Wat Is Dan Liefde plot
Divorce lawyer Cato gets the chance to become a partner at a commercial firm that needs change. Filling your pockets ruthlessly is so 2017 and Cato seems to be the right person to teach the brash lawyers a bit of morality. She is idealistic, ambitious and unimpressed by the Old Boys Network. Until she meets colleague Gijs, who represents everything that Cato detests. While as a child of divorced parents she believes that people should not be so carried away by their emotions and should separate in an adult manner, Gijs likes to add some fuel to the fire and drag his clients to court for a lengthy divorce battle. .

Quite a relief if you compare this with most Dutch films in this genre.
I don't think there is any country where so many dramatic romantic comedies have been made as our country. This movie is really hard, it's actually quite fun.
It is difficult to articulate exactly how this happened. Elise Schaap is in any case a positive factor, but Maarten Heijmans and Jesse Meester are also just fine.
The story is not very good, the film has to have really nice scenes and situations, and there are quite a lot of them. Of course after a month or two you won't know what this movie was about, but this is one of the better romantic comedies in years.
3*

Mediocre film in which a divorce lawyer gets the chance to work for a large firm. A romcom entirely by the rules. And in itself there is nothing wrong with that, but the film lacks sharpness and humor, with too little addressing the question posed by the title. Elise Schaap has enough charm, but doesn't quite manage to save the film. Just not 3.0 stars.

Cato de Deugd [Elise Schaap] has been in a relationship with musician Sander [Teun Luijkx] for 8 years and is quite satisfied with her job as a mediator. But when she gets a chance to work at a prestigious law firm and her condition (a partnership) is granted, she encounters a whole different culture that is personified above all by Gijs [Maarten Heijmans], a savvy divorce lawyer who likes to resolve the conflict. looks up. Because their boss Wim Boeker [Michiel Romeyn] thinks they can learn from each other, he forces Cato and Gijs to work together. It may be clear in advance how this will end, but the road to the happy ending is full of surprises and screenwriter Goertzen manages to ridicule the conventions of the romkom every now and then, especially in the Concertgebouw. Not entirely believable, but Schaap and Heijmans are a charming 'odd couple'.
