Love, Brooklyn

Watched at the 2025 Sundance Film Festival.

Despite a good chemistry between the two main leads, this is one of those mid movies and it's a shame that it's just decent. Indie romance flicks are joints I enjoy as simple settings but expressing with interesting themes, discussions and moments of romance is a good exploration of how life goes on, message to lovers, and what romance is like.

Yet, this movie doesn't feel impactful. Rather the writing feels too thin, the music soundtrack wasn't great, and some of the production feels too fake which makes it feel like a theater play. This aspects are moments I didn't like.

I do respect the filmmaker tho. Cause I did like how the romance was shown without stereotypes, filled with two likable characters and a good sense of cuteness and Brooklyn vibes. I just wish there was more meat to it.
