Reviews
Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.
Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Lachlan Coulson This is a gorgeous movie made by a gorgeous spirit.
Abegail Noëlle While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.
ehyritaflores This movie is f marvelous and I think the key behind this history is the undeniable chemistry between Luce (Lena) and Rachel (Piper), they gave me goosebumps like all the time they were together. Beautiful characters and most of all beautiful history about love. if we are lucky enough we can truly live this once in a lifetime.
juneebuggy This was a cute, charming and fun movie, reminding me throughout of one of those Hugh Grant British rom-coms (Notting Hill, Four Weddings). Complete with eccentric parents, witty friends and the obligatory pile everyone into the car and speed to the boy/girl to proclaim your love endings.I admit to having a bit of a girl-crush on Piper Perabo myself and I enjoyed her portrayal of a Brit including her English accent. Here she plays Rachel, who finally ties the knot with long-time boyfriend Heck (Matthew Goode). During the ceremony preparations she starts up a friendship with the florist Luce (Lena Headey)and then starts to question her own sexuality when she begins to have feelings for her.This movie is described as "Boy meets girl, boy falls for girl, boy marries girl, girl falls for female florist on wedding day." Yup that pretty much covers it except for the husband I felt bad for him and was happy to see the little post credit plane ride ending. 10.13
Roedy Green The characters in this film are good-looking, polite, rational and reasonably considerate. But they are also pretty bland. The plot is a bride gets a crush on her female florist, but is in denial it is a sexual attraction. She gets in too deep before she twigs.The plot proceeds a glacial pace because of the bride's ambivalence.The movie does not shy away from depicting the hurt her loving husband faces.The ending is corny to the max, with a happy ending for all, even the jilted husband. The ending just comes out of the blue without cause. Even a grandchild appears from some unknown womb to give the mother her fondest wish. It makes no sense.There is one scene that made me howl with laughter because it highlighted how utterly clueless the writer was about gay men. The married couple disturb two men having sex in a park at night. The two gay men then formally introduce themselves.The casting director favours a certain type of British man. I was often confused by which Cary Grant clone I was looking at.The movie treats a F-F couple as something highly exotic, shocking and unexpected. It is just not that big a deal anymore. I think the writer made up the screenplay out of his imagination of what he though it might be like to be a lesbian, not from the experiences of his lesbian friends. For example, Luce is extremely pretty and pleasant to be around, but has almost no friends.The music is great. It has big lush sound, lots of variety, melodious, fun.
trixie-k-88 This is one of the dullest films I have ever seen. It's a romantic comedy with little romance and little comedy.Rachel (Piper Perabo) is a young woman happily marrying her long-time boyfriend Hector (Matthew Goode). But at their wedding Rachel meets and starts to fall for Luce (Lena Headey), their lesbian florist. There's sexual tensions between them and Heck tries to figure out why his wife is becoming so distant. Rachel must then decide who she will stay with, Luce or Heck? This movie was SO boring. I don't think I've ever written a synopsis that short, and that's because NOTHING happens! Seriously, the majority of the movie is the characters doing mundane tasks like taking care of things at work, grocery shopping, and eating dinner. The main bonding moment was Luce teaching Rachel how to yell obscene insults at a soccer match. Just melts your heart doesn't it? They had little chemistry. I didn't care about either of them. I watched this film a few days ago and I could not remember EITHER of the characters' names when I was writing this; it was that boring and forgettable. We knew nothing about the characters. Luce was a florist, and a lesbian. Rachel was…a closeted(?) lesbian married to a man. Honestly, the only person I really felt sympathetic towards was Hector! Also, it must be said that when the most sympathetic character in a lesbian film is a man…I think you messed up. I mean, here's this sweet guy trying to bond with his wife and she's making out with the florist from their freaking WEDDING. Speaking of, there are only two small kissing scenes. It's a tame movie, and was only rated R because of homophobia. Imagine Me & You was so devoid of emotion, character and plot that I am truly baffled as to why some people consider this one of the "best" lesbian movies. It's a crap movie, and there's little to no passion or connection between the two women. The only interesting character was Rachel's eccentric little sister who was in all of three scenes. I'd much rather have watched a movie about her! There was also only about one or two chuckles in the whole movie. Yeah…I'd skip this one. There are many better films, and better lesbian romances.
