An Adorable RomCom
baccaruda120 May 2021
The premise is pretty simple. Two recently single people meet and hit it off. But they don't want their new appreciation for one another to just be a rebound thang. So instead of jumping in feet first, they decide that they need some other "experiences" before trying out a genuine relationship. Much of the usual awngst and miscommunication happens, because of course it does. I enjoyed this film. The leads were good, as was the ensemble. Hats off to Ms. Forstaz for starring and being a co-director. Brava!

indie rom com with a classic feel
noahyes-758-3770813 April 2021
This is a fun indie rom com, with echoes of classic new york romances - youve got mail, when harry met sally, and one fine day all come to mind. The film navigates subtly through the sudden, unexpected possibility of discovering real love while on the rebound, and utilizes nyc beautifully as a backdrop. Great movie for dates and couples!

Fresh, funny and natural!
ramirez_dagoberto18 February 2021
A wonderful character driven story that had many moments where it effortlessly made me laugh. Each character brought a presence and unique energy that meshed well with each other, I also enjoyed the new fresh take on "rebound" relationships, with a really interesting idea for the story. I highly recommend it!!

Comedic gem!
deniseparmstrong11 March 2021
Thre3bound is an amazing and refreshing indie spin on the classic rom-com and is anything but predictable. It showcases through a very honest lens the trials and tribulations of navigating relationships, as well as a spectacular glimpse into the wild ride known as being a New Yorker, and how the two coincide. The screenplay is modern and genuinely written, and examines the entire spectrum of emotions one goes through after picking the pieces up and putting them back together again after a life setback. It's delivered so effortlessly by the lead actors and supporting cast that it's hard not to feel as if you're a fly on the wall living out each hilarious and cringeworthy moment with them. And if you've ever lived in or spent any amount of time in NYC, the cinematography, editing, and score will make you fall in love with the city's vibrantly beating heart over and over again. A must watch that's guaranteed to give you the feels.

Not your usual rom-com!
directortim201212 January 2021
I'm bored to tears with predictable rom-coms. This is a romance and comedy, but the parallels to the standard romantic-comedy formula end there. Thre3bound has a unique premise, which is then executed in a really fresh way. It is anything but boring. I liked the story, the characters, and I was engaged throughout the movie. Kudos on the writing, directing and acting. This was just a thoroughly well made and enjoyable film!

Beautiful, funny, and heartfelt
NUDavis859-124 January 2021
You immediately fall in love with these characters. They have great chemistry with each other. They are funny, charismatic, and most importantly real. The dialogue is engaging and the writing is smart. Overall, I was thoroughly engaged. I laughed at certain moments and yelled at the TV over what the characters did at other moments. But through it all, I was loving every minute of it and couldn't wait to see how it all played out. I highly recommend.

nice rom com ride.
williamgway12 January 2021
This was a funny, well written and acted social commentary on dating. It helps to understand a bit about New York but not necessary. Normally I like to see some 'starts' in the leads in rom-coms but the two leads (and most of the supporting cast) did a great job in delivering nice performances. It had just the right balance between social humor and romance. I recommend a watch.

Why have one rebound when you can have three?
NZfilmfinder20 January 2021
Threebound starts with a great concept a guy and a girl meet, they have great chemistry but they're both fresh out of devastating relationships and don't want to treat this new exciting development as a rebound. So they decide each to date three people before revisiting their own romantic journey together so they'll be better prepared for a potential serious relationship.... what could possibly go wrong right? Threebound is a great rom com, the acting is excellent, the dialogue sharp and witty and the story itself both funny and heartwarming. The two leads sparkle together with outstanding chemistry and the films improvisational feel makes it all the more organic and endearing, a great Rom-Com for anyone who can appreciate the complexities of dating in the modern world. An absolute delight.

Intriguing Rom-Com
JGReviews16 January 2021
Threebound has a fun premise: Sarah and Matt decide to sleep with three other people to sow their wild oats to prevent a rebound relationship (hence "Threebound"). This setup keeps things interesting, whether exciting or cringeworthy. I'm a sucker for films set in New York too. It's definitely a solidly made indie film and worth a watch if you're looking for a relationship movie.

