Vincent B Ceux qui marquent que ce film est 5 étoiles se mentent à eux-mêmes. Ce film a oui quelques prises bien filmées, et certaines scènes ont de bons jeux d’acteur. Mais plusieurs personnages introduits manquent de profondeur. Il y a aussi quelques longueurs, qui auraient pu être enlevées sans nuire au film, qui est quand même long. Nous manquons aussi de raisons pour ressentir certains sentiments d’appartenance à Clotaire, car il est représenté comme un intimidateur qui se pense invincible. Pourquoi s'inquiéter à son sujet ? Jackie, elle, tombe amoureuse de ce « bad boy ». Quelle raison autre qu’elle le trouve mignon, et un contraire de sa personne ? Les contraires s'attirent, mais pas à ce point. Oui la cinématographie est bonne, mais plein de films ont de bonne cinématographie… Il y a des abus au niveau des contrastes de lumières, point de vue première personne, éclairages, zoom… Bref, le film a abusé sur les styles pour essayer de plaire à tout le monde, et quand on essaye de plaire à tout le monde, au final on plait à personne… Alors on se pose la question : qu’est-ce qui différencie ce film d’un autre ? Absolument rien, et c’est ça le problème. Ce film est un bon divertissement, selon moi et rien de plus. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/30/25 Full Review Khaliel P There’s a basic rule in filmmaking — taught in every film school — that zooms should be used sparingly, ideally no more than twice in an entire film (because it looks amateurish and cheap). And I’m talking about zooms, not tracking shots. It was already outdated by the late ’80s. But Lellouche decided to use zooms in every single shot. The result is a visually unbearable experience. There are also completely pointless scenes (the dance scene to show they’re in love? Really?) that drag on way too long. The film is already 2h46 long for a story that’s been told hundreds of times — the sweet, smart girl falling for the bad boy — Grease already nailed that in 1978. And the ending? You see it coming from miles away. Obviously what we’re shown at the start isn’t the real ending — otherwise, there would be no point to the film at all. In the end, the cast is excellent and they alone earn the film an average score, but the direction is far from good and the script is seriously weak. The so-called ‘crazy love’ from the title? Nowhere to be found. Just a pretty basic relationship. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/08/25 Full Review Julia W I don't get people who didn't enjoy Beating Hearts. Full of hope, great actors and breathtaking cinematography. I cried a few times during the movie. It didn't feel long at all. Cinema at its peak. One of my favorite movies ever. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/12/25 Full Review Jyri J If you needed a reason to love cinema, Beating Hearts would be it. It is everything a good movie should be. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review Kamilla A Besser als alle Hollywoodfilme in letzter Zeit! Nostalgie pur und sehr emotional, tolle Kamera und tolle 80/90er Musik, tolle Schauspieler! Ich bin verliebt in diesen Film. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/01/25 Full Review Ambre S This movie is a masterpiece cinematographic was directed by Gilles Lellouche in 2024. The acting is really well led by Adèle Exarchopoulos, François Civil, Malik Frikah and Mallory Waneck in the role of Clotaire and Jackie the two main characters. Despite the length of the film which lasts 2h46. The plot is very captivant because she talks about the love of two teenagers and the passion they have for each other despite the illegal activities and the prison that separated them. Be going to they will end up together or separate and not live their love as he wanted ? In my opinion I really recommend this movie because its plot is really intriguing and captivating, time passes really quickly. It’s really one of the best French movies.
