This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
> There was very kind romance > Love from the conventional ways of the 90's sparked up with today > Communication with romance and a thrill of love actually The movie gave me emotional chills, fairy tales of the new world mixed with the old love where you have to wait on someone to be present for you to actually feel the love and not just TEXT or ELECTRONICALLY feel loved.
Many Romance films struggle to know the balance between cheesy and believable. It really doesn't matter how you make yourself stand out in terms of creativity, because if you can't believe in the movie itself, then it fails as a whole. Everything, Everything is the type of movie that bugs me from start to finish, due to the fact that everything about it seems polished and dumbed down for a specific audience. Yes, there are some very creative aspects, which I will get into, but the movie itself suffers from being too unbelievable. Adapted from a novel in which I have not had the chance to read, this is strictly a review of the film itself. Here is why Everything, Everything probably doesn't deserve your time. Due to an illness, Maddy has spent her entire life inside her mother's home, never once seeing the outside world. As new neighbours move in next door, a boy her age grabs her attention. Figuring out ways to communicate with each other, this is easily where the most enjoyable aspect comes into play. I found myself intrigued throughout the various ways of storytelling that were presented throughout this movie, but the film itself falls apart by everything else around them feeling fake. What I mean by this, is the fact that every supporting cast member feels forced in order to give each of the leads a tragic backstory. Never once did I feel as though I was watching something realistic, which was clearly what they were going for. As this film approaches its second act, revealing new things about everyone, I found myself growing a very strong hatred toward the mother (as a character), mainly because she was rude, cruel, and her intentions were never truly clear until the final few moments of the film. At first, Everything, Everything makes you believe you're watching one kind of movie, only to take a sort of dark turn that comes out of left field. In an offbeat Romance like this, I don't want to find myself hating characters, because that will take away from the fact that you're supposed to be enjoying this relationship unfold on-screen. After my viewing, the biggest takeaway and positive that I can offer Everything, Everything is the pairing of Nick Robinson and Amanda Stenberg. Sure, their relationship follows the tropes that many films based on young adult novels do nowadays, but their chemistry was definitely present. As a whole I really don't like this movie, but I was enjoying myself when these two were on-screen together. If not for anything else, these two have a bright future ahead of them. Nick Robinson has already shown some of his stardom in films like Jurassic World and Amanda Stenberg had her big start in The Hunger Games, but neither of them really showcased their true talent until now, at least in my opinion. In the end, this is a film that probably has a far better novelization that what is presented on-screen as a final product, but Everything, Everything does absolutely everything to make you wish for some better substance. Never once did I buy the circumstances that she went through, due to the fact that this film has a sort of cruel conclusion in my opinion. I didn't really like my experience watching this movie, and quite honestly, only those who don't mind a little schmaltz will find a bit of enjoyment here. I can't get myself to recommend this movie to anyone, but it's not a complete disaster. The leads are well-cast and the storytelling elements are unique enough to keep you engaged, but the movie doesn't really do anything special to make you care. Everything, Everything is a waste of a premise.
Would imprison her child into thinking she had a terrible diseases
Everything, Everything may not win any Oscars this spring but there isn't any fault in these young stars. This film deals with a teenage girl who lives her life sealed up in her house, and under close medical supervision by either a nurse or her mother who is a doctor. Her only sibling, a brother, and her father were apparently killed in an accident. she has to do her schoolwork online. It's a pretty lonely life for young Maddy, who suffers from some disease where she has a very weak immune system and cannot be exposed to typical germs. At least she doesn't have to live in a bubble like John Travolta or Jake Gyllenhaal. It looks like a nice house, anyway. Big windows. Big enough to let her flirt wiyh the new boy Olly who just moved in next door, anyway. Olly is apparently a cute boy, but he has a rough life. His dad is an abusive drunk who can't hold a job, forcing them to move often. These two kids are in need of a good romance, its safe to say. But how can these kids get to know each other when Maddy isn't supposed to be in the room with other kids??With the help of her nurse, Maddy and Olly are able to strike up a little bit of a relationship. Plot complications involving her mother seem to stop it before it can get beyond a 4th of July kiss, though. Maddy is compelled to do something bold. She purchases tickets for herself and Olly to take a romantic trip to Hawai'i! I guess she'd theoretically rather die of every possible germ imaginable than spend another day locked inside her house. And what a fun trip it is!Spoiler.Of course once this trip is taken, there are only 2 paths this story can take. The film dangles one in front of our face, then hits us over the head with the other. And it was no surprise to this author that Maddy was not really sick, but think of what that says about her mother. By the film's end, their relationship is still up in the air as Maddy's childhood was proven to be an unnecessary lie. Do Maddy and Olly end up together? Take a wild guess, but you'll feel they've earned their happy ending.This is a better than expected film, and the young stars get a lot of the credit. Amanda Stenberg in particular will hopefully use this film to vault herself to great things. Despite many predictable parts, there are some nice touches involving Maddy's architecture projects coming to life, and her astronaut guardian angel. Despite the PG-13 rating, the film has little explicit material, save for one scene of I'd call it "implied intimacy". Will this film's target audience of teens get the Nurse Ratched reference? Will their parents know what it means when they are asked?? 1975 was a long time ago.The Hound.
