Secret Theory of Kissing (2020)

I think they did an amazing job!

When watching this keep in mind that it was a school project so there's not a ton that can be asked of it.

That being said I think they actually did a great job with it. All of the actors were great even though we didn't get a lot of time for development. I think overall the one who played Nami did a good job. I'm picky with body/gender switching scenarios just because it doesn't work if the character isn't the same after the switch. Essentially they need to be the same person after the switch (when it comes to personality, mannerisms, patterns, etc...) or it just doesn't work. There were definitely a few differences in body posture and mannerisms between Naeb and Nami, things like the way they walked and overall carried themselves, but things like speech I think were dead on. I fault that more on the lack of time and how we didn't get a huge chance to really see the characters.

Other than that music was good and fit the scene, all of the other actors did well, and pacing was done very well. The cinematography and editing was so much better than I was expecting. Much better quality than what I expect coming from university students. They have a bright future ahead of them if they keep putting stuff out like this.

Overall I don't really have any complaints that couldn't be easily fixed with a little more time. I love this premise and would love to see it come to life in a movie or series. Congrats to everyone who worked on this project amazing job!
