When It Rains in LA

There's absolutely no way that these positive reviews are genuine, some ai bulk review thing. It's badly made, full of continuity errors, poorly written and feels more like a college project than anything else. The acting in some points is pretty laughable with characters that have just met getting waay too personal too quickly. The soundtrack makes the movie feel more like a music video for the directors friends group than a movie. The rain scenes are really weird and it has no consistency, using the same rain filter infront of the camera for all of the shots even through transitions.

Give it a miss I beg you.

If you are interested in some forgettable characters having long conversations that go nowhere before going out to a club that looks like the most boring place in LA and then have more conversations that go nowhere in that setting, then this movie is for you. At about the hour mark, my husband turned to me and said, "what is this movie about?" The acting was so bad. It's is movies like this that give the Razzies no credibility. There is no way that any of the actors and actresses nominated for Razzies this year were worse than the actors in this movie. It never figured out what the point of this movie was.

I'm not a critic but I am a movie buff.

Pros : It has a real story. It was not 2 hours long. At the end it made me think. Cons : It could be move things faster. I would like to know more about the characters.

Among all the garbage I watched this year, this When it Rains in LA was definitely not bad. Not sure about the budget, but it was better than nosferatu, cause I don't need to watch special effects unless I am playing video games. It had a story that actually made sense enough to keep me looking back at it. If Timothy Chalamet was in it, it could be a 9/10. But I give the new young actors credit, so even though I would like to give a 6, I will make it a 7, cause maybe one of them will be in some big series soon. Who knows? I see the potential, but definitely could have been done more interesting. Overall though it had me 50% into it, I wanted to know...

Watching When It Rains in LA feels less like a cinematic experience and more like stumbling onto a college film project that somehow made it to streaming. From the first scene, it's clear: this is not a professional production. The acting is wooden at best, with line deliveries so flat and forced you'd think the cast met the script five minutes before cameras rolled. Emotional moments fall completely flat, often provoking confusion or second-hand embarrassment rather than empathy.

The cinematography doesn't help. Scenes are lit like a YouTube vlog, with shaky camera work and awkward framing that constantly pulls you out of the story-what little of it exists. There's no visual style, no cohesion, and no sense that anyone behind the camera had a plan beyond just hitting "record."

You have to LIKE THRILLERS. I never write reviews, but this film kept me curious. You will either like it, not like it, or fall somewhere in the middle. But that is what makes a movie interesting. How it hits everyone differently. Right?

Compared to other Thrillers, this one at least keeps you thinking. The acting was above average compared to studios with overpaid talent, this one kept me wondering about what I was going to see next.

But I am giving higher rating because of the music, it kept me in the right mood, and while the story ran a little quickly, it still kept its feel from beginning to end. If you were looking for a horror, it's not quite there, but a thriller for sure with a drama attached to it.
