Alicia I love this movie so much
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.
Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
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.
Michail Angelov I did watch the movie somehow late, just now on TV. I was however gladly surprised: Bulgarian movies are usually in the extremity of being so pretentious in being art or too populist in being consumer oriented. Love.net for me is just on the balance of being a genuinely good movie and good entertainment for those interested in having good value for their tickets. Let me try to explain why this worked for me.1. The story told in the movies is real. This could happen anywhere in the world with people speaking Bulgarian, English, Spanish or Chinese for all it matters. The moral choices the protagonists have to make to make sense and could relate to anybody in our internet world. This is why the movie should not be seen as Bulgarian as staging and the showcases lifestyle is not the lifestyle most Bulgarians enjoy, but this is how anybody in the world that has similar problem would live, and I do dare to say Bulgaria is right on the money there.2. The movie is good fun: perhaps too much nudity in some scenes, but again this is art: the scenes are from a very successful staging of Casanova at the national theater. Yes, I do agree there are some flat lines, but give some proper English translation and all will be fine.
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.
