Plot
Murphy is an American living in Paris who enters a highly sexually and emotionally charged relationship with Electra. Unaware of the effect it will have on their relationship, they invite their pretty neighbor into their bed.
Cast
Not familiar with the cast but brought to you by Gaspar Noé, the man who gave us Climax (2018) and the highly controversial Irreversible (2002), he clearly has a "Style". Notable mention regarding Aomi Muyock who was just, dreadful.
Verdict
I've just done my top 10 French movies and have to say it's not a great selection, me and French cinema have never been on the same page especially when it's come to horror movies.
Love is an award winning "Art" film and wow do I use that term loosely. Evidence that if the right people call it art then enough people will consider it as such. Love is an adult film, let's not kid ourselves and I don't mean as in it's aimed at adults I mean this is adult entertainment, the stuff that would be in the backroom of a video store behind a curtain. Get me?
The opening scene was a drawn out emotionally dead sequence which was graphic and set the tone but immediately made me question what I was watching.
The movie is advertised as a a drama/romance. Let me be clear this has a lot of drama, but none of it is engaging. You'll hate the characters and be frustrated that there are more "Adult" scenes that dramatic content. And romance? Don't make me laugh, there's nothing romantic about this film. It focuses on a highly toxic relationship that should never have been.
This is not a movie, it's pornography.
Rants
Let me be clear, I'm no prude and have no problem with sex and nudity in films in the slightest. However that's all this is, I don't understand why they dressed this up as a legitimate film or why it got the praise it did. There is a very fine line between this and the average Jenna Jameson movie so why is that smut and this is art?
Breakdown
Barely a movie Aomi Muyock was awful This is not art.
