Carla Hay Culture Mix Lover is an emotional drama that can get repetitive, and this 145-minute movie is too long, but it's a realistic portrayal of how difficult it can be to end a toxic and abusive relationship. This well-acted movie also explores generational trauma. Feb 24, 2024 Full Review Read all reviews

Flixster F A simple story about a possessive lover who wants to control how his girlfriend lives. A bit too long. As the male character was crazy (he was a sudden and constant threat), I thought it'd end up badly but it ends on a relatively positive note. The movie ends with the following quote by James Baldwin: "Love does not begin and end the way we seem to think it does. Love is battle, Love is a war, Love is growing up." And, taking a cue from the movie, maybe Love is also growing apart! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 10/30/24 Full Review Priyan B It gets repetitive and boring in second half. 5/10 Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review AYYAPPAN M Lover is a film which showcases the love between people with two different and extreme characters. Hero Arun seems to be a little bit Raw, Ambitious guy. In his love life he is unsecured and has lot of possessiveness. In his career he repeatedly sees setbacks.He has a troubled family relationship his mom and dad share a bitter relationship. Heroine Divya on the other hand seems to be a soft normal character. She care Arun a lot. She seems to be a a socially connected person as well. After getting into their relationship she find her guy to be a short tempered and frustrated person. Her friends circle and everything keeps her in harmony except her boy friend. The two together have crossed 6 years in relationship in these years there were multiple circumstances were Arun loses his temper and creates a ruckus in public gathering with Divya. Divya manier times forgives Arun but as each incident occurs their relationship seems to be stained. Divya also learns the troubled relationship of Arun's father and mother and she even Thinks Arun is like his father in the later scenes. Divya decides to end their relationship but Arun tries to console and nothing works out what happens in the end is for you to watch the film. The characters were very much a resemblance of real world characters and the narration of the events in their life as a film is crisp, clean and clear without any flaws. The songs were impactful. All technical aspects compliment the story. The director tried making a royal briyani and succeeded in making it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/31/24 Full Review Nikhil K Very Heart Breaking movie yet doesn't leave mark of being good movie. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 05/14/24 Full Review Dhanu K While Manikandan and Sri Gouri Priya deliver stellar performances, Lover loses its charm with its repetitive portrayal of a toxic and manipulative relationship.
