I'm Not in Love

Rob is not sure about his long-term relationship...and is even less sure when an old flame turns up, and his current girlfriend suddenly wants to get married!

A gentle comedy/drama film, with some genuinely funny moments blended together with well observed drama. Beautifully directed and shot, the acting is very believable and there is even an appearance of the actress who played "Raquel" in "Only Fools and Horses"!

Recommended.

This film should tell you to cut your losses and move on if it aint working. No need to torture yourself the way this film rationalizes human behaviour. The guy is a pushover and the women are mostly ridiculous.

A refreshing look at the question of 'the one' - some really sweet performances and a relief to see some different faces on the screen as well as some old time faves!

Positive reviews are all single use accounts whose only activity in IMDB is to positively and gushingly rate/review this absolutely terrible, atrociously paced nonsense. And this is British? The Brits have the greatest actors in the world. Did they have to scour the gutter somewhere to find the only dozen brits who can't act at all?

Second, this is pitched as an anti-rom-com, and specifically as more realistic. Uhm, 40 year old never married women don't get married to men their age, they have to marry 60 year olds. Like it or not, that is the data. This guy, and any 40 year old employed guy, is going to be dating/marrying someone in their late 20's early 30s. He is going to have them chasing him in droves.

Here's the thing about rom-coms. You really need to think out of the box, make something creative to stand out. "I'm not in Love" fails to do that. The one liners fell flat, the chemistry between Rob and his friends fell flat, some scenes felt like watching a theater play.

The love story looked forced. The stand out performer was Cristina Cataline. She did a fine job but that's about it. There's nothing new in the movie, you've seen everything before.
