I honestly think that those that took the time to write these poor reviews and rate it 3 or 4 or all the "1s" are out of pure spite. Folks that couldn't handle a new take on things and Billy Porter being the fairy godmother just for one example. I bet 90% of them didnt even watch it. I feel sorry for people with that much hate in thier heart. I had a blast with it and was a fun fun movie. If you enjoy a good musical and have Prime watch it for yourself and decide!
I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that almost all of the low ratings and reviews are disgruntled folks that felt that they should not have to pay extra for a movie on their precious Disney +. This movie was always going to be in theaters first as a likely blockbuster then Blu-ray and digital "then" maybe a year later it would have ended up on Disney +. Add in the fact that the lead Lou Yifei was the subject of a boycott attempt because of statements she made regarding the unrest in Hong Kong and you have a recipe for unhappy pandemic reviews. Most of these might have not even actually watched the movie.
I found the movie to be extremely well done. It was powerful and uplifting. Go in to it with an open mind and you will likely enjoy it as much as I did. Seeing Donnie Yen & Jet Li was also cool. Have fun folks!
I had been waiting for quite some time for this movie to become available. As a hug fan of most all the cast members I was hoping the film would deliver. I am happy to report that is does indeed. I found the film to reflect all the hard work and love that it is obvious was poured in it by Anton King the director and the cast. The chemistry between Dichen Lachman and Fran Kranz is wonderful. Fans of "Dollhouse" will of course be thrilled to see former cast members reunited for this project. Miracle Laurie gives a wonderful performance as does Enver Gjokaj. Add in a dash of Felicia Day and how can you go wrong right? I have already watched Lust for Love twice now and I enjoyed it even more the second viewing. I recommend seeking this film out. Its perfect timing for a watch over Valentines Day single or otherwise!
