The film's premise is deliciously dangerous: after breaking the One Wish Willow, a hopeless romantic gets his crush but discovers the wish's sinister price. That dark edge has caught fire on social media, with 12 million TikTok views in the first 48 hours, a number that edges past the marketing buzz of even the last Marvel movie.
