Jovi & Lou

Part The Seventh Seal, part Miracle Workers, and part Book of Jo (but a hell of a lot funnier,) this is a fast and funny indie comedy with a lot of charm and quirk to it. Definitely worth watching if you're looking for something fun and off the beaten path!

Victoria Strange offers a stand-out performance here, and. Trevor Van Uden is clearly having a lot of as her counterpart. The back and forth between God and Satan here adds a refreshing twist to a story we're all familiar with.

And at only 77 minutes, the film doesn't overstay its welcome, which is a refreshing change of pace in an era of long movies! Definitely worth a watch!

Really enjoyed this indie comedy about navigating difficult moral decisions in a world replete with competing world views. Liked the main actor and actress who played the couple hit with unfair misfortune. In many ways, this seemed like a play put to the screen. Not only was this due to the set designs but also the acting style and dialogue had that stage-play feel to it.

This is the kind of film some will like and some will hate since it's about competing ideologies but also draws no hard and fast conclusions aside from human nature being largely egotistic and trivial.

I enjoyed this film largely because it's a window into the mind of a single creator rather than a commercial machine.

You get this movie.

Our main character is on a mission from God (and/or maybe someone else) to save his dying wife's life by carrying out some unsavory tasks, but that's just the setup, this is a comedy after all. There's a ton of biblical humor with sound effects and musical cues to remind you to lighten up. I was impressed by the amount of unique locations the filmmakers managed to get. There are some fun exchanges between Jovi and Lou which hint at the vast amount of history these two have together, like 6000 years or so. Jesus was a highlight every time he came back. ;-P.

Don't miss out on this one.

I will admit, I've always been a sucker for a kind of Faustian bargain. The immortals in this story, Jovi (God) and Lou (Satan) make their big, macro moves... while we little humans, just like the characters in this story, try to figure out how to move between the two deified poles. Sure, we all think we want to move towards the "good." But as this movie beautifully illustrates, life -- and stories -- are always more interesting when there's pull from both the good and the bad sides of life. The film "Jovi & Lou" has that push-pull tension, which creates some of the drama. But just to be clear, this movie is a lot of fun, too. Funny and fun! I was with the story from start to finish. I won't give away what happens, but if you check this movie out you're in for an interesting and entertaining ride!

Jovi and Lou is a hip, oddball flick that pits Satan against God. The plot centers around Satan's offer to cure a man's wounded wife, in exchange for him taking out three random folks.

The movie is a riot, packed with plenty of funny moments that will leave you in stitches. The screenplay is pure gold, seamlessly shifting gears from comedy to more supernatural scenes. It's no easy feat, but the writers hit the nail on the head. The movie dives deep into weighty themes like ethics, faith, and the nature of good versus evil.

The lead actors are dynamite, bringing their A-game to the table. Satan is one hell of a charmer, while God is the model of morality. Both characters leave an indelible impression on the viewer, a testament to the strength of the acting. The man caught in the middle of the infernal duo's game is also convincingly played, eliciting a real emotional connection with the audience.

The production values are top-notch, from the sharp cinematography to the vibrant soundtrack. Every aspect of the movie has been crafted to perfection, resulting in a polished, professional final product.

All in all, Jovi and Lou is an offbeat, sassy gem of a film that showcases the best of supernatural comedy. If you're looking for something that stands out from the pack, then this movie is a must-watch.
