Are We in Love? (2020) User Reviews

Half baked

First part is ok but latter part is weak. It's not a total mess.

The first part is ok with the magical book and all those confessing to her. Funny explanation of the confessions. Very dated making Sung Hoon rude to her. The obstacle about being ashamed her mother and him having to leave for that is weak cliched and unconvincing. Just put her in a facility for a while. Then she just is okay about it and all is well.

The two leads are ok together. Sung Hoon looks slimmer than usual and young enough to play the role. Too bad he doesn't have better movie roles. He is actually a good actor. Kim So Eun is quite good and pretty enough.

Very disappointed

First of all, how sad to see these two main leads circling the drain. Kim So Eun was great in Liar Game and Boys Over Flowers (she was much better than the female lead in that one); so if she did this movie because she 'needed' to, then I'm a bit worried. As for Sung Hoon, I'm a LOT worried, especially after seeing his last one: "I picked up a Celebrity on the Street". When he first came on the drama scene he had some neat parts like the white-haired assassin in "Faith the Great Healer" or the hard-training athlete in "Oh My Venus". And when he got the male lead in "My Secret Romance", I thought his star would rise and never fall. But sadly, it has. Getting involved with this hodgepodge mess of bad dialogue, the weak, unbalanced script featuring two dimensional characters that are both narcissitic and always sorry for themselves was a horrible experience to watch. I HOPE both of these actors are able to find a sympathetic director with a good script very SOON! Ugh....

It's a boring and worthless movie

It's really a waste of time ... meaningless and without its plot or problem, it's really ugly

Korean romcom rarely this bad

So terrible. Screenplay, acting, cast, directing, editing, camera works...all and all, all turned out to be so bad. All the actors were just so painful to watch, so pretentious, exaggerated...there's nothing recommendable on these non-talent actors. The screenplay was so badly scripted. Some male actors (if they could be called "actors") were too feminine looked and even stupid. The leading male actor acted like a vicious dog, barking all the time. This is a movie full of young people heavily transformed by plastic surgeries, so disgusting to watch.
