Love Kills

I came across this randomly on Amazon through recommendations, so I decided to watch it after watching the trailer.

I am fairly picky but I do like to watch smaller indie films to get away from the glitz and glam in Hollywood, and I was surprised to find myself really engaged.

The story is fairly simple, a new girl moves into a couple's apartment and when the guy leaves for a while the girls ends up becoming friends and eventually lovers. I think what I liked the most was the natural approach, the dialogue felt real and flowed naturally and the relationship with the girls had a lot of cuteness to it. With most indie films they tend to write poor dialogue and the acting is rarely any good, but here both the writing and acting felt real. Like I could see myself knowing these people in real life.

It also had a few twists and turns I didn't expect which was nice. Over all, I found myself really enjoying it. I think others will too. Check it out.

It's rare to find small indie films to enjoy, but this was a very interesting little gem. The acting was great and the story kept me engaged throughout as it had constant changes that up the ante needed to keep me interested in finishing and I am glad I did because it was a fun ride filled with smiles, awes, and jaw-dropping moments.

The lead girls did a really good job, and so did the guy who played Lia's boyfriend. In fact, the whole cast did a really good job. There was just enough balance between them all to make me recommend this film.

The music was nicely blended and not overly done like so many other films.

It just felt really realistic and like something you would see in real life, which was nice for a change from the standard formula films that rarely ever feel real.

I say go and watch it where it's available. I saw it on Apple TV.

The film for the first two acts wasn't awful for a very low budget indie. The three leads were cute and acted well enough to carry the basic story. It almost felt like Summer Lovers from long ago without Greece. To be honest that's where the movie should have gone. Summer's over no more fooling around. Of course, the narrative had a completely different slant which was harder to pull off. The 3rd act unraveled, and flaws in story, acting, character, effects, etc. Surfaced. I did finish it, so it earned 3 stars. I'd like to see what the future holds for the three leads, and director.

This movie has its moments for a indi film, but that alone doesn't mean it gets more praise then its worth.

The actors do pretty well and the flick is shot pretty decent for its budget, its definitely the writing were I have some problems.

Lia and Brianna's so called "interment romantic love" was legitimately no better than a week long fling that two people in highschool would have when one or anothers other half wasn't looking.

Both characters were written like highschoolers in a adult world which is pretty unbelievable.

Milo's character was obvious, while he goes to some pretty big extremes the outcome of the whole situation was predictable.

The demographic for this movie would definitely have to be mid to late teens as the title for this review pretty much somes it up.

While "Love Kills" is undeniably a love story, it also serves as a meditation on the concept of losing oneself in the moment. The film encourages viewers to embrace the uncertainty of love, reminding us that while it can be exhilarating, it can also lead to profound pain. Though the film has its share of clichés, it manages to rise above them through its authentic portrayal of love's complexities. The director did a phenomenal job creating and capturing crucial moments stepping the viewer into the lives of Gaia and Lucy's characters being both relatable and compelling causing you to become lost with them through their imprudent decisions.
