Simply A Masterpiece
Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
The 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
Am I the only one seeing similarities to Justin and Selena??? Also no real action here and a really, really, really bad ending.Actually, if you just got finished chewing your chocolate and you have to spit it out, it was that kind of feeling when the ending ended the way it did.I did like the moment we got to see the spray paint art tho.
This movie was better than what I expected! They should definitely make a second part! I want to know what happens when he comes off tour and if they get into a relationship or not! Matt did an excellent job at acting and I really think he should start doing it. Very pleased with this movie. 10/10. If they make a second movie I would love to see more about Jordans life and more from his point of view. The movie is basically a fan girls fan fiction come to life and yes I did fan girl a little not going to lie , but I would honestly love to see a second part to this movie. If you haven't watched it , go watch it , you won't be let down! And if you're from the UK and want to watch it , they have put it on Netflix.
No amount of words can express how amazing this movie is. I love the fact that the scenes are so well done and you can tell that they really thought about what to put in the movie. Also, the actors fit their roles well. The concepts brought up in the movie were really refreshing to see and it was just really unique and cool. I love the philosophical aspect of the movie too. The pacing of the movie was interesting too because it wasn't as fast paced as most modern movies are and it worked well for the type of movie it was. There are so many other fantastic things about the movie as well, but you should go watch it for yourself to find out more about it. If there is a sequel to this I will definitely watch!
It might just be the mood I'm in, or the fact that I've been up so late tonight, but this movie made me feel something more than the average teen romance movie has in a long time. I chose to watch this movie tonight because it happened to be uploaded onto my preferred streaming site just today, and it looked like something I could watch without really having to focus on it. While it definitely wasn't the kind of movie that required you to watch every minute of it, I still found myself pausing it every time I had to go out of ear shot. Something about this quiet film, with its very straightforward plot and unembellished characters, is just different enough to make it impactful. It reminded me that the best films are ones you don't have any expectations about at all. You don't see them coming. The acting is a little underwhelming, but it isn't a film that really asks for too much from the actors to begin with. It manages to accomplish it's goal of entertaining, without trying to be something more. Because of that, it left me feeling perfectly content. Sometimes, that's all I want from a film.
