Blasé is a French loan word. It means indifferent to something because that something has been experienced many times before.
I’m not sure if that’s the word you’re referring to, but that’s the only thing I can think of

@Cece_C can u show me an example sentence

Of course, after traveling the world, the tourist had a blase attitude about seeing their home town.
People have seen so many technological innovations, they’ve become blasé to new inventions.
- Spanish (Spain)
@Cece_C so it means to feel different in new situations
- English (US)
It means that you don’t really care about something because you’ve done it or seen it so many times before

Does that make sense? I don’t use this word very often. Sorry if my examples are confusing

In that context, I would say “your movies are trite”. Blasé refers to someone’s attitude. I was blasé about your movies, They’re all about the same thing

Trite means boring and overused, but for an opinion, idea, things like that
