Black Girl Nerds
[A] formulaic hip-hop romance.

Village Voice
RZA's direction lacks visual personality, but he keeps the narrative moving and elicits strong performances from his cast.

New York Times
There's not much added to the static thump of cliché in "Love Beats Rhymes" to give this tale of a struggling young female rapper-poet any special life.
Los Angeles Times
LOVE BEATS RHYMES is a contemporary romantic drama that’s very grounded in a conventional personal-growth narrative.
New York Times
Rating: 2.5/5 --
This movie overall is just ok, not outstanding in any way but it was nice to see a story like this with a black woman as the hero so it wasn't a complete waste.
