Rosalina

The movie was funny and somehow cute, but unfortunately the scenario was so flat and predictable, the writers should have make it a bit complicated and add some twists instead of inserting some bad jokes to the boring scenes. There are not much to watch really, but the budget of the movie seems high; the decoration and furniture along with the other stuff like customs looked not cheap,some scenes were like a piece of art. The conservative clothing was suitable for children viewing, but the kisses were too many.

The main character was cute and pretty in this movie, her performance was very good and likable. But the story itself needs some improvements.

It was different from that what I've seen in the last few months, first I didn't know what I can expect from a movie like this. With the short playing time of 90 minutes, I didn't expect that much story and it was the exact amount of story for the time. No useless stretched story and a clear endpoint. Overall was the story something else, it was modern and fresh but the choice of music was a little bit too modern in my opinion. Another point of my criticism is that acting. I love Kaitlyn Dever and enjoyed her performance in Dopesick. In that movie, she wasn't bad but for me, she felt a little bit misplaced in the role. It didn't fit that well in my opinion. But overall a solid movie you can watch if you need something refreshing.

Rosaline was a modern and refreshing take on Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet" with overall great acting, good directing, stunning costumes, and beautiful sets and locations. Kaitlyn Dever delivered such a compelling and amusing performance as Rosaline, I would love to watch a more serious and mature version of this film with her as the main character. Even though the screenplay was extremely modern-day in tone, it was also both astoundingly satirical and witty. If this movie was made in the 2000's, it certainly would have been a big hit. I am quite sure teens and young adults (intended target audience) will still enjoy their time watching it.

I really loved watching Kaitlyn's dry and physical comedy. She was so watchable and so many hilarious expressions and gestures that weren't in the script, I just enjoyed seeing how she was going to interpret each scene! And Sean (Dario) was great too, enough humility mixed into the confidence that made him likeable and his feelings believable. I really enjoyed watching this silly interpretation of the timeless earnestness of teenage love. Shakespeare's R&J was also a comedy up until people started dying, I like how this film took the comedic and relatable aspects of the story through someone that wasn't so blindly swept up in the drama. Everything I look for in a romantic comedy!

A lite affair which is loaded with sheer cuteness. The leads are adequate as actors. It's a nice twist on a old tale. The use of modern day colloquial dialog is a nice touch. Nice pacing. Flows really well. Story doesn't drag for a minute. Not a theater release worthy, so having this go straight to HULU is actually the best place to play this film. A nice premise which is managed as well as it could. Turn off your brain and enjoy. Plus Shooter McGavin is in this film. How could you possibly go wrong? 😆 😆 😆 😆.

Watch this on a nice, rainy fall day and you will be glad you did. Not a 10 out of 10 but it's worth watching.
