Review of The Lovebirds (2020) by Musicalmarvell — 10 Aug 2020

I honestly thought I was tuning in for 1 hour and 27 minutes of pure stupidity and nonsense when I pressed the play button for "The Lovebirds". I was kind of wrong. To be completely honest, I actually enjoyed this film. The screenplay was decent. I thought the jokes weren't too cheesy; I actually found them funny. The chemistry between Kumail Nanjiani and Issa Rae wasn't the worst. I definitely enjoyed Issa Rae's hilarious performance! Yes, part of the movie is completely absurd (especially the part where they were gullible enough to trust a sketchy-a*s man who claimed he was police and then they just SAT THERE AND WATCHED HIM RUN OVER SOME POOR DUDE LIKE WHAT IN THE WORLD??). But, I just found it entertaining, enjoyable, funny, thrilling even. (not the murder part btw lol).

I'm honestly glad "The Lovebirds" didn't premiere in theaters because it would've flopped financially FOR SURE.
