Art of Love is a film that tackles a taboo topic
Sex toys and loneliness are the themes that it picks
Adam and Eve are the leads who start off as foes
But as they work together, their attraction grows
The film has a progressive view and courage to explore
The issues of intimacy and connection that many ignore
The change of relationship between Adam and Eve is well done
Not too fast or too slow, but believable and fun
The casting is also good, both actors are convincing
Especially Adam, a self-loving influencer who needs some rinsing
The boss is a pocket-sized demon who adds some spice
Adam’s downfall is depicted short and to the point, which is nice
The film stays neutral about the sex toy industry
It does not judge or praise, but shows it as a reality
However, the film has some flaws that could have been better
Such as the missed opportunity for children in the story since they matter.
They could have judged the marriage situation of their dad
Who was close-minded and selfish, and made their mom sad
We had no backstory or motivation for his actions or his choice
His replacement wife was just a product, she had no voice
Adam and Eve also had a default character arc
They learned to love themselves and each other, but it was not very stark
They could have faced more challenges or dilemmas on their way
To make their journey more compelling and less clichรฉ
Art of Love is a film that tries to break some norms
It has some positive aspects, but also some thorns
Like a cactus, it can prick you, but also make you smile
It is worth a watch, but don’t expect it to be very wild
The reviewers deducted a point because in a poem they used a cactus as an object of great rawness
They thought it was too cheesy and lacked some finesse
One of the reviewers got custom made medication with his name on it in the middle
He said it was a nice touch, but it did not solve this riddle
Art of Love is a film that has some charm and wit
But it also has some flaws that make it not a perfect hit
It is a decent comedy with some drama and is no reason for a rant.
But it could have been more daring and less bland.
