PlatinumRead Just so...so bad
Ogosmith Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Marva-nova Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
The Couchpotatoes I'm not impressed at all by The One I love. Seeing the high ratings it got I was expecting something much better. The story is kinda new but not that really interesting, certainly not for the entire movie. Sometimes a bit confusing if you lose your attention, and it doesn't really come with clear answers at the end, so that's also a major letdown to me. Mark Duplass and Elisabeth Moss are basically they only actors in this movie, or at least for 98%, and I don't know if that was a good thing. Their acting is not bad, it's just the storytelling that is not very captivating. At least not for me, nor my wife. Obviously other people thought it was so maybe you should give it a shot. For me it didn't work.
templar77099 Such a terrific experience. Went in not knowing a single thing about it, except for the part it was kind of a romantic dramedy and was really surprised. "The One I Love" wasn't really the kind of film I was expecting and that's what probably made me like it so much. Carried by the two leads (the both excellent Mark Duplass and Elisabeth Moss) this is one of those few films where you don't get sick of watching always the same actors on-screen. In fact, the constrained setting makes it much fresh. The soundtrack also factored heavily to create a somewhat creepy and weird atmosphere that the story really benefits from. "The One I Love" can be creepy and extremely charming almost at the some time, and you'll find yourself wondering why some things are happening. Despite leaving some questions unanswered, the film still holds up pretty well and is definitely worthwatching.An amazing directorial debut for Charlie Mcdowell.
Reno Rangan This is a slow start, but the second half makes it worth a watch. You better know nothing about the film, just have it and enjoy your time. Because that was the case for me and then I found it a good one. I don't know this director, but Mark Duplass was doing such kind of unique concept small films. So there's no surprise, except I did know I would end up liking it very much.When it comes to the film theme, kind of resembles 'Coherence'. The whole film revolves around a married couple, except in the beginning. So it is a minimal cast film that is set in a remote place villa. As their therapist's instruction a couple who are on the edge of losing their marriage, tries a weekend getaway to patch the differences. But end up encountering the strange events that pleases them more than what they've expected. When they begin to realise the reality, comes the trouble to fix it once for all.The third act was amazing. The pace keeps getting better and the tension in the story simply creates enough curiosity about the ending. But the conclusion was very basic and guessable. I liked the honest than too much fancy. Still the viewers look for the answers regarding how it ended which is kind of a wide open for the discussions.I love modern sci-fi dramas, especially in the last one decade, I have been enjoying them a lot, which are highly intelligent yet casually narrated on the screen that anybody can understand easily. If you had liked films such as 'Coherence', 'Another Earth', 'Her', 'Melanchony' et cetera, then surely would have a good time with it.7/10
V Mateo I could honestly say this movie was unexpectedly good. I admit reading a bit of a spoiler and yet did not quite see the twist coming. I would've given a 10/10 - or perhaps a 12/10 if we could - if it wasn't because we - the viewers - were left with sorta ambiguity and mystery with the desktop scene. It would've been even better if that scene was cut out but then again it didn't make sense to me at first when Ethan was discovering the house and passed by that room therefore leaving us with questions. That was obviously intentional. I'm personally not a romantic comedy fan but the plot seemed so intriguing that I had to check it out and I do not regret it.