Fresh premise, smart and thoughtful characters, fantastic writing/acting/directorial debut
tracykfenton26 August 2021
What a great debut from talented actor/writer/director Kate Forsatz. She has put together a fresh cast to tell this smart, thoughtful story of a couple trying to manage their mutual attraction in light of their recent breakups. Of course the heart triumphs - but in a way that makes sense for anyone who can relate to the complexities of modern life. Not a fairy tale, but real life adults willing to take a calculated risk on each other and on love. Funny, touching.

Perfect Easy-Going Rom Com for a Night in!
mannykaymk14 January 2021
I loved this movie. If you are looking for a great watch before heading to bed; this is THE ONE! A super fun watch with seamless transitions from scene to scene that make it digestible for the viewer. Very easy to connect to even when addressing uncomfortable topics of break-ups, divorce, heartbreak, and rebounds. Lots of hilarious scenes that we can all relate to. Hats off to the entire film team for an epic creation!

Witty Serendipitous Love Story
vibhakumarisolanki17 January 2021
Witty humor, a love story indeed, and an exemplary depiction of finding love serendipitously. This rom-com gives all the feels and captures humor in an awkwardness that we can all resonate with. As a native New Yorker, the places brought to light typical NYC banter and idiosyncrasies. A must see!

Will They or Won't They

My fiancée and I ran into this romantic comedy and had a great time watching it! The story was quite entertaining and the actors/actresses played their parts with great chemistry. Highly recommended for one of those cozy date nights at home.

Such a good feel good movie.
evelyne-825 January 2021
I love romantic comedies, and I was pleasantly surprised by Threebound. The dialogue was so natural and the dynamic between the characters and the fear to commit and move forward in their relationship without giving too much away. If you're looking for a feel good movie watch Threebound. Well done team.

Not Your Typical Rom-Com
cportney16 January 2021
Such a great movie for a relaxing night at home. The leads have wonderful chemistry and I really enjoyed the unique spin on the typical rom-com set-up of boy meets girl, boy and girl fall in love, etc. If you are looking for a feel good movie with witty dialogue and romance this should definitely be on your list!

Smart, witty and fresh
JCanni6830 January 2021
I was sold on this movie from it's original premise, and fortunately for me it delivers. It fulfills it's potential with lots of fun and witty moments, but also a lot of rawness, honesty and insights. The acting is very strong, and the dialogue is so natural and interesting, that I was always engaged with the characters. They are flawed but believable, likeable and relatable. This film will make you feel a lot of emotions and connect with you on multiple levels.

Remember when? Not your typical rom com
jmmoore-7582418 January 2021
This film took me by surprise. A rom com that doesn't have entirely stereotyped characters? Check plus. The writing is relatable but a bit cooler and zingy than might roll off the tongue. So many great belly laughs which was much needed. Quite loved how the filmography captured both intimacy and the stuff of hustling chance. A true New York film, and perhaps may make one consider how self-restraint and intention can carry one a long way in love and life. Hilariously relatable, light enough but a true piece of art. Waiting for the sequel set in Brooklyn, "Eight"bound.

Great indie!
AvaCincotti18 January 2021
Well written (not the usual cliche' rom-com), well acted, well directed and with high production value, this indie captures the lives of Sarah and Matt and their take on relationships, sex and rebounds. I really enjoyed it!

A fun concept for a romance
BigHarvey14 April 2021
This is a very fun concept. A couple on the rebound from recent failed relationships discover each other and recognize instant chemistry. But rather than fall prey to a rebound romance, they decide to challenge each other to three dalliances before they return to one another to make it work. Many cute interactions ensue as they update one another on their progress. This is a fun movie for dates and couples with a great performance from Kate Forsatz also wrote the script.

Sonic the Hedgehog participates in a romantic comedy
JEDBOB552 July 2022
Jason Griffith, voice of Sonic the Hedgehog from 2003 to 2010, dates a woman and hijinks ensue. Sonic must balance his feelings with her feelings and learn to live with his new girlfriend, much like he does with Elise in the 2006 video game: Sonic the Hedgehog (2006). This movie is a 10/10 just for having him in it because he is the best voice for Sonic. In any case please come back to Sonic Jason!
