Love & Debt

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.

Love and Debt tackles a lot of familiar issues with humor and heart. The central issue of debt expands out to the lies/half truths it breeds, intimacy issues necessarily follow and a family trying to negotiate the "normal" growing pains of time and age ruptures at the seams. But we get to see the other side of the coin through the debt collectors eyes (wow, collections callers are people too? Who knew???) which adds a lovely surreal absurdist kind of take on this whole bizarre system of money and "success." Filled with engaging performances, the film strikes the perfect balance of laughter and sincere depth.

This movie was a fart. Everyone except the dad was a horrible actor, the characters reactions to things didn't make sense half the time, and it was honestly just boring

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.
