Great romantic comedy!

I loved this movie! The plot was unique and unpredictable. There was romance, drama, humor, and emotional scenes. The acting was great and the scenery was beautiful. Really well made movie!

A lot of heart

Omg that "I love you" scene literally happened to me in my real life! This film has a lot of heart behind it. I really enjoy the chemistry between the two leads. I also really like to see the city, San Francisco, as a character as well in the film. I never felt like the story was slow and the story really moved along. Well done.

THE VIEW FROM HERE pulls you in dramatically, just like the views from San Francisco!

THE VIEW FROM HERE pulls you in dramatically, just like the views from San Francisco! From the opening frame, I loved the look of "The City" that was captured and I felt it really matched the drama that unfolded on screen. I also loved the quirky production design and the chemistry between the lead actors was on point. The script and dialogue were also really well done, not cliché like so many indie drama's, even going so far as to allow some nice funny moments which only lent more realism to the "slice of life" story and characters. Highly recommend!

Great Romantic Comedy

Great story line! Clean, funny and moving, which can be hard to get these days. Loved how the flashbacks perfectly told the story and developed the main characters' relationship. Indie film so it isn't without its flaws, but overall the movie is captivating and one you want to watch till the very end.

Give it a chance

Yes. The Film is an Independent piece of work that does not compare to the big Hollywood budget films in it's genre but it definitely has a lot of heart. The overall photography was pretty well done and the story too. The actors could have been better. It seems like they struggled with there performances many times here and there. I thought that the direction was great minus the acting which was ok. I actually enjoyed it. It wasn't that bad as others mention online. Plus, it's an Indie Film so don't expect sold out box office results. It's more for those who appreciate these type of films and enjoys watching them and supporting the creators of such works. I'd say watch it for yourselve first, then make your OWN judgment.
