| User ReviewTimothy GThe only way I know that you can see this short, 18 min. NYU film is on Itunes or on the '127 Hours' DVD. But see it you should. It's clever, funny, and just a little bid sad. It reminds me of why I studied film in college in the first place. :) |
| User ReviewCaleb CNot directly preachy at all, this is something with the element that what is in place comes from "the god of love" so to speak. It is the tale of cupid, really, and done in a very beautiful way that I believe anyone would appreciate. This short is something not to be missed and is also an academy award winner. Seek it out, or if you live in my area, I could show you it on our families dvr. |

| User ReviewCory BThis is a short film that you should definitely check out on itunes. It's original and will have you smiling through most of its 18 minute running time. I read an online review categorizing Luke Matheny's quirky style of humor as similar to that of Woody Allen, but I think the latter's is more lighthearted and has an innocent charm to it. Short comedies usually come up short but this is an exception. Kudos to the Academy for recognizing it. |
| User ReviewAndre TThis is a very funny short-film.The film's run time is approximately 18 minutes. It was written and directed by Luke Matheny, and produced by Gigi Dement, Ryan Silbert, and Stefanie Walmsley. The film was shot in black and white on the Red One camera by director of photography Bobby Webster. In the film, a lounge singer and championship dart player named Raymond Goodfellow is desperately in love with a fellow band-mate, but she only has love for his best friend. The crooner prays daily to God for a way for his beloved to fall in love with him. One evening, his prayers are answered when he's given a box of magical darts with Cupid-like powers. Raymond decides to use the darts to make his own love connection. The film is included as a special feature in the blu-ray release of 127 Hours.Highly recommended! |
| User ReviewGina WWinner of the 83rd Academy Award for Live Action Short Film, God of Love is a romantic comedy when Raymond receives a box of "love" darts. |
| User ReviewJon ASaw this as part of the Oscar nominated shorts program running at a local theater. Liked this one a lot, mainly since it didn't take itself quite as seriously as the others. Funny through out, and the black and white suits the film well. |
| User ReviewJon WIts on the 127 special features, nicely shot in B/W with cool idea for the story. |
| User ReviewRyan GSUMMING IT UP: This year's Oscar winner for Live-Action Short is a beautifully made, charmer of a film even with the really odd presence of its writer and director Luke Matheny. He's definitely better behind the camera than on screen but he's serviced beautifully by some lovely turns from the rest of his cast and an absolutely gorgeous eye by cinematographer Bobby Webster. It's quaint and sweet and above all entertaining. |
