The Girl Who Invented Kissing Audience Reviews

Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!
Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Gordon-11 This film is about a mysterious woman who enters the lives of two brothers.From the title, I thought the film is a teenage romantic comedy. But it is far from that. It deals with deeper issues such as the yearning for connection, brotherhood and trust. I feel much sympathy for Victor, he is a nice person and he is a character that draws you to him. It is also refreshing to see a character with a hearing impairment, which is not often seen on screen.
cblomme33 I noticed many 9 & 10 star reviews. One review raved but mistakenly gave a 1/10, trying to give 10/10 i believe based on what they wrote, thus affecting the overall aggregate rating which should be higher. This movie deserves an 8/10 based on reviews
robharrand This is a phenomenal picture. I haven't enjoyed a film this much in a long time, and I have no friends, so I watch a lot of movies. It's a refreshing, uniquely written, feel good story that I'm not going to explain. Just watch it. The entire experience felt effortless and real and easily absorbed.The acting was outstanding, especially Dash Mihok as Victor and Suki Waterhouse, as "The Girl", who also did a commendable job. Their relationship was both entirely believable and adorable. Let's not forget about the score. It was literally perfect. Rich in atmosphere, charming, and perfectly suited for each scene. I found myself "Shazamming several songs throughout the movie.It's a real shame a movie of this quality goes under the radar because there isn't an "A-list" actor involved. In fact, too many movies are overshadowed by A-list actors and the the roles they are famous for.For example, had Victor been played by Anthony Hopkins instead of Dash Mihok, I'm pretty sure I would have been wondering when Hannibal Lector was going to bite the girl's face off, rather than fall innocently in love with her, if you catch my drift. With that being said, had Emma Stone or Ellen Paige or Ryan Gosling been casted, this gets nominated for an Oscar or Golden Globe, no question. I guess that's just part of the politics of show business. Lame indeed.Regardless, this is one of the most enjoyable movies I've had the pleasure of watching, in a long time. It's that good and shouldn't be missed.Highly, highly recommended.
Gar Conn I thought it had a slow start to the point I almost turned it off. Fortunately, it was just weird enough to hold my attention until I was interested. It's a good film with a good story, but it is a bit on the sad side. See it with your significant other.
