Am I Missing Something?

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

I began this movie, knowing little of what awaited me. Many movies you watch in life are movies that just fleet by, without having an impact on your view of life, of love, of what's important to you. This movie was and remains different. It is a movie that will challenge your idea of life and of love foremost. If you are prepared for this, then I strongly advice you to watch this movie. It was gripping without its like. I have never been this moved by a movie, and it will probably take a long time for me to find a movie of its like. 10/10

The writing, acting, dialogue and cinematography of 5 to 7 are all nearly perfect. There isn't really anything negative to point out, however there is definitely one thing that makes this story come alive...Anton Yelchin.This film is about a struggling writer, who meets and has an affair with a woman married to a French diplomat. They meet from 5pm-7pm, the time after work, but before returning home for the evening. It's a French thing...This is not another Nicholas Sparks adaptation, but a genuine story of love and morality. Much of the film shows the inner conflict of a man torn between his feelings for a woman and his own moral and ethical convictions. It's definitely worth a watch.I would highly recommend ANY movie that Anton Yelchin is in. He was not only a great actor, but he really breathed life into every film he worked on. If you have not seen his films, you should definitely try them. Not all are serious (Fright Night), but all are entertaining and manage to draw you in (Charlie Bartlett).

Sometimes I really wonder if there's something wrong with me. I'm admittedly not a big fan of "romance" movies but when I see one that's really good it grabs me. This picture, however, I found to be incredibly boring. Taken in by the 7.1 rating, I thought I'd give it a try and stuck with it all the way through to see if anything happened to justify that score. Afraid not. Berenice Marlohe is astonishingly good looking, but the faultless character she plays is more annoying than attractive. As for Anton Yelchin, I have doubts that he could have made his sad faced character any less interesting. The story is not really all that original and is actually pretty sappy; writer/director Victor Levin does not hesitate to "cue the strings" to make sure that sap keeps flowing. As I said, maybe there's something wrong with me - plenty of reviewers thought the movie was great. Maybe you will too, who knows...

Apparently, a movie, even without being non-fiction, it can make the life of the protagonist perfect in all sense. Anton Yelchin, who was amazing in Alpha Dog, now seems to not have a clue about acting. He overreacts in all corners, and unfortunately, for me, it stressed me the hell out. I would love to meet someday, a group of people, so balanced, ego-free, and totally sane, that they can have a complete and fulfilling life, even when they know they both have a side partner. I always try to identify the good aspects of the movie, the bright side if you will. I totally couldn't with this one. A paper thin plot, a pseudo smart narrative, and perfect nonsense circumstances for the main character. The only thing I learned about this movie is to make better choices when I get to go to the theater.
