Kiss Me will tear your heart in pieces.

Films with a lesbian theme are often designed to make you root for the women in love, without any reservations. You are certain of the pair from the beginning. Imagine Me and You, a classic movie of this theme, even has you rooting for a marriage to end and an innocent man's heart to be broken.

Kiss Me doesn't romanticize the struggle these people go through. It shows the love, the passion and, most importantly, the pain. The pain of denying who you are and the pain of being betrayed and losing who you thought you were going to spend your life with. Because Kiss Me doesn't take these things lightly, my heart was breaking for each of the characters. As the story progresses with beauty and grace and without the rushed feeling of many love at first sight type movies, Mia starts to realize that there is only one way. Despite the sacrifices and the pain, there is one thing she has to do - And I bet you will find yourself realizing it with her.

Apart from the story being told with grace, beauty and a passion for every single character, the film is beautifully shot in the amazing scenery of the Scandinavian countries. An instant classic in movies with a lesbian theme, but a must see for everyone with a for romantic movies.

YES, undoubtedly this is the one of the best romantic, emotional, touchy movie I have ever seen in my life.Amazing performance by Mia and Frida, magnificent landscape of Sweden and fluency and realness in every scene made me impatient, excited and happy throughout the film.The film is not just about a love story between two woman, it is also struggle for today's people who believe in true love.

On the one side Mia (Ruth Vega Fernandez) is a bit shy with Frida as normally at the beginning in their relationship.But after seeing honesty, warmth, sincerity in Frida's eyes, she began to look differently and gave her love for the Frida especially with her spectacular eyes.

On the other side Frida( Liv Mjönes) draws a character who is not afraid of being seen by everyone for her love for woman and she was also insistent about the possibility of a real love between tho woman.Moreover she also abandoned from her girlfriend and expected it from Mia in the same way.For this reason we see many Fridas in our today's world.

To sum up, love is everywhere and can be in every way and no one prevent it in real life.

I loved this film. It is beautiful and brave, with great Swedish actresses (and actors).

I suppose the story is quite "cliché" but that's nothing you think of while watching it, at all. The film is very emotionally intense. And again, the performance from the actresses, Ruth Vega Fernandez and Liv Mjönes is amazing.

There's also a lot of parts that you can relate to (straight or gay) and that's very positive. As it is touching in many ways you do also get a few good laughs on the way! :)

(Can also add that I adore where the setting take place. Especially because I've been to them places myself. One scene is shot at my school which of course makes it funnier to watch)

Anyhow, I strongly recommend you to watch it, it won't leave you unaffected..

I don't see how anyone could rate this movie poorly. It had a great plot and great actors. Too many times have I seen movies like this and they always turn out bad so it was great to see one that didn't follow the majority. Personally I found the actress that played Mia amazingly talented. She is able to show every emotion just through her big beautiful eyes. Throughout the movie her face would be devoid of any expression but her eyes showed everything. It was great. The only reason I gave a 9 out of 10 is because I speak English so I had to read subtitles and that takes away a bit from the greatness of the movie. I recommend it highly and you won't be disappointed.

Cons: English subtitles

Pros: Ruth Vega Fernandez (Mia) was exceptional. The playfulness between Mia and Frida. Basically everything was great about the movie. Even the cute kid brother Oskar and the fiancé.

Yes, yes, it follows the somewhat predictable story line of girl meets girl, girl falls in love with girl, girl is in denial, and girls end up together; but the movie was a lot more than just a lesbian love story.

The family dynamic for starters, the father-daughter estranged relationship, all the secrets the family carries along, it reminds me of "The Village" where these group of people live a somewhat unrealistic peaceful and violence free environment, but nonetheless reality sets in and the inevitable happens.

Life long journeys are never easy, and they are what they are - sometimes you will try to pretend it is not there screaming at your face, but it will be short lived... Mia is the example in this movie, and so is her father, who has to find within himself the courage to pick up the pieces of a recent past in order to mend his relationship with his daughter.

Growing up has nothing to do with age.

Besides a great story, I have to commend the director for her choice of location - the landscape is extremely bucolic, and inviting; also the soundtrack with songs from Swedish band Kultiration.. Super!!!
