LOCO LOVE is predictable fun. It is one of those films that after the first ten minutes, you know where it is going, and how it is going to end. This is a straight forward story that goes from point A to point B with very few twists along the way. Boy meets Girl. Boy and Girl hate each other. Boy and Girl love each other. Boy and Girl break off their relationship. Boy and Girl get back together. Fortunately there are enough fun scenes along the way to make the journey worth taking.
The beginning starts out a bit shaky with a jerky exposition and an incredibly bad mustache. It is apparent that this film was made on a very low budget. I thought I was going to hate this film. However, the story slowly became endearing. It's a Taming of the Shrew meets Trading Places kind of story.
The story was hampered by the producer/director trying to be too politically correct. The relationship between Donald and Cat also seemed a bit rushed, but it worked well enough keep my interest. What made this film entertaining was the cast of character actors and the little one-liners they were given.
While LOCO LOVE is not great entertainment, it is good enough to nuke some popcorn, curl up on the couch and watch this awkward, silly romantic comedy.

You can't really judge this movie for being too authentic. It's sort of a classic story genre, dating back to Taming of The Shrew from Shakespeare, but it's obviously no Shakespeare. Classic story, a firebrand woman who no man in their right mind would marry, gets married to a man through ulterior motives, but eventually they find love.
Acting is wooden, there's no real conflicts or sparks between the characters. And the movie does get a little draggy during the last half hour. But don't take it too seriously.

Well, the movie is entertaining if you want to see how low can an acting quality sink.
The main male lead - astonishingly horrible :(. But it does support the theory that having good looks will get you already half the way: in his case into a bad comedy with horrible cast.
The female lead - i know that she can even act though not in this particular movie - how did she ever end up in such a production??!
Rest of the cast - .. no comments.
This movie is a must for every wannabe-actor/actress for learning what should they avoid in the future.
2/10 - generous score

I rented several movies in the last week (slow/rest week) and this is the only one I enjoyed. Sorry, sadly, and an indication of how bad movies have gotten I guess?
The other movies I rented were Ultraviolet, The Last Drop, Denny Decker, Waterborne, Green River Killer, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Mesmerized, Sound of Thunder, and Around the Bend. Quite a difference in genres, so you can't say that is the problem!
At least this movie was about people and not things. Sure it had a lot of problems, but it is hard to fit such a long story into an hour and a half or whatever. And it was funny! For example: "Look, there are plenty of branches left that will hold you!" (When branch broke when guy was trying to hang himself.)
C'mon, lighten up everyone, I bet the next movie from this production company will shine!
