After (2019)
Cringe
Haven't read the book (maybe it's better), but the plot seems fatally flawed. The characters all spend a significant portion of the movie overreacting to things. The various conflicts seemed forced and easily avoidable if characters just explained or didn't overreact.
This movie doesn't depict college very accurately either. I swear nothing ever that interesting happened in college.
The ending ruins whatever amount of dignity this movie has left. It feels like no one learned anything, leaving me to wonder what the whole point of this is.
I will say the two characters have some interesting moments and some well written scenes every now and then.
Christmas in the Wild (2019)
Cute but poorly written
Props for the super cute elephant rescue plot, but honestly the pacing felt super weird. Within the first eight minutes of the film the main character had taken her Christmas card photo, shipped her son off to college, got told her marriage was over, packed all of her husband's things, went to lunch with friends, and went to Africa to meet the male lead. Within eight minutes.
The ending was well done, and it made me wonder why the rest of the movie wasn't like this.
