Love, Repeat

source: Love, Repeat

This film makes me love NYC even more! Beautifully shot scene of NYC. There is a nice mix of drama and comedy, for a feel good balanced film. The characters are relatable and are all good people, with flaws like the rest of us. Relationships are complicated, but what would like be without that? highly recommend.

With breathtaking cinematography, this heartfelt, zany comedy will have you laughing and crying. If you need some laughter therapy, this is the movie for you. Set in NYC, this nerdy, wacky departure from reality had me laughing out loud! With just enough insights and a high level of acting - the movie achieves a depth most rom-coms don't. If you're looking for something beyond the usual, this feel good movie is an excellent departure from reality. And the music is unusually beautiful.

Very sweet rom com film that isn't formulaic Hollywood. A lovely way to start the New Year.

I generally don't watch a lot of rom coms. They're nice for a distraction but I had read that Love, Repeat has beautiful cinematography of New York City, and that interested me. We got all the distraction and happiness of any rom com but also found a nice change of pace in the depth of the characters. Bill Connington, playing James, immediately won me over with his portrayal of an intelligent, kind man who loves his family and wants them together again. James is a little lost in how to relate to his ex-wife and feels if he had known, she would not be the ex. By watching the other quirky couples he knows, including his parents, the babysitter and his partner, and his best friends, he learns more about himself and Barbara. Other cast members bring about a joyful combination of quirkiness and entertainment along with their love and support for James. James goes through attempts at dating, with the encouragement of his friends, but comes back to the one love he knows is true. I did enjoy the cinematography, which brought an extra depth to a movie with an overall feel-good vibe and a few entertaining plot twists. Definitely recommend this movie, especially if you like a little more depth to your rom coms.

So many romantic movies are about kinda crazy situations. THis one is more about real people, and their real feelings. There is the main couple, and then their family and friends. They are all struggling with love. Some of it is funny, and there are a few serious moments too. I like the indie vibe. It doesn't follow a formula. And New York looks beautiful in it.

One of the best releases of the past few years. Not because of outstanding captivating acting, but for a wondeful story touching 3 generations, no swearing or perversities, and a wonderful, awesome soundtrack!

This movie contains unusual and beautiful shots of New York City, breathtaking footage of the city the way it really looks. Bill Connington's superb and nuanced acting stayed with me for a long time after the credits rolled. That and the mesmerizing theme song.

So, like any genuine New Yorker, I go into a film that's touting NYC with a certain amount of skepticism. Especially a rom com. I was about half way in and so far it was sweet and quirky and well done, and the city shots were admittedly pretty gorgeous, and then.......BOOM. They had me. All of a sudden I'm tearing up and I'm missing the people I love and seriously invested in these characters working it all out. Maybe it's wandering NYC in the snow, or good old fashioned story telling. Whatever it is, thanks for the cry and I'll be adding this film to my "guilty pleasures" list.

I like films that have humor that's a little dry - slightly off center. That's what this is. Good characters and story. And it's a feel-good movie. Beautiful to look at.
