Love Kills

Honestly I didn't think it was going to be as good as it was going into it. I was just having it play in the background as I worked on abother project. But... I was drawn into it as the story.. The characters are very believable. The onscreen chemistry doesn't feel like it is being acted, these people like one another off screen too.

I give this a solid 8 out 10. A very well done independent lower budget film. Good acting, great story, casting, writing etc. A breath of fresh air compared to all the prequels, sequels, remakes and super hero dribble the film industry keeps pushing on viewers.

I hope to see these talented young people in further films.

It's rare to find small indie films to enjoy, but this was a very interesting little gem. The acting was great and the story kept me engaged throughout as it had constant changes that up the ante needed to keep me interested in finishing and I am glad I did because it was a fun ride filled with smiles, awes, and jaw-dropping moments.

The lead girls did a really good job, and so did the guy who played Lia's boyfriend. In fact, the whole cast did a really good job. There was just enough balance between them all to make me recommend this film.

The music was nicely blended and not overly done like so many other films.

It just felt really realistic and like something you would see in real life, which was nice for a change from the standard formula films that rarely ever feel real.

I say go and watch it where it's available. I saw it on Apple TV.

The film for the first two acts wasn't awful for a very low budget indie. The three leads were cute and acted well enough to carry the basic story. It almost felt like Summer Lovers from long ago without Greece. To be honest that's where the movie should have gone. Summer's over no more fooling around. Of course, the narrative had a completely different slant which was harder to pull off. The 3rd act unraveled, and flaws in story, acting, character, effects, etc. Surfaced. I did finish it, so it earned 3 stars. I'd like to see what the future holds for the three leads, and director.

Love Kills is an extraordinary film that beautifully intertwines romance and suspense in a way that keeps you on the edge of your seat from start to finish. For an independent film, this movie is very well done and captivates you from the very first scene with its stunning cinematography and musical score that perfectly complements the intense emotions of the characters.

The storyline explores the complexities of love, betrayal, and redemption, delivering plot twists that are shocking and deeply satisfying. Lead actors Gia Brooks, Lucy Diamante, and Maximilian Seed deliver performances that are raw, powerful, and deeply moving. You can feel every ounce of passion, fear, joy, and determination in their portrayals, making their characters incredibly relatable and compelling.

The direction by Duke is superb. Each scene is well paced and crafted to build tension and emotion - and keep the audience guessing - making it impossible to look away. The visual style is unique and hauntingly beautiful, and adds an extra layer of depth to an already rich narrative.

This is a film that will leave you thinking long after the credits roll, and it's definitely one you'll want to watch again.

In conclusion, the blend of romance, suspense, and drama in just the right amounts makes Love Kills a powerful and unforgettable experience. It is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates films that challenge the mind and touch the heart.

While "Love Kills" is undeniably a love story, it also serves as a meditation on the concept of losing oneself in the moment. The film encourages viewers to embrace the uncertainty of love, reminding us that while it can be exhilarating, it can also lead to profound pain. Though the film has its share of clichés, it manages to rise above them through its authentic portrayal of love's complexities. The director did a phenomenal job creating and capturing crucial moments stepping the viewer into the lives of Gaia and Lucy's characters being both relatable and compelling causing you to become lost with them through their imprudent decisions.
