Really Love

The script writing was not all there we needed more conversations between the love interests but beautiful vignettes of them having a good time and when it came down to it there was no communication between the characters to make the ending land.

I am an classic love story movie watcher.

I can say the producers favorite movie was Love Jones.

I enjoyed moments in the movie but there were so many undeveloped moments that left you wondering. Also there were so many mimics to a classic love movie that can't be rewritten or duplicated in any way.

My desire is our beautiful people to be their own creative geniuses and utilize their own vivid imagination not anyone else's.

This movie popped up on my Netflix watch list. I liked the movie but felt like it was trying too hard to recreate something already done. While watching, I kept getting Love Jones vibes but not as in depth. I like that it was about two black professionals, had positive characters and the backdrop was in DC. I just wished the lead characters were more developed and the ending didn't leave you hanging.

Really Love, I fell in love with this movie. Angel Kristi Williams and co-writer Felicia Pride wrote a beautiful love story. The chemistry between Kofi Siriboe and Yootha Wong-Loi-Sing is just amazing, I've got no clue how these two actors did not fall in love for real.

This is a must-watch.

I really wanted to like this film! The cinematography is absolutely gorgeous, as are the characters! The wardrobe is to die for and they get everything right about the DC ambiance. Where it goes wrong is the actual storytelling itself. That seems to be a thing with many of the shows marketed to Black audiences on Netflix, unfortunately. The female lead isn't really developed at all in terms of us getting to know her character other than she's in school to be a lawyer. We knew predictably exactly where things were going to go with the boyfriend. I don't even need to share spoilers! It would have been nice to have a story that was unexpected and still uplifting. There were a number of ways that could have been done given this phenomenal lead and supporting cast. Maybe next time.
