My Movie Review: The movie is surprisingly good and very personal it's a touching tale of young queer love and the complications that come along with it, very casual feel to the movie, feels like watching people you may know, exceeds my expectation thought quite a hidden gem! Anne+ The Film is provocative doesn’t shy away from sexy stuff, presenting us with intimate, tender sex scenes for our leading lady and a relaxed attitude towards the nudity as one whole:) I found the movie incredibly well acted and way too close to home whether your queer or not, never seen anything so close to our lives on film before that moves seemlessly it is absolutely amazing cause it's funny, it's heartwarming, the story never goes bad even there's ocstacle! Anne is a cool funny beautiful character, the production quality is pretty good, the soundtrack is nothing wild and the writing, at some times lack but good visuals make up for it as long as the characters worked and the plot was sometimes too chill as I would recommend this to anyone:) If you haven’t seen the series that preceded Anne+: The Film, you’ll still be able to jump right in; the film does a nice job at recapping and also tosses in some flashbacks for good measure! The young ensemble helps to bring this version of Amsterdam to life, so natural and effortless that some of film feels documentary-like. Coming-of-age stories often get caught up with the teen years, but there’s a whole different coming-of-age that happens in your twenties, and Anne+: The Film sums it up perfectly. There might not particularly thrilling or monumental that occurs in Anne+: The Film, but it feels real, a chapter from one young woman’s story that many of us can relate, whether we’ve walked down all the same paths or not' it's presented in truths:)
Critics Reviews: I’m perfectly satisfied with Anne+: The Film goes. It has a fun time, great characters and relationships, some of the most explicit sex scenes in a feature film, and so much for going for it.You might enjoy Anne’s company for ninety minutes, but she’ll be like an acquaintance you make on a plane; fine to pass the time, but you’ll forget their existence by the time you’ve picked up your bags. If you’re looking for a movie that feels like the experience of hanging out at A-Camp, Anne+ is for you. One Audience Review: I sincerely don't think there is a better made queer/lgbt film than this one! You can tell that the cast is familiar in and with the scene so all the messages really come across and make for a realistic portrayal. I'll agree! Things are changing quickly for the lead Anne (Hanna Van Vliet), the twenty-something living in Amsterdam and putting all her energy into writing a book. Her girlfriend Sara (Jouman Fattal) moves to Montreal for a job and the two agree to open their relationship, though once Anne knows Sara is seeing someone else, she begins to feel a bit uneasy about it. Anne is set to join Sara in Montreal in just few months, but she’s plagued by second thoughts about it, wondering if it’s the right call to follow her overseas. Thorn Roos de Vries makes quite the impression as Lou, the nonbinary person Anne first sees performing as a drag king and forms a bit of a crush on. It’s hard to believe that Lou is the nonbinary character in a Dutch movie, but they feel right at home in the world of Anne+, that' thanks to Thorn de Vries’s natural, charming performance:)
