This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

This is the most adorable love story I've ever have seen. It is so full with true love and heartache, it melts my heart every time I see it.I adore Stana Katic in this movie. It's the first one she has a brilliant role in. All other movies didn't give her a chance...It's played with so much nature in the characters, it is simply beautiful to watch and listen. I never ever get enough of this movie, have Tod watch it again and again. So please be Warner, you may be addicted after watching. But not just to the movie also to Stana Katic.Filming it black&white is perfectly chosen.Sorry for my bad English it's not my native language.

Have you ever strolled with your girlfriend down the street in the perfect mutual moment and wished somebody photographed the both of you at the right angle and turned it into a postcard? That's what this film feels like from beginning to end.For Lovers Only is a completely intoxicating assault on the senses. They completely capture the intimacy of human touch; someone stroking your hair, nibbling your ear, the saliva strings between kisses, stroking their fingers across your back while clamping their legs around you in a deep embrace. It's every picture-perfect chocolaty moment that any hopeless romantic would love to experience.Stana Katic looks divine; her beauty makes me want to cry. Suffice to say, she gives a good performance. Mark Polish is fine but his performance is hidden beneath his sunglasses. Together they both make a believable couple and most importantly create the mutual overwhelming rush of passion. Also noteworthy is the film's sensuous soundtrack, of which I listened through the film's closing credits.Romantic as it is, the Polish brothers also present an insightful examination of love. Relationships are spatial and temporal, and we are confined by how close we are and how much time we have. It's always in moments of ecstasy where time zips by, you begin counting the seconds before the moment is gone. For Lovers Only incorporates this into its film language, most notably in its montage sequences.Here we see how love amplifies everything up to eleven, how everything becomes life and death (which justifies the dreamy black and white cinematography). And how there is only one person for you in the entire world, right before you wake up and snap out of it. Through the sweet and the sour, we realize Sofia and Yves are intertwined in this moment of passion because of their past relationship and by the romantic excitement of their chance encounter. It's suddenly romantic when they're reminded how they are so used to each other. But does familiarity make a lasting relationship? That becomes the film's central question, but they leave it up for the audience to answer themselves.In the end, unlike the typical Hollywood romance, this film chooses the emotional journey of love over the final result of whether love is obtained. For Lovers Only is a bittersweet dark chocolate of a film and I recommend every romantic couple have a 89-minute affair with it.For more reviews, please visit my film blog at http://hkauteur.wordpress.com/

Goodbye Stana you have lost a fan! You have continually disappointed in every movie choice you have made thus far in your film roles as far as I am concerned. The few that I have actually seen completely and the trailers of the others and all those YouTube clips of her escapades with snorting drugs, alcohol consumption in excess, lesbianism, nudity, adultery, murder, and her constant use of her apparent favorite word (F***) in various forms, noun, adjective, describing a cast member,etc. She is not timid about using it in interviews, nor how proud she is FOL and the Polish brothers for giving her the chance to do this offensive film. Mark said in his interview, he still has the e-mail she sent begging to do their film. Elsewhere it was reported that she wanted it so bad she did it to free, no salary just a portion of the profits if it made any money by just being sold through digital services. Makes me wonder what she really wanted from doing this film? She's a great talent, she fooled me for a long time, I actually believed she was a decent individual just by her role of Beckett. Guess I know better now. I will never watch another of her movies, when Castle is canceled or she leaves the show to pursue more detrimental pursuits to ruin our culture and our young people; I will not be watching anything she is in until her heart is changed and her life is back on track to reaffirm her fans and our young people that those things she has shown them how to do can kill them. But that is not a surprise, Hollywood and its minions have been destroying this countries morals for years and our youth with their constant lies of do whatever you want, to whoever you want, whenever you want your not responsible and somebody else will have to face the consequences of your actions!

What can I say after seeing utter perfection!This film has an excellent cast, heartfelt storyline and a beautiful score. But to me It didn't feel as though I were watching a film; it was more like visiting an art gallery and seeing the works of art move in front of your eyes. Its visually stunning, perfect lighting and location.I can't recommend this film more then I do. Its just so refreshing to see a film, not some Hollywood blockbuster that makes no sense, but a film, about love, life and sacrifice. Don't miss out on this one, you'll die with regrets..
