Written by Juliette Towhidi based on the novel by Cecilia Ahern
Starring Lily Collins and Sam Claflin
U.K./Germany, 2014
Two life long best friends miss the boat on a relationship after a minor misunderstanding leads to one of them getting pregnant and foregoing college and the other moving to the states to pursue his dreams. Will they eventually get together? Won’t they? Who knows!
Spoiler: they get together. I didn’t like this movie. I didn’t understand why (or how) the lead female character (Rosie!) hid her pregnancy from the male lead and it was annoying how most of the story was kept rolling with understandings that could be easily explained if anyone communicated like humans. Which is too bad, because the two leads are appealing. One nice thing is the Blu-ray has an aggressive sound design so it gives your subwoofer a workout and the soundtrack features lots of fun pop songs. So that’s cool for a while but then it gets to be a little much, like the rest of the movie.
