Hello I Love You (2018) User Reviews

Unexplainably awkward

[aforbush-03680 · 5/10 · 15 July 2018]

The premise of this movie is interesting and cute but the dialogue, the acting, cinematography and editing are clunky and awkward.

It's possible that this movie - which is about making a reality tv show is a spoof on this type of production and INTENDS to make fun of it by making it bad. I can't tell.

With the exception of a few main actors, the acting is just not good. Every character Seems like it's their first time acting. Ever. It may not actually be possible to act well with the provided dialogue.

I am waiting until the end of the movie to submit this review just in case their is some plot twist that explains why this movie is so exceptionally bad.

Nope.

They said the budget is $100k. I have no idea how they were able to spend that much money on this movie

All 5 of my stars are for the premise. Not the execution.

Scrappy and Wildly Successful

[TheAll-SeeingI · 9/10 · 10 April 2019]

Most film consumers simply should know by now whether or not they're of the kind of audience to appreciate the truly gritty, boot-on-the-ground relentlessness of indie, which often comes at the expense of major studio look and feel (obviously, one would think they'd know where they stand by now). Yet so many are surprised and mock-dismayed when they stumble on production values that don't scream $200 billion blockbuster. It's a truly baffling, recurring phenomenon.

I love the beating heart of indie - the prerequisite perservering nature of the indie filmmaker - so it's no surprise that I found "Hello I Love" you to be right down my fairway. Spoiler alert: Meryl Streep isn't in this film, but lead actress Kabrina Miller is, and she held the film's elements together with great aplomb. Her performance was aided by a strong sense of pace, and comedy that's straight-up, high end funny.

Go out for wine and cheese, and some pseudo-evolved name dropper will most assuredly be overheard extolling the virtues of Kevin Smith's Clerks. He probably fears disclosing the fact that he actually didn't dig it at all, and instead struggled with its homegrown-ness. Hello I Love You is no less deserving of early viewership on the grounds of its content and its relentless execution despite its barriers. It's funny. It tells its story purposefully. And ultimately, it triumphs.

Oh, so close

[Phil_Chester · 30 December 2018]

Oh, so very close to zinging. It's a great idea and there are some wonderful moments, but it just doesn't quite achieve full speed and take off. The lead actress is lovely, but the leading man is not quite right. Overall, a damned good try, and it almost restores your faith in the rom-com.

Great family show!

[becky-51264 · 8/10 · 2 May 2018]

This was a fun story to go with, I appreciated that it was lighthearted and fun. It will appeal to people who are looking for a show they can watch with family and friends of any age.

Quirky and Fun, Lovable Characters, family safe and Romance.

This movie seems to have it all. Nothing offensive, safe for the whole family. Heart warming and funny. Great concept. I haven't seen or heard of this storyline before. It's new and refreshing which is nice. The lead characters have great chemistry. Great film.👍👍👍

Awkwardly Cute

[greenmarie5 · 10/10 · 10 June 2018]

Not sure how I came across this movie but definitely a cute movie. Has some cheesy parts but surprisingly good acting. A rawness and relatable scenes when meeting new people in the dating world. Highly recommend

Funny, Heart Warming, Highly Entertaining! Appropriate for the whole family!

Just a fun, enjoyable film for the whole family. Absolutely nothing offensive in the movie. Leaves you with a good feeling! Can't recommend it enough!

Reality Vs Dating

[truth-96304 · 9/10 · 4 February 2020]

This was a fun watch for me. It was vey cerebral and complex at first, but once you settle in with the characters it all starts to make sense.

It has indie written all over it, but I like seeing indie comedies like this. Reality TV is kind of juxtaposed when it comes to commenting on our dating culture these days. Check it out!
