Amore al quadrato

Filled with flat characters and with a story told in a super weird and confusing way, Squared Love wants to accompany 365 Days in the section of horrible polish movies.

"Squared Love" is a Comedy - Romance movie in which we watch a famous journalist starts rethinking his life and the choices he made after falling in love with a beautiful model. He has to find a way to approach her and a school teacher helps him to do so.

I did not have high expectations from this movie and I believe that it's a watchable, funny comedy movie that combines very well romance with comedy. The direction which was made by Filip Zylber was average and consisted of some cliché as most romance movie do but in general. The interpretations of both Adrianna Chlebicka who played as Monika / Klaudia and Mateusz Banasiuk who played as Enzo were good and the combination of them worked well. Finally, I have to say that "Squared Love" is an average movie but good enough to spend your time with.

I wouldn't say it's a waste of time, but I wouldn't say it's 10 stars either. It was average, but most romance movies are if you think about it. If you're looking for a comedy, this isn't it. It's like a plain pizza, but without too much cheese. It's not cheesy but rather just plain. If you want to kill time or have a nice self-care night, like I did, it's not bad. It's watchable. You're not going to be cringing in any of the scenes.

One thing I really want to mention is the subtitles. As someone whose native language is Polish, the subs aren't on point. It doesn't matter if you choose English or English CC, they're both missing a lot of context I'd say. A lot hasn't been translated well, and that can really make or break the movie I believe. There were parts I giggled at, but then I look over at the subs, and I'm like "Huh? That makes no sense."

Even still, listening to the original audio with the movie there's little to no character or plot development. The movie, or should I say story, transitions from one to the next in an odd way. It doesn't shift smoothly, we're like "oh well we are here now. Okay. Sure." There's nothing to hate and nothing to really draw my attention to really. Plain like a pizza that doesn't have enough cheese or toppings or anything really is the best way to describe this.

Reviews which range from 1 to 10 demonstrate some rather picky reviewers. The leads are attractive, the plot is ingenious, the subsidiary characters all make their contribution and it sounds as if the original dialogue is pretty good but spoiled by average subtitling. The doom-mongers all write like professional critics ; for normal people who enjoy romcoms this is a decent evening's entertainment

There are great, good and bad movies from Poland, the latter belongs to the last category. It is not even a movie, but a collection of separate episodes....i guess the director missed some semesters at the university or passed directing to the cleaning staff..... It is not worth your time....
