Love on a Leash

I can say without a shred of sarcasm that this was a very memorable viewing experience. Can I honestly say that this is because Love on a Leash is a good film? No. Love on a Leash is a dumpster fire. From a technical aspect, this film is complete failure. However, due to its sheer ineptitude and batshit story this film is a genuine stand out. Say what you will, all criticisms are most likely valid. But at least Love on a Leash is memorable, which is more than I can say about a majority of major studio releases.

Love on a leash is quite possibly the most fantastically confusing film you will ever watch, there is no possibility of describing the film in full to anyone as for the most part it makes close to no sense, making the Room seem on a similar level of filmmaking to the Godfather. However I feel a solid performance from Alvin Flang saves this film and helps it to score high as well as the soundtrack really bringing extra feel to an experience that cannot be described in any way, if you haven't seen it, just watch it, you'll need mental councilling post-watch but it's worth it.

John Cage, Schoenberg, Stockhausen can all be heard as underlying influences in this magnificent soundtrack, the music in this film adds so much subtlety and nuance to an already highly emotional motion picture. A complete masterpiece!

In a world where Hollywood is dominated by white men, it's refreshing to see a woman making a film like love on a leash. This piece of cinema is many things but I assure you it is never boring. Think "The Shape of Water" with a touch of "The Shaggy Dog" although Love on a Leash surpasses both in scope, sound design and writing alone. If I could give it 11 stars I would. This film touches on so many important political issues, which is a bold move in a world where rom coms are designed to be safe and non confrontational, Love On a Leash doesn't shy away from some of the uglier facts of life, which only makes the love between Lisa and her dog Alvin Flang (or Prince) that much more heartfelt. I showed this movie to my girlfriend and she became my wife 40 minutes into the movie. It's that good. I highly recommend it. You will laugh you will cry and you'll be taken on an unforgettable emotional roller coaster.

It's a comedy and I honestly can't remember the last time I've laughed so much at a movie, so it completely succeeds in a big way at that.

Don't look up any spoilers, just watch it and I guarantee you'll have a good time, in a weird and unexpected way.
