A greatly flawed love story
|
"Love Collage" is an uneasy mixture of film influences and styles. It starts out as a fairly conventional tale of an introspective photographer who falls in love with a "wild child" girl. She takes up photography to be closer to him, but her impulsive skill with the camera soon outpaces his own efforts. She then moves to New York City to pursue her career. So far, so good, but when the story moves to the Big Apple, the movie really goes off the rails. The filmmakers at this point seem torn between turning the film into a remake of "Ghost", "Blow Up", or "Nightmare on Elm Street". Instead of choosing one genre, they mix them all up. And, speaking as someone who lived there for a couple years, I can attest that the depiction of New York City as a collection of hard-hearted grifters, thugs, and thieves is utterly preposterous. Pity poor Eiko Koike. She must need a new agent; I'm not sure how she let herself be talked into taking the part she plays in this film. In "2LDK", she showed that she can really act. Here her role is simply laughable. The love story portions at the beginning and end of this film are intriguing; the rest of it is a mess. |

This is a wonderful movie, totally worth the entire price I paid for it. Even friends I have that aren't into japanese or foreign films enjoyed it. It's cute, it's sweet, it's funny, it's dramatic. The ending was a bit anticlimactic, but it doesn't lose any points with me. |

I thought this movie was awesome! The cinematography is just amazing. I usually don't pay much attention to how the film is shot, but this movie really caught my eye. Aside from that, the plot is confusing at times but definitely understandable. If you are a sucker for sweet, sappy, and squealing-inducing romance like me, then I highly recommend this movie. ^_^ |

bad movie
| I thought the movie was good but really disappointed. bad acting, bad story, bad directing... I almost fell asleep in the middle of the movie. The story doesn't make sense to me. The movie tried to make NY city is a bad city. The ending of the story is one the worst part. It is nothing to compare to the original "love letter". |
