    Luv

    by wiseone

    Saw the movie twice. Given the condensed time frame that the events occurred in (it all happened in a day), I thought for a depiction of what can frequently take place in "real life" that it was superb! The Baltimore culture was so well captured it Was eery. Highly recommend!

    Star-Studded

    Really good acting, but the storyline was missing a few elements that would have made it Stellar! Glad I saw it though. Loved the portrait of strong male characters; especially little Wood. He's a star in the making.

    Loved LUV

    This was/is a great movie for all people. Common really came through as a strong character that was very believable. The boy (Rainey) showed range and was a bit too quick of a study, which was/is understandable due to time constraints. Basically was a movie about the loss of innocence rather than coming of age. Great for teen boys and all adults

    The movie was engaging from start to finish. I'll definitely look to buy this one once it comes out on video!

    Thoughtful and Touching Story

    by

    I was not sure what to expect from this movie, but I was surprisingly delighted. The story gives you a view into the life of someone who has made mistakes in life, but wants more than to go back into that life and is willing to temporarily go back if there is a light at the end of that tunnel. I was impressed with how the lifestyle and tradition of Baltimore was well intrenched in this movie without coming off as fake or cheesy. Being from the area, I felt there was a sense of home in this film. I also felt the balance as far as good flirting with the bad. A man trying to teach a child how to become a man. Much of that is missing in the world today. I appreciate that Vincent attempted to instill principals within the child although he may not have had all the tools to do so. I highly recommend this movie!

    A very moving story

    Very well done film with a surprising number of well name stars. Good acting and writing. Pretty intense at times, smooth pace. I wish Common appeared in more films; he really is a good actor.

    Good movie ,slightly imbalanced

    Luv was star studded and the motives had intentions.at times the movie appeared to be predictable and a little truth stretchy, but in all a good movie

    Impressive For First-Time Director

    The story had amazing performances and the story had a lot of potential, though it was uneven at times. But definitely worth seeing, especially if you're an African-American man who wants to see a movie about the dangers of choosing a life of crime.
