Jennie Punter Globe and Mail Rough around the edges but delivered straight from the heart, Lovers in a Dangerous Time revels in the inarticulate and the unresolved, reminding us that romance doesn't always have to mean happily ever after. Rated: 2/4 Apr 6, 2012 Full Review Linda Barnard Toronto Star A gentle and authentic love story that carries enough of the familiar to ring true throughout...

Audience Member A nice example of Canadian regional cinema. Shot in rural British Columbia, it follows two young adults who grew up together reuniting when one of them comes home for their high school reunion. It really captures the tempo and atmosphere of rural Western Canada quite nicely, and it never seems to end up going exactly where you expect it to go. I'm not clear how the Bruce Cockburn song it's named after is relevant though. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member 7/10 I really enjoyed this movie. I connected with the characters because they are a lot like me. At that stage in their lives, not knowing which way to go. Can you go back again? Such a universal question. This movie worked perfectly for the cool rainy afternoon in which I watched. Format: Netflix Streaming Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A realistic, frustrating, charming and heart-warming look at family, friends and love in all its icky and complicated awesomeness. Amazing soundtrack by JBM. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Maybe Canadians haven't seen an indie film like this before. But we here in America sure have -- ad nauseum. It's not so much bad as it is unnecessary. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
