Watch Eight Days a Week For Free

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

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.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Peter loves Erica very much. So much that he's willing to do anything to prove it. Advised by his grandfather, he decides to spend all summer, against all odds, in front of her house. That's pretty much it. We follow him day by day, spying on neighbors, listening to his sexually obsessed friend, being bullied by Erica's boyfriend and wasting time in various modes just to impress the girl of his dreams.It's a simple plot which frankly becomes boring very soon. I liked the idea of camping in a girl's yard but just staying there without almost any result and confronting all kinds of problems makes you think if the boy is truly mentally healthy. Furthermore, the most anticipated ending finally occurs but it comes out of nowhere. I was expecting something progressive, but from the beginning she isn't "bothered" at all by his presence in her yard and enjoys her life with her boyfriend when all of a sudden, in the last day, the "miracle" takes place! Wow! I can't tell you how impressed I am…I wanted to like this movie but the fact that it was so dull, rarely funny and sometimes boring made me change my mind. It could have been so much better!

I don't see how anyone could say this film is the Breakfast Club of our generation. No way. This movie could have been good. Well, thats a stretch. Had someone else written it, someone else directed it, and someone else played the lead role... Then it could have had some potential. But the only bright side of this film is Keri Russel. And the only reason she lifts this movie up is her body. A movie cannot be driven by one gorgeous female. It needs good acting, good directing, and countless other things. This film is full of bad cliches and bad dialogue.On the other hand, I must admitt I did enjoy this film somewhat. It had a few bright points and Keri Russel sure helped. See it. Forget it. I give it a 5/10.

This movie is well-written but poorly directed and acted. Keri Russell will never win an oscar that is for sure, and the same goes for the leading man, who looks like a talentless Jason Schwarmann. The grandpa in the movie is a good character but the direction is so lucklaster I wished crap like this was not made.

Michael Davis hits the nail right on the head when it comes to the complexities of the teen mind, mainly focusing on lust (on the lighter side), sexual frustration and determination.It takes place during the last free summer of a likable teen (a great Josh Schaffer). Inspired from a tale his grandpa Nono tells him, he sets out to win the affection of his life-long crush Erica (Keri Russell)by spending every minute of his summer on her front lawn. His task is not easy, as he must confront her bully boyfriend Nick (Johnny Green) and earn some respect from his father.There is rather brilliant writing and direction by Michael Davis with characters who are all complex in their own way and great acting to match them (R.D. Robb steals the show in an ingenious performance).There are some misfired jokes such as scenes involving an overly religious girl who plays with nun dolls (not offensive, just not very funny).Nonetheless, 8 DAYS A WEEK is a little gem from Davis who unfortunately didn't match success with 2000's 100 GIRLS.
