Review of Licorice Pizza (2021) by Cinemapete — 15 Feb 2022

Licorice Pizza was such a disappointment. While the performances are very good, the two leads are not particularly charismatic. The biggest problem I have with the story is the premise that a 15-year old boy and a 25-year old woman are falling in love, which is kinda creepy.

There are some funny bits, but, overall, this very long and boring movie seems like lots of different scenes strung together that don't really make a compelling or cohesive narrative. I didn't like or care about these characters, and the situations they found themselves in were improbable and pointless.
