Loev

I was really curious about this movies but it didn't meet my expectations at all. The problem is that everything, except for the surprisingly good actors, is a problem. The pacing is all wrong, the plot doesn't really go anywhere and there are some sensitive issues that were handled frankly quite poorly.

This is a case where the film's format and style do not quite match the complications of its narrative. It could either have been this immersive, intimate portrait of two people never quite getting on the same boat, all while having this roadtrip... but it was bogged down by messier elements. Sudhansu Saria made a decent debut though, and actors Dhruv Ganesh, Shiv Pandit and Siddharth Menon were fantastic and magnetic on screen.

Sidenote: I am very devastated to learn about Dhruv

I recently watched Loev, and it was a very compelling experience. You get the feeling that you have watched something heartfelt, honest and complex. The film is visually stunning and has great performances by all the cast. It captures the subtle nuances of friendship, love & longing, while its realistic tone and quirky humor make the film very relatable. A must watch for everyone.

This was a beautiful film about love, and the things that look like love but are a little different too. The cinematography is beautiful and the storytelling is rich and unique.

The characters have an emotional depth rarely seen in romantic movies. I found myself simultaneously rooting for them and also hesitantly accepting their flaws. These characters are human in the sense that they are inconsistent and strong and weak and bold and meek like so many humans are. Can't wait to watch it again.

I was looking for this movie everywhere. Finally i got it on Netflix and man what a movie this is. This movie is totally honest to the plot and scenario and it never uses typical stereotypes and clichés regarding homosexuality which is the most refreshing thing about this movie. You really connect with the characters as this is like a piece of life. Throughout the entire movie you will sense both acceptance and denial of the situation which makes it more lifelike. You really sympathize with each of the characters. In the end when you come to know about Dhruv in real life, you are bound to get devastated and feel that ache in your heart. I have never given review to any film regarding homosexuality as i had never thought this kind of honest movie will ever be made. I can seriously watch this movie to the end of the time. Special thanks to the whole crew for this. Please watch this movie to understand how complex human emotions can be.
