I didn't see the movie as a love story

Rating: 4/10 (5 October 2019)

Although it's absurd to portray a BDSM relationship as simply abusive, and the characters are boring cardboard cutouts, some of that I quite enjoyed. Occasionally it makes fun of itself and can genuinely deserve a smile. This film is quite well shot visually, with balanced, eye-catching frames and beautiful Seattle landscape visuals. The soundtrack and songs were really tonally perfect, although I didn't see the movie as a love story as much as an off-balance portrayal of a group of people already degraded and misunderstood.
