About
You’ll likely connect with this if you want a raw, realistic look at love’s highs and lows, with humor mixed into the hurt; Not for you if you need light escapism or tidy romance like Polisse.
Pros: intense, realistic relationship drama; strong performances; gripping emotional ride | Cons: long runtime; tough, heavy themes; uneven character depth
