I think Ke Huy Quan is as charming and engaging of an actor as you are going to find. I loved him in Everything, Everywhere All at Once and the season two of Loki. Unfortunately, Love Hurts is a mess. I’d go as far as to say that this is not Love Hurts… but instead, Love Stinks.

According to IMDB, “A realtor is pulled back into the life he left behind after his former partner-in-crime resurfaces with an ominous message. With his crime-lord brother also on his trail, he must confront his past and the history he never fully buried.”

There were some fun fight scenes. The story, though, was about as dumb as it comes and there is not one real character in it. Because of all that, the film, even among the biggest action scenes, felt very boring.
