Long Live Love!

The performances in the film are exceptional, with the cast delivering nuanced and emotionally resonant portrayals. The narrative unfolds gradually and builds towards a climactic finale. The chemistry between the actors is palpable as if they have been doing and acting with each other for a long time: Namo, Meta, Sati, and Peach with superb acting. Direk Mook is a master storyteller and directed the film with finesse and sensitivity. She balanced the heavy drama with many moments of humor and tenderness, giving us - the viewers an emotional rollercoaster ride. I watched the movie three times, and if given another chance in my country, I would still watch it.

The film also sheds light on the collateral damage of Sati's lifestyle through the eyes of Namo, his 15-year-old daughter. Namo is a character wise beyond her years, bearing the weight of a lifetime of unfulfilled promises. Her journey becomes a poignant exploration of the impact a parent's choices can have on a child, and her resilience becomes a beacon of hope in the face of adversity.

The narrative takes an unexpected turn when Sati, faced with the impending collapse of his family, begins a soul-searching journey of redemption. The transformation of his character is portrayed with authenticity and depth, allowing the audience to empathize with his struggles and cheer for his path to self-discovery.

"Long Live Love" is not just a story about the breakdown of a family; it's a powerful exploration of the human capacity for change and the enduring strength of love. The film skillfully balances moments of heart-wrenching drama with touches of humor, making it a well-rounded and emotionally resonant cinematic experience.

Director deserves commendation for crafting a visually stunning film that captures the emotional nuances of each character. The cinematography beautifully complements the emotional depth of the story, creating a visually engaging narrative that keeps the audience captivated from start to finish.

In conclusion, "Long Live Love" is a thought-provoking and heartwarming film that navigates the complexities of relationships with grace and sincerity. Anchored by stellar performances, a compelling storyline, and expert direction, it is a must-watch for anyone who appreciates a moving exploration of love, redemption, and the enduring strength of the human spirit.

Casting is very nice everyone deliver their role well and when the movie announce its release with Becky her fans go crazy but... This movie doesn't make sense at all considering that Namo looks only few age younger than her parents. 15 years old Namo doesn't fit the role for Becky if it's possible then it's either to choose much older main character or younger child that looks 15 years old.

Secondly, what's with the 2 hours and 15 mins long movie. The movie go around the bush and some scene can cut short or they can remove some flashback scene so the movie can deliver well.

The movie doesn't have a proper ending making it hard to know what's happening next. There's no resolution and it's not enough for international viewers to understand what's happening next. Do they file a divorce are they together again?

Somehow I feel that this movie used Becky to attract more viewers/international viewers. But my intentions are pure I just don't understand some aspects of the director. Overall, the movie has an original content though it's just that it's very long and doesn't make sense on characters age but it's enjoyable to watch and if you have a lot of time then try this.

Long Live Love is strongly-acted throughout. I personally love the character of the daughter NAMO. She is simply beautiful work highlighted by Becky's distinct acting. She succeeded on the strength of her acting alone. As someone new in the film industry, she exceeded expectations. It's well done, authentic and natural. While the older actors' calibre in drama and comedy are superstar par excellence. The acting ensemble is top shelf! I also love how it deviates from the usual stories with happy ending. It's what's happening in real life and I'm sure everyone can relate to the story and to each characters.

To be honest, I have my reservations prior watching this movie because I am not really into an international film. But I glad I took the risk, all for the love and support for dear Becky. This is the best foreign film I have ever watched.

Long Live Love is a perfect balance of comedy, love and drama that will hit you down to your core. Every emotion, every scene, and every words uttered were too good and powerful. This movie left me with lots of realization and ofcourse, appreciation. Family is love. Self love is the greatest love.

Becky, what a revelation! You have grown into a very good actress. I felt your every expression of feelings and words. You are perfect for Namo! I love you and I am so proud of you, BB!

10/10 for Long Live Love! 💗
