Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
CommentsXp Best movie ever!
Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.
Neive Bellamy Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
The Couchpotatoes I guess in it's genre it's an okay movie, nothing wonderful but not terrible either. But you have to like that kind of romantic teenager movies then. So I rated it in that optic, because it's certainly not my kind of movies. The two main characters Freddie Highmore and Odeya Rush didn't do a too bad of a job. I always see Freddie Highmore as Norman Bates now since I watched Bates Motel but I guess he can play something else than a psychopath. The story is a bit slow though, not much going on apart from a shy guy trying to get the attention of his crush. From the beginning of the movie you know how it will end, that's not a surprise nor spoiling, it ends good like it always does with these kind of movies.
i-love-luigi To start off, I love Freddie Highmore. I watched this movie for him. He's absolutely magnificent in Bates Motel and the Good Doctor (so if you haven't seen either yet, CHECK THEM OUT!) I was severely disappointed with this movie. The entire script needed to be thrown out as it was incredibly boring and the dialogue stilted and unrealistic. Total snooze fest. Every time I thought the plot was moving forward, it didn't. The acting wasn't terrible but having seen 90% of Highmore's other work, this wasn't his best. He looked like he didn't even want to be there. The characters in this were uninteresting and cliche, and rather undeveloped. Seriously can NO ONE come up with an interesting love story anymore? If you're looking for any type of entertainment don't watch this.
pattysnake-48086 Basically If you liked Freddie Highmore you'll like this movie. If you don't you won't like it. A lot of people are talking about how the plot was was badly written and the acting was emotionless and the scrip was bland. I have to say I do mostly agree. It was a strange movie, I wont lie. But it was in a way kind of heart warming, in it's own way... Basically this is a movie you have to shut off all previous judgements and dive in, it's going to surprise you. You'll be able to enjoy it if you don't pick everything that's wrong or weird about it because there's a lot.
paulcsavoie All I have to say is what the heck happened in this movie. It was a let down from minute 1 to minute i don't even know the movie just dragged on like this sentence. Holy molly I want that 2 hours of my life back. I tell you I am never watching this movie in my life again. Nor should anyone else with a decent sense of movies.
