Will & Liz (2018) User Reviews

So terrible

[iranzaminbnd · 1/10 · 8 June 2019]

It was very missed I'm bored And very weak In all aspects

Well rounded, highly relatable whirlwind romance story. 9/10

[NickMondoMedia · 9/10 · 16 May 2018]

Classic whirlwind romance story, reminiscent of Before Sunset / Before Sunrise, and also Lost in Translation. Will & Liz accurately captures the way a city can come to life when you have a significant other to share it with. Will & Liz are awkward at first, but then grow on each other and on the audience as a sweet and often painful romance blossoms, falters, rebounds, etc. This is the timelessness of love, beautifully portrayed.

Definitely worth the watch.

This is a darling of a film. Relatable characters with Los Angeles as a backdrop, I think you really invest in their romance and are easily charmed by this gem of a film. Definitely recommend!!

A must see romantic love story

[johnapplebee-95947 · 8/10 · 6 January 2019]

A good romantic love story with of course some drama in it. The cinematography made it feel so real. Two people still trying to figure out what they want out of life come together to start a relationship and make it all work out. I'm glad I found this movie on amazon

Charming Indie Romance

[JGReviews · 9/10 · 27 July 2019]

Will & Liz is a charming indie romance about, well, Will and Liz's relationship in Venice Beach, California. First off, I have to say that the locations and cinematography are really enjoyable, showing off many of the gorgeous landmarks of Venice. If you've ever been then you'll recognize some of the famous iconography that is the ideal setting for this story. Secondly, the two leads are quite good in their roles and the actors and director deserve some praise. The story was reminiscent a bit of Before Sunrise and that series of films, which I mean as a huge compliment to this little indie gem. If you're in the mood for a quality indie romance with some beautiful cinematography and locations then give Will & Liz a shot!

Great indie love story!

[directortim2012 · 9/10 · 27 July 2019]

An unconventional and thoroughly enjoyable movie. This is a love story for people who don't want to sit through another predictable rom-com. It's a film where the characters feel lived in and real, and yet have a genuine charm to them. I really wanted the characters to be together. Great acting, really well shot. I truly loved this film!

A carefree glimpse at modern love

[alexanderhanno · 8/10 · 30 December 2018]

Indie through and through, Will & Liz presents two colorful, wishful and artistic characters still in the midst of searching for what they want out of life. The film presents their story via a number of casual strolls through Venice, offering up some nice backdrops for their conversations about life, love and the future. Given there is little conflict to be found, the film itself tends to feel like one of the casual strolls it's titular characters embark on: warm, bright and carefree, with a few minor bumps along the way. Overall, it calls to mind Before Sunrise, albeit on a micro-budget, and proves a stroll worth taking!

A Fun Watch

[vigilant56 · 8/10 · 27 July 2019]

I'm go all in for love stories because when written well I can always put myself in the characters and the writer of Will & Liz doesn't disappoint. You will want to take the journey with these characters as they discover what they want out of life while going through real life trials and tribulations. Two thumbs up.

A quite enjoyable and lovely rom-com

[cbax123 · 8/10 · 5 August 2019]

The film uses simplicity to it's advantage and really lets the audience live In the relationship of its two main characters without much distraction or complication. The two main actors had a natural chemistry and it shined through in their interactions together. What the film may lack in budget it makes up for in honesty and heart.

Lovely Love Story

[TheAll-SeeingI · 8/10 · 27 July 2019]

I am definitely drawn to indie romances in which simplicity and complexity run side-by-side. And I love Southern California beach communities - perhaps even more than indie romances, if you can believe that. So I must've been an easy mark for the homespun Venice Beach love story that is "Will & Liz."

Listen, you: If you're out there name-checking "indie" only because it makes you sound savvy and erudite and above your own mindless self-relegation to mass-market blockbusters and stadium acts, then you're not alone. But if that's the case and the true love isn't actually there for you, then you may not appreciate the terrific heart and story plotting - executed on a shrewdly allocated budget - that rests deep within the beating heart of this indie love tale. There is a calming energy and a gentle embrace of the artistic muse (and indeed of love itself) happening in this film; something that all the gaffer tape in the world doesn't always buy on a Hollywood set. The doe-eyed Christine Tucker in the lead female role - you guessed it, "Liz" - was more than a tad special and surely pulled out of the ether (unbeknownst to me, Tucker is probably world famous by now). She meets Will, played by Nathan Wilson, who like Liz hasn't found his firm footing on life's true paths yet.

As simple as love can be in its essence, we all know it's complicated. Those counterpoints push and pull against each other with terrific results in Will & Liz. Embrace it and then love it for what it is: A very wonderfully-conceived, well-executed indie romance film that speaks our truths about love.

Well executed indie romance

[Ink789 · 9/10 · 6 August 2019]

Camera work, locations, the romance itself, and the locations were all outstanding. Takes place all around Venice Beach, CA and made me want to travel there immediately. A fun modern romance, that was really well done.
