I Love You Both

There isn't anything good to comment on. No connection with any character, no humor, nothing that kept my interest. No deeper meaning after painfully watching till the end. If you need background noise while working. This would be it.

I'm typically very skeptical about films where the writer/director uses it as a vehicle to showcase their acting...because there isn't usually much of the latter to highlight. "I love you both" (the title being a little uninspired) appears to be a collaboration between real-life siblings, and maybe due to the characters being written specifically for them, the script really works. There is a definitely chemistry and appeal between the two leads and their "love interest". The dialogue does fall on the banal side (meaning a lot of it is what you would expect from bored millennials chatting...which is just boring), but some of it also really hits the mark and gives us a glimpse into the motivations of the characters...but there's just too little of that. What we are mostly left with is a "slice of life" in the POV of two likeable, but not very interesting people who happen to be siblings attracted to the same person. That's it. No action, no profound message or anything really substantive. Again, this is a good first try for these actors/writers/directors and I really hope their abilities do get noticed here.

Where to begin. The characters were for the most part hard to look at, as if they searched out unattractive actors. On top of that the main character was hard to understand as she spoke so fast. I don't know why I kept watching it but I did until the end and it never got better. So many glitches in the plot and direction I cannot recall them all.

lame movie. legit had to skip through it sucks because the characters were likable and it had promise. it just dragged on a lot and really there was nothing redeeming about it at all in the end. just don't watch it, save your time, you're gonna think its gonna be good because its indie and cutsie and reminds you of movies that are much, much better.

don't do it.

This was a film designed to explore the co-dependent relationship between twins who struggled to have relationships with others other than themselves. It succeeded beautifully in that regard. The characters were eccentric and awkward in an interesting way, and I found myself liking them both and craving more. Not the standard Hollywood stereotypes. Rather, people you would really want to be friends with. Some reviewers complained about the one dimensional quality of their mutual love interest. I believe such discussion is misplaced in that it was the intent to focus on the bond between the brother and sister, and he was just a vehicle to accomplish this task. Many of the supporting actors were also noteworthy. The mother, the music "manager" and the best friend were exceptional, and provided deadpan and subtle humor of the highest caliber. Brilliantly done Doug. Thank you.
