I knew little about it, but it took only a few minutes to really dig it. Great editing, original and playful. Lovely shots and effects. A story that's funny, absurd, sad and mysterious. It's also very cool that it's told from a film's point of view at times. The first 40 minutes glides easily by and it got me hooked. I needed to eat some sour facts that i didn't like, but after that it was a plesant watch for a while. Sadly, the ball keeps on rolling. And rolling. And rolling. It turns into a farce. It's a mysterious film with ups and downs, but the uplifting start is outnumbered by poorer moments the last half of the film. A bit artistic, almost intelligent but it does not got that last brick on lock. Allright acting, original plot and pretty imagery saves a poorer grade. This is not a poor film, but I'm sad that all the great potential turned out slightly above mediocre. 6.5 out of 10 suitcases.

Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I'm reminded of a negative review I once read for "Stoker" (a film I actually like quite a bit) -- what compels a story? Or what makes a story compelling? Is a compelling story enough, or is what you do with it? I say this on the heels of "Just Another Love Story", a movie that sticks to its title in -- similar to "Kiss Kiss Bang Bang" and "Seven Psychopaths" -- its obsession in its tributes, homages, and every other play on the word. "Love Story" is a film noir, and it has all the trappings. Writer-director Ole Bornedal has a Tarantino-y Hans Landa sort of grin: isn't this all just so exciting? Short answer: fuck yes. It's exciting as hell, even if the suspense of something icy, violent and foreign isn't your shit. It so happens to be mine. Cheers to Anders W. Berthelsen's lead performance. "Just Another Love Story" may be a tad TOO melodramatic, but so what if it has a little kooky fun. I had a killing. The black comedy is in the tale of mistaken identity, but the punishment is in the fall. Meaning even if you laugh at its pain, you can still feel it. Sucks to know Bornedal's last work of note was "The Possession". Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Read all reviews
