Descobertas do Amor (2018)

This is not Romeo and Juliet!

Firstly this is not your usual love story drama, so if you're not okay with more realistic movies, you shouldnt watch it.
People nowdays are so used to dramas with the perfect ending, with all the "They Lived Happily Ever After" that they forget real life is not always that easy.
This is one of the good things about this movie, they tried to be more REALISTIC.
I got a lot more to say but don't want to spoil anything.
All i gotta say is: watch it if you're okay with realism.

I do think all the "fantasy" scenes were kinda too funny to be taken seriously, they could have done something better about that tbh

A girls love dorama. But again, does it worth?

This was pretty much average. It started okay but soon turned out to be 'meh'.
There was no chemistry between the characters (except maybe between the pair of friends: the main heroine and the short-haired girl. Sorry, I am writing this review right after watching this dorama but I don´t even remember their names anymore).

The tomboy-like senior was lifeless (was I watching a human or a doll?). I understand they chose her because of the Romeo role she would take, but her character kinda of spoiled the whole experience, which is a shame cause otherwise this dorama had potential for a bit more.

As for the ending, it was not happy nor sad; maybe bittersweet? But in general I would say the ending was kinda of okay-ish - you know when you finished watching something and then "oh, is that it? Well, okay". It was in general an "empty" dorama? If I can put it like that.

The scenes I could say I enjoyed most were those of the girl taking the role of the director. We don´t know what was on her mind (although we could have an overall idea), so those scenes were bringing a bit of suspense/tension to the dorama.

I don´t think this dorama is 'The Realistic Dorama'. In my opinion it´s nothing special. The "Romeo and Juliet" idea is not new, and it´s used here and then as an excuse for girls love / shoujo-ai. I believe the charm of this dorama is the setting, which is in (middle/high)school.

CONCLUSION: If you are just looking for a simple girls love / shoujo-ai to enjoy without having to think much and don´t minding the lack of story/plot, then this might please you. Otherwise this dorama is 'skippable'.

PS.: I might sound a bit harsh/crude here, but this is just a straightforward way of conveying my opinion without beating around the bush xD
PS2.: Please, consider just the overall score. Although story and music weren´t memorable at all, so instead of choosing a low random score, I decided to choose 1.
