    Good Movie

    Movie was captivating and held my attention. Nice view for an evening at home movie. Actor and Actress played their parts well.

    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.

    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!
