Love Track: More than Stars

1/5 Love

Simple and quick. I didn’t even finish the pizza I ordered to eat while watching. I gave the pizza and the delivery 5 stars. Today we are really putting stars on everything, so I’ll also put 8.5 out of 10 stars on this cute drama. In it, we have a romantic relationship based on 1 out of 5 stars. How could someone enjoy a 1-star pizza or a 1-star movie, and how could one develop a relationship with a 1-star person? But the point is that it is not always about stars. That is what the title suggests: there is more than stars, and the two main characters, provoked by a 1-star rating, begin their romance. Simple as that.

This is not a comedy, but the light, relaxed tone will put a smile on your face while you watch it. The actors are quite good and match each other well, even though the stars on their profiles suggest otherwise. My only complaint is that it ended too quickly, but the point about the relativity of star ratings is well presented.

Average with a bit of fun

Things I loved

1 The premise. I thought it was original and would be funny to explore. It was until it wasn't.

Things I liked

1 The first half. Their first meeting. It was well done and made me want to see more.

2 The FL. She played well the role and I was with her all the way.

Things I disliked

1 The ML. It's not about the character. The character was irritating but he also had his funny moments. It was the actor who bothered me, more specifically his micro expressions. It's like he tried too hard to be the character. I know it doesn't make much sense, but sometimes he was natural and sometimes cringe.

2 The attempt to make it deep. It wasn't. It should have been better as a funny segment. The encounter with the ex was anticlimactic and didn't like it. It irritated me actually since it was done with one purpose. To explain why he was so obsessed with ratings. As I said, it wasn't needed and it wasn't deep enough to make us care. It would be better leave it alone.
