There are no surprises, but for once there’s a set of artsy millennial characters who feel like real humans, and Berlin looks great. Read full review

Holdridge and Saasen should get credit for making sure the obstacles to their happiness aren’t romance-movie contrivances, but rather the sorts of things that—to paraphrase another famous writer—happen to people while they’re busy making other plans. Read full review

The quiet honesty of Anderson and Lina's interactions and raw, often handheld camerawork wash away the film's meandering pace and sometimes grating dialogue. Read full review

While this tale of a couple experiencing myriad romantic ups and downs has its occasional amusing and insightful moments, Meet Me in Montenegro doesn't quite render its characters' foibles endearing. Read full review

Holdridge and Saasen simply lack the acting chops to carry their feature, leaving them with a scenic but indulgent selfie of a big-screen romance. Read full review

I loved this movie. I created an account just to write this review after seeing the low ball scores it received. This is a throw back film, a love story. It has a great cast, great story line and kept me and my wife guessing where it was going. If you are looking to watch something fresh andI loved this movie. I created an account just to write this review after seeing the low ball scores it received. This is a throw back film, a love story. It has a great cast, great story line and kept me and my wife guessing where it was going. If you are looking to watch something fresh and different, this is for you. If you are looking for another version of the same old recycled junk, well you probably aren't even reading this. Beautifully captured city life too! Lots of great street art as well!… Expand
