STUCK IN LOVE IS 2013 AMERICAN INDEPENDENT ROMANTIC-DRAMA FILM, DIRECTED AND WRITTEN BY JOSH BOONE. THE FILM STARS JENNIFER CONNELLY, GREG KINNEAR, LILY COLLINS, LOGAN LERMAN, AND NAT WOLFF.
THE FILM IS ABOUT COMPLICATED RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN A SUCCESSFUL NOVELIST, PLAYED BY KINNEAR, HIS EX WIFE (CONNELLY) AND THEIR COLLEGIATE DAUGHTER (COLLINS) AND TEENAGE SON (WOLFF).
THE FILM MET WITH MIXED REVIEWS FROM CRITICS.
THERE'S NOTHING NEW OR FRESH ABOUT THIS FILM BUT THERE'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING SPECIAL ABOUT THE DEBUT DIRECTOR, JOSH BOONE. HE GAVE A PROMISING DIRECTORIAL EFFORT AND SO-SO FILM FOR A NEW COMER. WHO AM I TO CRITIC THE NEW COMER DIRECTORS, I MEAN THEY ALL HAVE THEIR OWN UNIQUE WAYS. WHILE I'M ONLY 16 AND FIGURING OUT HOW TO BE A CRITIC LEGEND LIKE ROGER EBERT.
THERE'S A FEW LAUGHS IN THIS FILM WHICH KEEPS ME ENTERTAINED. THE CAST'S PERFORMANCES ARE GOOD. I LOVE HOW KINNEAR IS CONSISTENT ON WHAT HE'S DOING. LERMAN IS ALWAYS AMAZING, AFTER WATCHING THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER A FEW MONTHS AGO, I REALIZED THAT LERMAN IS GOING TO BE A FUTURE OSCAR-WINNER, AT FIRST I THOUGHT HE'S LIKE SOME TYPICAL TEEN ACTORS BUT HE PROVED ME WRONG. JUST BY LOOKING AT CONNELLY'S EYES, THEY SHOW ENDLESS EMOTIONS, IT'S SCARY YET ATTRACTIVE, HER EYES MAKE THE AUDIENCES WANT TO WATCH HER MORE.
I RATE THIS FILM 5/10 OR UNFAVORABLE.
