Dating Amber Reviews
Comic and heart whelming movie, great a actors and a brutal storyline. You will not regret watching it
A must see movie. Irish are the best singers and actors.
Nice coming-of-age film.
I just love everything about this movie, the cinematography, the acting, the story, everything.
“You’re gay!” “Gay for…boobs!” Oh Eddie, you are a bit of a boob. But we love ya.
I really wasn't expecting too much from the film, but I wasn't pleasantly surprised at how good it was. The main characters had a special believable chemistry. For everyone who was a little different, this film teaches a lesson for them and everyone, learn to love and accept who you are, only then can you truly love another.
A wonderful, touching Irish movie that'll have you laughing one minute and teary eyed the next.
This is a beautiful film. Wonderfully acted, convincing and heart felt. A sheer joy
Delightful performances, compelling story but the ending felt flat, out of synch and underdeveloped. Otherwise 87 minutes of terrific moviemaking and then five final minutes of headscratching.
My new favorite movie!! Though I may be a bit biased as a teen lesbian myself, I found "Dating Amber" to be a fresh and breathtaking story that I'd never seen before on screen. Finn O'Shea is more than believable as Eddy and his internal battles are enough to make even the hardest heart begin to beat faster, and contrasts the gorgeous and spunky Lola Petticrew perfectly. Despite her endearingly slightly stereotyped exterior of hair-dyed oddball, the character inside is so uniquely genuine and moraled that she is near-impossible not to love. Though the film showcases a coming out story, it diverts from the typical lengthened parental struggle with sexuality to an unconditional caring by imperfect parents too rarely shown on 온라인카지노추천. the characters are far from perfect, but all irreverently funny and most lovable nonetheless, many scenes don't seem to take themselves too seriously but nevertheless feel impactful and painstakingly paced. Even halfway through I could tell that this was a film that got me more than any ever had, and though it's not for everybody perhaps, it's simply breathtaking to me.
Watch it for the leads. The drama may leave you a little cold. The conclusion is a tad muddled. But the two bright, young headliners more than make up for it.
Dry; sometimes dark; occasionally twisted, this is brilliant. Love this style of comedy, and this approach to coming-of-age movies. The characters are brilliant, and the story - though typical of the genre, delivers some great moments
Dating Amber is an upbeat throwback to an era with a true underground (punk rock, zines, purple hair) and a dark mainstream (rampant and openly acceptable homophobia and misogyny). Amber embraces the former and is willing to accept she is attracted to women. Meanwhile, societal pressures of manhood and Eddie's own guilt and fear essentially send Eddie into a painful denial. The two decide to date, which, for Amber provides a chance to bide her time until she can escape to her punk rock underworld. But, for Eddie, it's a chance to actually become society's definition of normal. Needless to say, there are some bumps on this road. But the duo's journey to self actualization is humbling and in fact quite appropriate for today's audiences.
Good coming of age movie. I like how the focus leans more towards the internal battle of acceptance / coming out rather than external struggles.
Everyone deserves an Amber in their lives... Hell, we should all BE Amber. And I love how teenagers are actually ugly in this movies, makes it more relatable.
Definitely one of the best LGBT movie I watched - on point British comedy and the ending will leave you teary eyed
Hilarious queer movies. I laughed right up to the end, there I cried. The acting is amazing.
Being a teenager is hard enough. Being a gay teenager in a world which largely doesn't accept you for the way God made you is far worse. "Dating Amber" tells a story of two gay teens who just want to be left alone, and tells it beautifully.
