Atom User Reviews
The book was great but this did not translate well on the screen. They changed some key scenes in my opinion. Also found the soundtrack lacking.
I loved it. I don't normally watch romantic films but I wanted to support Nicola Yoon's second book turned to film. It was nice to see the guy so into the girl
Metacritic
While time is likely on the side of its leads, their chemistry only goes so far in what feels, finally, like a half-baked movie.
The story and its trappings feel a little generic, the dialogue studiously bland and the characters and their problems curiously weightless, in spite of gestures in the direction of real-world issues.
Director Russo-Young, whose roots are in independent film, has brought a bit of a welcome indie sensibility to the proceedings.
