Bloomington

The movie didn't make sense almost right from the start. The relationship that started almost as soon as Catherine and Jackie met was hot, sure, but I didn't believe it. It's like you meet the characters and then BAM they're together. There was no build up at all and throughout the whole movie, it doesn't really get any better. When they have little arguments, it arises from nothing. They always contradict their actions with their words and vice versa.

The characters were beautiful, and I thought they could have made a really good lesbian movie. But unfortunately, I was wrong. I won't be watching this movie again or recommending it to anyone.

The story is a little flat is some areas but the chemistry between Jackie and Katherine is amazing! Could do without the motherly undertones in a few scenes. I found myself watching the movie over and over because of the relationship and chemistry the two have. I would love for the story to be developed more into a TV series. The movie was short and there wasn't much build up to the first hook up. I think there needs to be more character development. Definitely more scenes like the library scene! I think there needs to be more lesbian love stories on TV and the inappropriate relationship in this movie would make for an extremely captivating show.

I wanted to like this movie. However the chemistry between the actresses seemed non-existent.

The storyline was lacking depth. The characters were lacking dimension. It all seemed very surface level and was a movie that lacked any real emotion, very contrived in certain parts. The acting was mediocre at best.

It left you wanting...more. More depth, more emotion, something. I just didn't believe the two lead performances. Their connection didn't seem legitimate; I suppose that was the main issue, other than there not being any sort of plot development. It all felt very rushed and superficial.

I really wanted to like this film, but I saw no chemistry between the lead characters at all.

The character of Jackie exhibited no real emotional response to her professor, and the professor was totally casual throughout the film. I expected sparks to fly. You have a perfect setup, a great premise for the film with lots of genuine opportunity for conflict. Instead, it was as exciting as a paint by numbers picture. I really was disappointed that there was no real passion exhibited between any of the characters. Even the fights were subdued and drab.

As for the sex, if you are going to imply the sex, rather than show it(which is alright with me), at least make it implied passion.

The characters looked like they were just going through the motions.

It's a simple story, it reminded me of the movie "High Art" in the way the two characters get involved. Excellent chemistry between Allison McAtee and Sarah Stouffer.

It's not a work of art,you need to see it without high expectations. There are several raccord issues, the photography it's not the best but I know they filmed in digital and with a reduced budget so I understand that.To sum up, when we watch a movie like "Bloomington" we have to identify it as a low budget movie with a team that is still learning, but they are in the right path.

For all the team involved in this movie I just want to say: Your effort was worthwhile and ... I don't like the ending!! LOL
