Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Mircea Kivu In this film there are about a dozen different characters using computers, which is normal, given the topic. Fact is that all of them use Sony Vaio laptops. And there is not a single scene where the computer is present and the logo is absent. Good business.
dissolved girl When I watched Love.net for the first time I thought that it was quite a decent and fun to watch film. I think it has a rather interesting and modern plot. The idea is original and the main actors were fine, I think. The script itself is not very deep but then again this is not the type of films you would spend your whole day thoroughly analyzing. Also, some of the lines are very hard or impossible to translate into English so you can't get the real meaning, but I guess that goes for all Bulgarian films… As one review said, Love.net is direct, topical, without inhibitions.I would not call the film a masterpiece in any way but I absolutely don't agree with people claiming that it does not show the realistic way of life in Bulgaria. First of all, it's a movie for God's sake… It has an imaginary plot like most films do and the director may choose whatever environment he finds appropriate for his characters. I would perhaps agree with you people if it was a historical film or a film which aims to introduce a problem or in some way the severe life that some of the Bulgarians have to deal with. And actually people working as surgeons and journalists in Bulgaria, believe it or not, do afford to live in flats like those in the film… It's like watching an American movie where all the characters live in palaces and saying 'Well, that's not realistic because there are many poor people in America'. I really don't understand that… And the other thing I read in disbelief is about Bulgarians who like the movie because of patriotic motives. Are you kidding me?! I myself criticize almost every Bulgarian film that comes out and I would not say that I liked Love.net because of patriotism… And finally, another thing I read was about the prostitute and how absurd it looked that she lives in an apartment like that and that this is not how prostitutes look like. Well, actually there are some luxurious and very well-paid prostitutes who have regular customers that don't treat them like garbage. And as she said in the film-she has established bonds with regular clients who she calls 'friends'. I may be mistaken but somehow that seems very legitimate to me. As for the rating…please don't criticize that considering that films like 'The Avengers' have a rating of 8.3…Just, please.
play35x First off, 8.4/10 is a ridiculous rating based on pseudo patriotic desire for "supporting" Bulgarian cinema. While it's true it needs our support, giving monstrously inaccurate and overestimated ratings on IMDb doesn't serve it good. This film, at very best, deserves a 5-6 score out of 10. This whole thing makes me sad. It's the same mindset that stops Bulgaria from being a "normal" country. It shows nothing more than our nation's deeply underlying insecurity and craving for approval from the outside world. A desperate craving for recognition. Well--not with this movie. It's mediocre and boring as hell. Wake up. Please wake up.
Iliya Todorov Generally I am quite interested in the Bulgarian cinema revival process and in my opinion this film is a step forward towards achieving this goal. Conditions in Bulgaria should be able to provide a self-sustaining movie industry, as this and a few other titles are/were quite popular in movie theaters across the country. But let's concentrate on the film. I'd say it has an interesting script, decent actors and very good cinematic qualities in terms of scene shooting, sound and some CGI to freshen up the atmosphere... A few jokes, a dose of female nudity here and there, a sprinkle of romantics at the end- all in the name of creating a good mood and reaching the masses. But if the authors wanted something more, they should have addressed a few issues. A friend of mine says that in order to convey a sufficient and complete story in a feature film you need at least 120 min. So when I saw that "Love.net" lasted 107 min I thought that probably something was missing. And indeed- a lot more could have been done in terms of character development and character depth. For example- I couldn't feel the inner conflict in the doctor's wife when she took the decision to play online games with her husband. It just came out of nowhere. I didn't catch when the elite prostitute fell in love with the journalist. Her attitude towards him remained mostly unchanged throughout the film and suddenly at the end she was deeply offended by the fact that he didn't use his own money to have sex with her, that one time she charged him for the service... The story kind of fell apart there. Some acting issues can also be noted. The Englishmen were jolly good chaps, but let's face it- they were terrible actors. The realistic rating would probably be around 6.7 if a few thousand people vote. Like I said- not bad.
