Directors Hernan Jimenez and Jennifer Koppelman-Tang deliver a delightful satire of modern romantics with Love Hard.

Nina Dobrev is in top form as Liz, a Los Angeles columnist who decides to surprise her Catfish for Christmas, only to discover that she has been cheated on by the handsome Josh, played by Jimmy O. Yang.

Although it's a Christmas premise, the filmmakers imbue every scene with a very smart socio-cultural commentary on gamified romance and cybernetic self-healing, while Darren Barnet delivers heartthrob vibes and comedy gold as Tag, the heartthrob next door.

Shot as a brilliant romantic comedy with deft humor aimed at both sexes, Love Hard pokes fun at everyone while reminding us that hope and humanity still flourish in real life, perhaps in the most unexpected packaging.

Dobrev and Yang share amazing chemistry in this subversive holiday confection that declares online fate fickle and sparks IRL unpredictability.

Jimenez and Koppelman-Tang prove they are crazy new-school talents.
Although the major awards galas overlooked it, Love Hard became an MTV Movie & TV Awards-eligible sensation.

Its spectacular premiere at SXSW began to generate viral buzz, earning Nina Dobrev a shot at a nomination.

Quietly released on Thanksgiving by Netflix, it instantly became the most-watched movie on the network, proving the enduring power of charming romantic fiction.

With more than 59 million household views to date, it joins holiday hits like “The Holiday” in streaming immortality years after its release.
