When It Rains in LA

I'm not a critic but I am a movie buff.

Pros : It has a real story. It was not 2 hours long. At the end it made me think. Cons : It could be move things faster. I would like to know more about the characters.

Among all the garbage I watched this year, this When it Rains in LA was definitely not bad. Not sure about the budget, but it was better than nosferatu, cause I don't need to watch special effects unless I am playing video games. It had a story that actually made sense enough to keep me looking back at it. If Timothy Chalamet was in it, it could be a 9/10. But I give the new young actors credit, so even though I would like to give a 6, I will make it a 7, cause maybe one of them will be in some big series soon. Who knows? I see the potential, but definitely could have been done more interesting. Overall though it had me 50% into it, I wanted to know...

Better than 75% of movies I saw last year. LA rain, Euro girl and weird LA people, that's a decent mix that I like to see. I felt like I was watching the worst of my last 4 roommates. I mean it's entertaining but gritty. I literally wanted to see them taken out, so that was rewarding. I don't think it deserves a 1 it's def above a 5. I'm not a critic but it's still better music than Challengers. Okay okay it's indie movie but it's got sort of a weird thing it does to my head afterwards, it's like the scenes are reposting in my mind that's why I came to write a review but you have to like suspense in a film I guess, I would like to see some variations to it.

You have to LIKE THRILLERS. I never write reviews, but this film kept me curious. You will either like it, not like it, or fall somewhere in the middle. But that is what makes a movie interesting. How it hits everyone differently. Right?

Compared to other Thrillers, this one at least keeps you thinking. The acting was above average compared to studios with overpaid talent, this one kept me wondering about what I was going to see next.

But I am giving higher rating because of the music, it kept me in the right mood, and while the story ran a little quickly, it still kept its feel from beginning to end. If you were looking for a horror, it's not quite there, but a thriller for sure with a drama attached to it.

When It Rains in LA was an entertaining and visually captivating film. The rain-soaked streets of Los Angeles provided a unique and atmospheric backdrop that added to the story's charm. The performances were solid, and the plot kept me engaged throughout. While it didn't quite reach the emotional depth I was hoping for, it was still a memorable experience. Overall, it's a beautifully crafted movie that's well worth watching for its entertainment value and stunning visuals. You will be pleased if you spend time watching this movie. It wont win awards but its good enough to watch this movie. Its what la need right now actually rain.

Watching When It Rains in LA feels less like a cinematic experience and more like stumbling onto a college film project that somehow made it to streaming. From the first scene, it's clear: this is not a professional production. The acting is wooden at best, with line deliveries so flat and forced you'd think the cast met the script five minutes before cameras rolled. Emotional moments fall completely flat, often provoking confusion or second-hand embarrassment rather than empathy.

The cinematography doesn't help. Scenes are lit like a YouTube vlog, with shaky camera work and awkward framing that constantly pulls you out of the story-what little of it exists. There's no visual style, no cohesion, and no sense that anyone behind the camera had a plan beyond just hitting "record."
