Love Object Audience Reviews

KnotMissPriceless Why so much hype?
Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
ElijahCSkuggs Sex dolls. Who doesn't like them. They're funny looking and you can have sex with them. Well I wouldn't but Bud Bundy and Kenneth Winslow would. Kenneth is your average, lonely worker drone. Due to a little prank a fellow work buddy pulls on him, he completely switches gears from lonely, nerd worker to sex-crazed doll humper. With a swipe of the old credit card and a deduction of 10,000 bucks, Ken is now living it up with one hot piece of plass-tic. Everything's going great with his new girl "Nikki". They have a sex-filled life and that void in Kenneth finally seems to be filled. But things fall apart when Ken realizes co-worker pal Lisa (who he made Nikki look like) is showing him some interest. He's now focusing more on Lisa than Nikki. And this is not sitting well at the Winslow household. People are going nuts, dolls are strangling people, tattoos on boobs....Ken needs to take control of the situation or things might get a little complicated. Find out what happens to Kenneth's girls, Rip Torn and Udo Kier in Love Object.Well, this is a movie that I heard is supposed to be pretty good, a sleeper if you will, since it's not very known. And I wouldn't be surprised if it does begin to become well known, I can see this little flick having a nice little following. Personally, I enjoyed Love Object more than I thought I would. It has some nice acting, and a neat little story that feels like a fresh breath of air. Even though the movie has probably been done before in some fashion. One thing that kept jumping out at me is the way Love Object was shot, it felt like it's a made for TV movie. Obviously it can't be since there's sex, nudity, violence and swears, but it felt like I was watching a Network movie.....if that makes any sense. Well anyways, Love Object was a pretty neat movie that is definitely worth checking out and it without a doubt falls into the realm of sleeper hits that became cult hits like May or Ginger Snaps. 7.5 outta 10
FilmFatale Fantastic, incredible little movie that slipped in under the radar. I could kick myself for not seeking it out sooner.Things start off simple enough with nerdy technical writer Kenneth being given a large project and a new assistant named Lisa. Kenneth has trouble relating to the flesh and blood Lisa, so he creates a double - a lifelike sex doll named Niki. Niki gives Kenneth the confidence he needs to succeed in real life with work and with Lisa. But when Lisa finds out about Niki, Kenneth's life and mind take a turn for the worse.Dreamy Desmond Harrington is amazing as Kenneth. His transformation from geek to dreamboat to psychopath is seamless and incredibly frightening. Melissa Sagemiller acquits herself nicely as Lisa, and Rip Torn is delightful as the boss. One of my favorites.
The_Void Love Object received an incognito release a few years back, and this is unfortunate as what we have here is a film that takes a very basic idea (albeit one that I've not seen used before) and crafts and inventive and somewhat frightening little film out of it. The only film really similar to this that I can think of is Lucky McKee's oddball gem 'May', which seems to be gaining more and more fans all the time; and this makes Love Object's releasing all the more unfortunate, as this is a film that could definitely win itself a dedicated cult following. The film focuses on Kenneth Winslow - he's an everyday guy with an everyday sort of job at a place that prints instruction manuals. His life takes a turn one day when his co-workers introduce him to Nikki - a lifelike doll on sale on the internet for a whopping $10,000. He decides to buy the doll, and after becoming acquainted with it - quickly falls in love. However, he's also starting to get on with his lovely female co-worker...and this 'upsets' his $10,000 plastic love object, leading to the emergence of a strange love triangle.Going into this film; I was worried that the plot might not be able to stretch the running time - but there's enough else going on to ensure that Love Object doesn't become boring. The production values are high considering that this obviously wasn't a big budget film, and the acting is also rather good. The central performance is delivered by a shy looking Desmond Harrington, and he has good chemistry with his female co-star, Melissa Sagemiller. To the cult fan, however, the most interesting performance in the movie comes from Udo Kier - and while he's not really given the opportunity to make a big mark on the film, it's always good to see him. Rip Torn also plays a part, and along with Kier; makes the movie more memorable. Director Robert Parigi gets the audience into the film because the people in it are largely very realistic; the leads aren't overly good/bad looking and they don't have unlikely jobs, so the film is easy to get on with for normal people who have never spent any time with a sex doll. The film seems like it should have a point...but if there is one, I couldn't detect it. "Don't have sex with a rubber doll" is about the best I can do on that front. However, the film is interesting throughout and ends with a good twist...so Love Object definitely comes recommended.
Jessica Carvalho ''Love Object '' starts looking an average movie, showing the weird and lonely Kenneth Winslow, a technical writer, who starts having a bizarre obsession by Nikki, a rubber sex doll that he ordered, while developing a crush in his assistant Lisa. Kenneth goes to the point of talking, arguing and even feeling "stalked" by Nikki, and that's when the bizarre things starts to happen in his behavior.The cool thing about this movie ,is the end,that is totally unexpected and the total opposite that you could believe that would happen. That's why I give this movie the nice vote of 7, because the plot itself, is very simple and nothing special. The good message present, is that many people who look 'normal' or calm, like Kenneth, can have bad intentions behind their acts and even act like maniacs,while others can make us have false judgments about them, but are good people, like Kenneth's landlord, who tries to help Lisa from Kenneth's sick ideas of transforming her into Nikki.
