Leslie Felperin The Hollywood Reporter Honest, thoughtful, and daringly talky as it observes modern dating customs in the age of apps, it deserves further exposure beyond the festival circuit. Sep 10, 2024 Full Review Jonathan Romney Screen International With contemplative slow pacing that is leisurely rather than laborious, and Cecilie Semec’s clean, luminous camerawork... Love is a drama about choice, chance and the carpe diem imperative, especially in the face of illness and emotional distress. Sep 7, 2024 Full Review Guy Lodge Variety It’s the rare romantic drama that concedes one person’s happily-ever-after is not necessarily another’s. Sep 7, 2024 Full Review Sarah Manvel In Their Own League The film [ends] on a bittersweet yet hopeful note even as very few of the relationships shown have a traditional resolution. It’s incredibly lifelike, which is not always what you want in a movie, but that unusual ambiguity is Love's power. Sep 15, 2024 Full Review John Bleasdale Next Best Picture Haugerud is fascinated by his characters and lets his actors carry the weight of the film, allowing them time to explore, express themselves, and challenge each other in ways that don’t lead to conflict. Rated: 7/10 Sep 13, 2024 Full Review Frank J. Avella Edge Media Network Norwegian helmer Dag Johan Haugerud has created a thought-provoking, mesmerizing queer-and-sex-positive gem with his fourth feature, "Love."...The film is audacious in its non-judgmental approach to different kinds of intimacy.
