Materialistas

It’s an insightful, if imperfect, piece worthy of your affections.

Thanks to Song's artistic conviction, "Materialists" feels like a breath of fresh air, to the rom-com and to cinema in general.

...there is something undeniably pleasing about watching gorgeous people intelligently navigate love in a meaningful way.

...it acknowledges that happiness is sometimes a very bad financial decision, but that a happy life with a partner is also not something we can manufacture from numbers on an input form.

Love itself may remain a mystery, but the way “Materialists” feels about it is not. Just don’t fall for the shiny package.

...manages to use the romance genre and its tropes to tell a new, refreshing, fierce and magical tale that left me swooning and pondering what I know about love and life.
