Rated 5 to 7
3 August 2016
A 5 to 7 rating .... I do not judge movies for others or know what you might enjoy. I was so happy when this movie ended because there was no more time left to make any more mistakes.... however there were some few very enjoyable moments for me. So I gave it a 6...but I also agree with those who rated it lower. Beyond those moments I give it a 4 or 5 rating.... I ENJOYED HIS PARENTS...not the two lovers... The characters or script did not develop anything to show love and then all of a sudden they're willing to jump off forever and ever ....or not. A slap and a $250k check...right! I know the writer and the filmmaker wanted great love to be in the story but it was not anything I could see in this film. It could be a book report without images. They were telling a story but not showing it. They were reporting with little feeling. I found the movie story very unrealistic in my small world. Part of what an actor is TO ME are the roles they played before in other films. From a Star Trek bridge to romantic lead was a galactic stretch. If it were rewritten and redone as a light comedy, with a comedy minded director, it might be an OK cast . From my filmmaker's mind the cinematographic images were acceptable - safe. Mostly overcast soft lighting. Boring art wise. Often the lenses and full shots of her...were awkward looking. The story, and perhaps the way it was played were missing many things except boredom If I find myself doing other things while a movie is playing I know it is weak for me. I would not pay to own or rent this movie but on Netflix it's an OK watch. It is easy to be critical of what we do not enjoy fully. Easily rated 5 to 7
