Lovesick Ellie

weird but also cute?

Okay so this is actually so ridiculous but I some how really also love it😂The beginning was very rough but for some reason I kept watching. It was actually pretty cute and I enjoyed it a lot. It’s a very simple story that I think is misunderstood because people will drop it by only watching the beginning.

Synopsis of the story
The story starts off very weird with a what seems to be just a perverted girl who has a hugh crush on the handsome popular guy. She has a social media page that is dedicated to posting fantasies about her and this handsome popular guy. pretty weird start😂
*******MINOR SPOILERS AHEAD********
However you see them start to interact with each other in multiple weird but oddly cute scenes. We start to realize throughout that they are just two lonely souls. In the ML case just wants someone to see the real him and like him for who he really is and in the FL case just wants someone to love and to feel seen with. Very simple but heartwarming story that I think is maybe misunderstood. I think this would have done better if it was a 12 episode drama or anime. But plz give it a shot very enjoyable short cute movie🩷

Cringeworthy nostalgia

I really enjoyed it! It felt like a sweet trip down memory lane for my inner child. Thirteen-year-old me would have absolutely loved this movie, so I gave it a seven! Watching it now made me realize just how much my tastes have evolved, and that’s definitely a good thing. Sure, there were some cringeworthy moments, but it was fascinating to compare my feelings about plots now with how I felt when I was younger. That was really the reason I wanted to watch this film. It’s the kind of swoon-worthy, lovey-dovey movie that’s just fun to enjoy, even if it's not exactly my usual cup of tea.

Super cute and fun movie to watch! *manga version has more in-depth details to their story!

When I first saw the trailer for this movie, it looked like a fun and typical romance J-movie I would enjoy watching. I recognized the main actor but hadn’t seen the main actress in anything so I looked forward to their collaboration. I watched the movie back in like Sept/Oct 2024 and just rewatched it recently. I have seen and read the comments about the actress’s cringey acting but I think it just adds more personality to her character especially since she fantasizes a lot lol. I also think it brought an “anime” feel to her character of being dramatic and exaggerative.

Anyways, this movie was very enjoyable and fulfilled my love for J-drama/movies. The second time round of watching it, I decided to read the manga version (not finished reading yet) and I definitely recommend reading that version because it has so much more in-depth cute and fun details about their relationship. Also, Ellie is more perverted in the manga lol. Like her tweets are so perverted and hilarious! One example- “The two of us at a lingerie shop <3 I asked him to pick one out, and he said, ‘If you ask me, I’ll choose one that’s easier to take off than to wear. Are you sure about that?’ <3 Let’s go for a G-string, then!”

For the most part, the movie version was 80% identical to the manga version based on what they showed. For example, in the manga-Omi regularly reads Ellie’s fantasizing tweets about him, Sara knows about Ellie’s twitter (Ellie told her about it), and the deep past between Omi and Aoba is revealed.

In another person’s review, they mentioned how they thought a drama production would’ve been better and I definitely agree! A drama would allow them to show more details about their relationship and display more things from the manga that the movie didn’t include!
This movie is a fun and cute watch especially if you enjoy the typical J-movies!

Not worth the time, pretty bland and forgettable

This movie is about as forgettable as it could be. It features very classic shojo manga tropes. Sometimes a well made classic can be of course highly satisfying, especially if it showcases some interesting twists. Here, it was unfortunately not the case.

I did not feel the chemistry between the main actor and the main actress...And the romance felt unfortunately very lacking. I found that the female lead was overacting, which was part of the point as her character lives fantasies in her head...But I found that pretty poor. The male led should also have been more swoony, instead he felt too bland.

I would not recommend this movie to people as I feel there are better high school romance out there. I have not read the original material and honestly, this live adaptation did not convince me to give it a try.

This movie does not deserve 9 stars but I loved it

Okay I am going to be honest, this movie was cringe, it was imperfect, it does not deserve 9 stars. But I really, really loved it and it made me smile so much and I had to fight the urge to rewatch it immediately after finishing it! I can't rate it lower!

It was so cute. I loved her expressions and how cute she was and the same with him! Despite all the cringe, I found them to be so cute together and I really loved the movie despite knowing how flawed it was. I can't really tell you why I loved this movie so much, but I really, really did. It may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it certainly was mine!

Adorable Watch

I was anticipating the release of this movie because I’m a huge fan of the manga. Lovesick Ellie tells a hilariously adorable story of high school love and self-discovery. Going into the movie, I knew that many parts of the manga would be cut or changed since it would be impossible to fit it all into a movie adaption. However, I was so happy seeing some of my favorite scenes portrayed in the live-action. There were several changes made in the movie that I felt were unnecessary or kinda felt unnatural to the characters in the manga, so just a warning if you’re watching it expecting it to be a direct adaption of the manga it isn’t quite that. I still really enjoyed the storyline of the movie, and I think the pacing of it was good as it stayed mostly loyal to the manga.
My favorite part of the movie was definitely the casting. I think they really nailed the casting for Ellie and Oumi. Both actors did such a good job in the acting, and I think they were really cute together! I saw some people complaining about the overacting from Ellie, but dramatic and embarrassing reactions is literally Ellie to her core. I wish we got to see more of the side characters, but they did a good job in their limited time. Overall, this was a fun and entertaining watch. It wasn’t as funny as the manga, but if you’re looking for something cute and entertaining I would highly recommend!
