Materialists - Avaliações

Song’s vision of New York mirrors her vision of romantic love: it’s all struggle and hope, with dreams dashed repeatedly but not abandoned.

Love itself may remain a mystery, but the way “Materialists” feels about it is not. Just don’t fall for the shiny package.

As romantic as Materialists is, it’s also realistic which makes it so watchable.

It’s an insightful, if imperfect, piece worthy of your affections.

...manages to use the romance genre and its tropes to tell a new, refreshing, fierce and magical tale that left me swooning and pondering what I know about love and life.

...remains clear-eyed, even as it makes the happily-ever-after seem possible after all.

...portraying how humanity has evolved (and in some cases, retained) its reasons for marriage to exist.

…a quiet but powerful meditation on what we want versus what we need.

...far from perfect, but that doesn’t mean it’s not worthy of a date.

...a movie that can’t decide if it’s a romcom, a farce, or a dark drama.

Finally a romcom that admits earning less than your partner can be a passion killer.

...is messy in a good way – there’s a lot to chew on here, and Lucy in particular feels recognizably unresolved...

Thanks to Song's artistic conviction, "Materialists" feels like a breath of fresh air, to the rom-com and to cinema in general.

...there is something undeniably pleasing about watching gorgeous people intelligently navigate love in a meaningful way.
