Shoot to Marry

Steve is a hopeless romantic seeking true love and we want him to win. A lovely little film featuring an amazing cast of exceptional women. one of the funniest docs I've seen in a long time.

Shoot To Marry was the perfect film to watch during my corona-virus isolation because at its core, this doc is about loneliness and our craving for human connection. Simple premise: A forty-something guy named Steve gets his heart broken on Christmas. After talking things through with his parents and therapist, Steve sets out to meet interesting women, learn from them, and maybe find love again. Steve spends a year filming with amazing female subjects - a hat-maker, a photographer, a firefighter and many others. With his camera rolling, Steve and the women have intimate conversations about life and love. Shoot To Marry is an intimate doc about love and loneliness that I think will speak to a lot of people. Shut in from family and friends during the pandemic, I was struck by its message of human connection.

Shoot To Marry is simply the funniest and most engaging documentary I have ever seen. There are few people that are willing to share so much of their lives as the filmmaker Steve Markle. The realness makes Shoot To Marry relatable and interesting. It looks and sounds beautiful (probably because Steve is an artistic genius). Every scene works perfectly. I think every single person should watch this documentary and may learn something more about themselves or the relationship they are in. 10/10 Jonah Mickelson

Funny, self-reflective and occasionally absurd dating doc. The filmmaker hops from city to city looking for women to be in his documentary, and longing for that one special woman to share his life with. Markle's confidence has been shattered after a bad breakup, and he reveals his insecurities in hilarious stream of consciousness narration that runs through the film. Solid film and highly entertaining.

An unlucky-in-love middle aged man films his search for a wife. gets solid advice along the way from incredible people, women mostly. a simple idea done well. very fun watch.

More than a search for love, Shoot to Marry is an intimate study of a recently singled man learning to like himself. It's about the pain we all feel when a relationship ends, and the disappointment and rejection that comes with trying to meet someone new. I too am recently singled. Shoot To Marry was the perfect antidote - had me smiling start to finish.

Watched Shoot to Marry with my partner - we stumbled upon it randomly and found it surprisingly entertaining....Man in the throes of a devastating break-up goes in search of The One, meeting incredible people, women mostly, along the way. The central character Steve is strikingly authentic and willing to laugh at himself. It's pretty low budget - very indie. But this romantic odyssey is worth the watch.

Great little doc... lonely man interviews unique women on his search for enlightenment... and a wife. Watched with my twice-divorced eighty-year-old mom - she loved it. Steve - the lonely man - is awkward and fearless and funny. Definitely isn't afraid to have a laugh at himself. And by the end he manages to pull heartstrings. Sweet, surprising film. Highly recommended.
