Very well executed
Good start, but then it gets ruined
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
View MoreThe plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
View MoreLiquor, rock n roll and sex, that's it. Like all others movies from Hollywood.
View MoreMia Hall, a very talented cello player has a lot of problems on her mind regarding her future as a musician, her family and her boyfriend, but nothing compares to what she's about to experience. She's faced with a near death situation which brings her into a position from where she can relive the most important moments of her life and try to choose a path of life or death. Tragedies come, one after another, making her decision harder, but her entire future is solely up to her.It's an interesting idea of a state of trance in which you can have some flashbacks and figure out what you're going to do with your life, studying the present at the same time. Unfortunately, from my point of view, I simply cannot find the problem in this situation. I cannot think of a person who would actually choose to die instead of continuing his life, no matter how hard it seemed to be ahead. With life, you're not given a second chance. You live or it's game over. And with this said, there comes this movie's predictability which kind of spoils the finale. Besides this, it is exactly what you would expect from this type of movie. Dramatic and sad but also romantic and emotional. You feel sorry for her numerous times, and that is a good thing, especially as she is faced with more and more difficulties. Fortunately, she gets a great dose of encouragements from her close ones, making her decision somewhat easier.It is a good movie but unfortunately it fails to do something that truly impresses you, something to make you suddenly burst into tears, facts which I consider a must have in this kind of films.
View MoreI am livid about this movie! I can't get the time I spent watching it back. The beginning of the movie was whatever. It was full of clichés and eyeroll moments. However, the movie grew up a bit. Chloe's character slowly became less annoying and the movie lost a bit of its pretentiousness. HOWEVER, the end of the movie was absolute garbage. The entire movie makes you invested in the relationship between Adam and Mia, then it puts a gun in your face and pulls the trigger. Spoiler: at the end of the movie, Mia decides to wake up, despite losing her whole family. And for what? For her first love, who acted like a stubborn idiot until she was on her deathbed. Yes, he was only happy about her fulfilling her dreams when she was literally dying. This movie is PATHETIC.
View MoreI like the characters and the story. Being a musician myself, it was pretty relatable and fun to watch. I really like Mia & Adam's relationship too - the fact that they're both musicians but still different in many ways is interesting and makes their relationship more complex. I think this film was pretty realistic too (other than the fact that Mia gets in Juliard and Adam becomes a popstar which is a little...far fetched might I say). Mia basically had a normal life, until the day of the car crash. Shows how unexplainable accidents like this happen in real life, and there's nothing we can do to control it. What matters is how we handle those situations - that's what the film is trying to say, I think. The problem I had with this movie is that it felt slow paced, and when it was over I didn't feel particularly amazed. I was just like okay, that's it? Kind of predictable.
