would bring him to a "five". This is inverted slightly by the fact that Molly lied to her parents about Kirk's line of work and later admits she asked him out because she thought he was "safe". | |

| She's Out of My League / int_820ac3c5 | comment |
Dysfunction Junction: Kirk''s four friends: Kirk can't get over his bitchy and manipulative ex-girlfriend. Then he's too insecure when he gets together with Molly. Stainer's girlfriend dumped him because he was afraid of not being good enough for her, but he didn't realize it (until she spelled it out for him afterwards) and ended up believing in the scale system. Devon gushes about how Happily Married he is, but gets too excited when a woman at a party thinks he's hot. Jack slept with Devon's wife. | |

Jerk Jock: Molly's ex, Cam, is a cocky, macho (callsign: Foot Long) pilot who belittles Kirk for being stuck as airport security. He employs Dirty Social Tricks such as pretending to mistake Kirk for either waitstaff or Molly's gay friend to humiliate him, then lets slip that Molly has some defect so that Kirk's insecurities make him curious and ruin his and Molly's relationship. | |

Dumb Blonde | |
| She's Out of My League / int_8e4a0f15 | comment |
Dumb Blonde: Molly's sister. She has no tact, shows up at a social event with a see-through shirt, then proceeds to mix the drinks on a tray she's carrying and drinks them herself. She also picks food off the ground and puts it back onto the same tray, after which she offers it to the guests, absent-mindedly informing them the food has been dropped. She also has a taste for clothes like Kirk's ex, which is not flattering at all. | |

Betty and Veronica: Kirk is the Betty and Molly's ex, Cam, is the Veronica for Molly's Archie, while Molly and Marnie play with the Betty and Veronica stereotypes for Kirk. | |

Abusive Parents: Not abusive, necessarily, but really dismissive of Kirk's feelings. They show Kirk much less affection than they do for his brother, they side with his ex-girlfriend after she dumps him (to the point of inviting her on family vacations), and his dad buys a pool instead of sending Kirk to college. | |

Politeness Judo: Molly never sinks down to the level of Kirk's family with their crude remarks and lowbrow jokes. She maintains a calm, polite demeanor the entire time and occasionally drops some politely veiled retort (such as bluffing about wearing no underwear or telling Dylan and Debbie what commission she would take for planning their supposedly expensive wedding they were bragging about, which is far more expensive than what they can afford) to shock them into silence. She looks quite pleased with herself when she does it, too. | |

Not to mention her last boyfriend Cam cheated on her. | |
