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.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

Yet another variety of Dr. Caligari and unfortunately not a very good one. A traumatic event that is revealed at the end, a very beautiful girl and a traumatized protagonist with mental issues. Like Perks of Being a Wallflower. They all started with Dr. Caligari.
I think Mel was interested in photography because the writer wanted the young viewers who spend a lot of time on instagram and social media emphatize with Mel and thus make the failure of that "perfect couple" reasonable. None of the characters were very authentic or interesting. The writer could have given the characters a bit more depth but I guess it's not very necessary considering the targeted viewers. It had a nice climax. Could have been much more dramatic to the viewers if there were more material they could relate to the characters. Dreaming about going away visiting a place on a random photo... Not a very original scheme right?

This is the kind of movie that can reach you out there, right when you're not expecting it, and hit you so hard you wanna scream. Actors are great. Atmosphere so real. Cinematography and rythm excellent. Sorry I'm french canadian. My english sucks anyway I'd be speechless. I should go back and find the director's name, it's important. Thanks dude. You're as great as Sidney Hall is. Thanks to the whole cast. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Love you Elle, you have it all. Great actress. ; - )

It was the title that initially caught my interest. I had never heard of this movie and no idea what it was about. Was I in for a surprise. I was hooked from beginning to end.Exceptional acting all round. This could have so easily become a melodrama, rather, it was the reality soaking through that made it brilliant.One critic on here cited 'unlikely events'... hardly, life is full of these kinds of messes, the kind that eventually wear people thin and change the entire course of their lives. Perhaps some critics haven't started living yet.
It can be so easy for directors and editing to lose their way when doing different timelines and yet this film doesn't. It keeps you focused and informed. That's a major feat in this film as it really has a bit of hopping to do.From the characters you simply can't like to the characters you cry for and those your heart breaks for, this story and this film is absolutely captivating from beginning to end.

This movie is exquisite. I have never written a review before but I have to with some of these low ratings. I am still thinking about this movie days after watching and that says something. It's hard to describe it accurately. It's haunting, creepy, romantic, smart, beautifully shot and acted. I can't for the life of me figure out why the ratings are so bad. What else do you want in a movie?!
