Reviews

Love, Virus, and Unexpected Hope
I'm just a simple person—give me the virus if it means curing my depression and finding the love of my life, just like in this filmWhat really stood out to me is how well this movie progressed, especially considering it was filmed in 2019—the same year COVID-19 began. Despite the timing, the story feels surprisingly relevant today. The filmmakers incorporated terms and themes that we now use daily, making the experience feel current and relatable
I also appreciated how the film offered insight into viruses in an educational yet entertaining way. It wasn’t just about drama or romcom—it gave me something to think about. The way it explored scientific ideas without overwhelming the viewer was refreshing
Overall, it's a unique blend of emotion, science, light-laughter in mundane days, and realism. I didn’t expect to connect with it as much as I did, but here we are. Definitely worth a watch
Gemini, play Bloom by Dabin and Dia Frampton for me :")
