Writer/directors Cazzie David and Elisa Kalani look to explore the struggles of the Gen Z dating experience with “I Love You Forever,” which is a darker take on romantic comedy happenings. The pair hope to pull off a bit of a switcheroo, initially tempting viewers with the usual in sassy dialogue and quirky characters before gradually reducing lightheartedness as elements of abuse and obsession take over the viewing experience. David and Kalani aren’t polished filmmakers (they make their feature-length helming debut here), and there’s an overall clunkiness to the picture that’s difficult to ignore. However, they aim to explore a certain reality facing many young people dealing with the world of toxic relationships and dating woes, trying to reach the target demographic with a more honest understanding of the dangers out there.
