Love & Debt

The movie is about a big family full of f..ups. Everybody are just screaming and yelling at each others from beginning to end. Who makes this kind of crap? Are they even human? Terrible acting. High score rating is obviously from friends of the cast and crew. Absolute rubbish try another career honestly because this isn't for you.

This movie is about struggling with situations, personal limits and issues avoided or ignored within the family. It's also an opportunity to see things from an insider perspective, without passing thru all of it. For those who's looking for a fun movie, this is not the one. It's a fiction movie, where real life situations are represented in an unhappy way, like it actually is: the family suffers, broken people go wrong ways, kids suffers and are forced to grow. The plot happens inside a family. If you're still reading this, this movie can be entertaining and inspiring. An invitation to hope in this broken world we live in. It's a fiction movie with real life lessons learnt.

As a fan of real issues portrayed in movies, where families experience the highs and lows of modern life and its challenges, I found Love & Debt very engaging.

The script is well written and the actors do a fine job of drawing you into their world and their emotional journey. It is indeed true that we all now live far beyond our means, swimming in debt, and ready to dismiss or abuse those trying to collect. The most important things in life are family and happiness. Be satisfied with where you are and what you have, but keep working at it because every day presents a new possibility to ruin or success... this story shows it well.

If you are a fan of The Story of Us, Parenthood and other similar takes on the struggles of raising a family, then you should enjoy this film. Not sure why the low rating. I couldn't fault the movie (and I watch hundreds each year)! Sit back with your partner, after the kids are asleep and enjoy the emotional rollercoaster of Love & Debt.

I was moved by this indie about a family fighting to find their way back to one another when debt splits them apart. You'll likely find the humanity reflected between the people who owe money and those going after them as interesting as I did. I found the mother daughter relationship especially touching and was particularly impressed by the teen daughter's acting skills. A good watch, I recommend it.

Overall it was an ok movie, not bad and not good either, just ok. But it could have been so much better, like lots of other American movies it couldn't decide if it wanted to be a comedy or a drama. Too bad because it was so boring at times. And then this debt collector character, so unrealistic, so soft.
