"She is Love definitely holds a remarkably unique style, but one that fails to emotionally grab the audience.
Haley Bennett and Sam Riley share amazing chemistry, Marisa Abela brings some fun into the film, and the cast's improvisation skills are admirable. However, the extreme close-ups, shaky cam, abrupt cuts, and chaotic editing make it a frustrating viewing. Whenever a scene is able to break through the screen and reach the hearts of everyone watching, a creative/technical decision comes to remove all emotion attached.
Not for the general moviegoer."
Rating: C-
