Terrible plotline, terrible acting. Nothing original here. Was forced to watch it because the partner wanted to see this. Took so much self control to stop myself from gouging my eyes out. The music was ok. Who writes rubbish like this and who approves it? They definitely have no experience with dealing with real human beings otherwise they wouldn't have made such two dimensional characters. People fight over one person hugging another. They cry over nothing. They are bad to each other and selfish. Very bad example for impressionable kids who watch it.

Complete waste of time. Don't make the same mistake I did.

Filipino movies are so cringy to watch, and I don't like it. Hated because I don't like their characters who's always looking on the phone for one of their live streams, but also they're dating each other which means they're inviting people to go on. I rate 1 out of 10 cause i hate it. The moral of the story is, appropriate boundaries and how to connect a romantic partner. I hate watching Tagalog movies!! Their actors in the film is least!!

Right, well I figured that I would sit down and watch the 2021 Filipino romantic comedy "Love at First Stream" as it was a movie that I hadn't already seen. Nor had I actually ever heard about the movie prior to sitting down to watch it.

I must admit that I was expecting this to be a run-of-the-mill romantic comedy. You know, those that come a dime a dozen; girl meets boy, girl dislikes boy, girl starts to have feeling for boy, girl falls in love with boy, and girl gets boy.

However, writers Kookai Labayen, Isabella Policarpio, Ella A. Palileo and Cathy Garcia-Molina actually managed to put together a storyline that differed from the usual generic formula that many romantic comedies tend to follow. And that was definitely something that counted for something.

But the storyline was not one that I enjoyed. Why? Well, because I simply have zero interest in Vloggers and their self-absorbed demeanors and self-promoting ways. Nothing about the Vlog culture and the pathetic desire to upload videos of one-self on social media platforms have any appeal to me. So I must say that "Love at First Stream" was a swing and a miss.

I simply gave up on the storyline about halfway through. By then I just couldn't take any more of what director Cathy Garcia-Molina was dishing out.

The acting performances in the movie were fair enough. Needless to say that given my limited exposure to Filipino cinema means that I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in this movie.

"Love at First Stream" is not a movie that I will ever return to attempt to finish watching, simply because the whole Vlogging thing has zero appeal to me.

My rating of "Love at First Stream" lands on a generous three out of ten stars, and that is based on the production value of the movie and the acting performances, not on the storyline, nor on its entertainment value. I am sure, though, there is a younger audience out there for a movie such as "Love at First Stream".
