I Love You Both

If this movie does anything, it presents a brother-sister-same boyfriend "story" with every cliche you cam imagine. The script is weak, the characters are not likable, and not communicate with each other. It just frustrated the hell out of me.

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.

If you are seeking a Jerry Springer-type relationship film with drunken fist fights, or a film where everything is neatly tied up, HEA, and you don't have to think at all and have everything spoon fed to you in goobs of cliches, look elsewhere. If you want to watch a sweet, charming, original film that proves blood is thicker than water, this is it. A wonderfully funny film about twin interdependence and the issues related to it. All three lead characters are delightful and interesting. The ending is sublime.

I appreciate the artistic perspestive in this film, and its fresh storyline, but I have to say this movie left me feeling confused and frustrated that I spent that much time investing in the storyline for little payoff. It's unrealistic that the characters wouldn't follow up with the 'dramatic' ending of their relationship with Andy, and that Andy wasn't even really a character much at all. We know nothing about any of these people the ENTIRE movie. The main characters are expressionless and very hard to watch on screen because of the lack on intrigue and character. Donny has ZERO personality...It makes the viewer really frustrated to not know any backstory to a character. Andy was just a quirky guy, no substance, no background... no follow up. I'm sorry but I'd suggest not watching this movie.

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.
