View MoreGreat movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
View MoreNot to sound cliche but the book is so much better than the movie. I've read the book twice; year's apart and I loved the emotion that it brought out in me both times. The first time reading it, I hated Will Traynor at the end because I thought he was some selfish prick who was accustomed to getting his way and couldn't see the beauty amongst the ugly. The second time reading it, I empathized with Will Traynor and realized I was being the selfish one. The book makes you confront the right to die decision from the perspective of many characters and you feel for each one. I cried, laughed, felt anger and many other emotions. In my opinion that's a sign of a great book.Too bad the movie didn't bring out the same emotions. The storyline was flat, the characters boring; with the actress playing Louisa Clark being downright annoying. It was as if she was forcing herself to be Lou Clark. Trust me, the Louisa Clark in the book isn't so cheesy. Sam Claflin and Emilia Clarke also had no onscreen chemistry so you never get to feel the depths of how their relationship develops. The movie also leaves out details from the book that are important for both the character(s) and story and adds scenes that are completely unnecessary. In the book Louisa Clarks family isn't so cheery about their financial woes which is one reason why we see Louisa Clark not stray far from home so she can financially help her family. Another reason being the "maze incident", a scene the movie left out. To wrap it up, if you want to really get the meaning of the book and a more in depth feel of the characters skip the movie and read the book.
View MoreI had never read the book that this film is based on. And yet it seems I should read the book now.
View MoreThis film literally just legitimizes euthanasia and is a complete waste of time. One hundred percent predictable plot. No reason to watch.
View MoreFirst thing i should emphasize is , when you compare this film with Walk to Remember Me Before you really not up to catch that caliber.Film fails to attach the viewer emotionally during the play time. Story is distant from the viewer hence there will be no solid connection built between the film and the viewer. Story line is almost predictable , but so as Walk to Remember. But this story fails to add those tiny little spicy things to the story which will really really hurt the viewer at the end. Film ends but viewer will feel alright that he(Will) died but at any stage they did not want him to die. Director should create those small small moments which makes the viewer in tears when the character dies. Acting is not good. Its average from both Loise and Will as well, It may have cost the luxury of a good chemistry between them as well.
