Rhapsody of Love

It is refreshing to go to the cinema and watch a rom-com with such charm and character, and one that acknowledges and represents contemporary Australia in the storytelling. The story begins with a wedding, and follows the lives and loves of four very different couples. While the couples all face different challenges, their stories come together beautifully in Hopwood's script to present resolutions that are meaningful as well as happy. The movie is billed as the first Asian-Australian rom-com; it is the first Australian movie to have Asian-Australian leads. The challenges are not necessarily unique to Asian-Australians - we see the characters in relatable situations, and are drawn into their stories. I like that the story included a short film competition, the realities of living with anxiety, someone madly trying to finish their PhD and wanting to become a writer, and finding success with dreams of careers in the creative sector. Beautifully written and with great talent, I highly recommend it.

You'd never think this film was shot amidst Covid and in only a couple of weeks. Refreshing to see rom-coms featuring Asians and 'mixed race' couples with an entertaining cast and script and makes this movie realistic. The photography, directing and acting is outstanding. I look forward to seeing more productions from Joy House.

Rhapsody of Love is one of my favourite Romantic Movies I have seen, the storyline is beautiful, unique and not to mention stunning cinematography! The first Asian Australian Romantic film ! So exciting, all the actors did an amazing job! This is a must see film. Congrats to Joy Hopwood and her team.

When the movie started, I thought it was a joke, probably the worst acting and screen writing I've ever seen. I can't get my head around how this movie has 7.6/10 rating like what! We were 6 in the whole theater and we just were blown away that this movie is even in theater. Please don't charge people for this stuff, do better :)

This is a tender tale between two realistic, grounded characters who have their hearts on their sleeves. In fact, that's what makes this movie shine, seeing characters who love what they do, whether it's photography, baking or fitness. Stunning cinematography, lots of genuine moments and plenty of laughs.
