How is that missing the whole point of entertainment? I'm not saying that something you communicate has to be "deep" or have a moral or a message or a point or anything. What it communicates can be as simple as "this is fun! Lets have fun!" and be perfectly good.

But if the author is trying to communicate something poignant - like "this romance is good, care about these people" and instead comes off as saying something not poignant - like "this romance is awful" it isn't entertaining (unless of course it's so extreme it falls into the 'so bad it's good' territory, or stuff like that).

I was referring to suspension of disbelief.

Suspension of disbelief =/= "it's fiction, so believe it because I say so," especially when it comes to emotions/psychology rather than external stuff like magic, sci-fi, special effects, improbable coincidences, etc. Even if it's not realistic according to real life, it has to still be convincing/believable in the story itself.
