Lust for Love (2014) Reviews

• Congratulations - Great Movie !

  I have to be careful what I say here because I know Anton King and Dichen Lachman too well. Dichen is our daughter and we have watched this production develop over the last few years. When one is an observer - and offers advice and criticism - whether it be football, baseball or a movie - it is just too easy. We sit back, watch the show and every small blemish and fumble is noticed. However I give the whole crew 10 out of 10 for this production. Tonight my wife and I had the opportunity to sit back and watch the movie by ourselves. Normally I prefer slow plodding movies like "Lincoln" and "The Thin Red Line". I do not normally watch love comedies. However I did enjoy this movie and not just because our daughter was in it. Fran Kranz and Beau Garrett did an outstanding job. Caitlin Stasey and Enver Gjokaj are also fantastic. I enjoyed this movie and it is well worth seeing. The cast and crew deserve a medal. In particular Anton King and Dichen Lachman for pulling it off. No one who has not been involved in making a movie will have any idea just how difficult it is. There are many people who made this production possible and they came up with money because they believed in the project. Anton and Dichen are both Aussies they went to Hollywood and made their movie. Good job ! Lastly I have to say - viva Alessandro Ongaro of Luna Pictures Entertainment. You also did a great service to this picture.

• So much potential...

  andypross2014-02-09

  "Disappointed" is the word that springs to mind after finishing this film for the first time. After watching the trailer I was sure this would be a hit - what could go wrong with throwing together a load of Dollhouse alum in front of the camera? Apparently, almost everything. Fran Kranz, as always, plays his role brilliantly considering what he had to work with and is, in my opinion, the film's only saving grace. The acting in general is largely wooden, the directing is flat and uninteresting, the plot is cliché and predictable, but most of all - the script is horrendous. The writer seems to opt for a snappy Whedon-esque form of dialogue that falls so flat for the most part, it can be painful to watch. I can only express my sincerest condolences to those who backed this project on Kickstarter, and were looking forward to this film as much as I was.

• Lust For Love has Hilarious Hijinks and is Funny Sweet

  I attended the Premiere of Lust For Love and I am thrilled to say it is a great movie. Seeing the Cast of Dollhouse reunited in this movie was great. I absolutely love Fran Kranz he is just a delight to watch. Dichen Lachman not only co-stars in this movie she is also one of the producers. She worked hard to get it made. Enver Gjokaj is simply amazing in all he does. I really enjoyed the scenes with Enver and Fran the most, they are a great comedy duo. Miracle Laurie is the heart and warm fuzzy in this movie she is adorable. I laughed so much and really enjoyed the acting, pacing and writing of this indie movie. During the Q&A Dichen said they filmed it in 19 days and Fran worked everyday. The chemistry among the cast was great and the new additions worked well with everyone. I highly recommend checking this movie out online. This is not your typical Rom Com. Lust For Love is original and well made. I absolutely loved it!!! It was a pleasure meeting the Cast and telling them how wonderful they are in this movie.

• Didn't really deserve to be made

  cutegirlbutts2014-11-14

  I don't agree with why this film exists really. It was crowd sourced with the draw to internet users by having half of the DOLLHOUSE cast in it. The target audience of 'people who don't care at all what these actors are in but are just happy to see them on their screens' seem pretty happy with the finished product, but I don't really. It's a completely clichéd story of some nerdish guy who doesn't think he can really talk to girls trying to win his ex back and finding love in other places along the way. The actors all have this great likable quality that makes them fun to watch and they really do their best with the bland characters they have to work with. This film isn't half as likable as it thinks it is, it's pretty bland and formulaic. You'll have fun seeing these actors and you'll like them but not really the characters. Pretty much a waste of time.

• Heart Warming and worth seeking out!

  lakeboonee2014-02-13

  I had been waiting for quite some time for this movie to become available. As a hug fan of most all the cast members I was hoping the film would deliver. I am happy to report that is does indeed. I found the film to reflect all the hard work and love that it is obvious was poured in it by Anton King the director and the cast. The chemistry between Dichen Lachman and Fran Kranz is wonderful. Fans of "Dollhouse" will of course be thrilled to see former cast members reunited for this project. Miracle Laurie gives a wonderful performance as does Enver Gjokaj. Add in a dash of Felicia Day and how can you go wrong right? I have already watched Lust for Love twice now and I enjoyed it even more the second viewing. I recommend seeking this film out. Its perfect timing for a watch over Valentines Day single or otherwise!
