To say this is excruciating boring would be an understatement
av_m28 July 2023
Trite - Solipsistic - Banal.

Trite - whole thing takes place in predictably beautiful Italian countryside the go to setting for upper middle class white spousal angst.

Solipsistic - two thoroughly unlikeable characters in a relentlessly non-stop "deep thoughts' harangue about their failed marriage - two self-centered narcissists, who'd a thunk the marriage would crash and burn.

Banal - she's a continuous stream of snarky quips - and ever-ready bunny of snide - he's the overly groomed affluent suburban guy always looking to catch a glimpse of himself in any passing shiny surface yet talking in some Long Island tough guy patois.

Particularly deserving of demerit is the script - whoever wrote the dialogue should have their computer mouse taken away for a minimum of 5 years - which shouldn't be too onerous insofar as it's of the caliber of an overly precocious 18 year old co-ed - so in five years they ought to have matured.

So, there it is - my advice, don't waste your time unless you like being annoyed since this isn't even ridicule worthy. :-)

About us movie
whitelili-4235925 August 2021
This movie gives you nonstop pain!

In all movies pain and joy are mostly together to gives a break to audience!

But after lots of sad moments in the last scene it leaves you with a bad feeling of lost and regret.

But anyway i likes the moral of story!

Do what ever you like to do before it's too late.

Stunningly heartbreaking film.
eboneezermac25 August 2021
I thought it was stunning. At first it takes you on a journey that you're unsure of why the couple are doing it. It alludes to the breaking up of the lead couples marriage. (There are only three characters in the whole movie). Then things begin to unravel and you understand why they felt the need to re-explore their relationship in the place they spent their honeymoon years before.

It's more than just a man/woman thing. I found myself identifying with both characters in many ways. I can understand why the film-makers don't give too much away, as the ending absolutely broke me and my partner. It really forces you to remember to love and how to deal with heartbreak. I actually think this film has a really important and lovely message. I told my partner how much I loved them over and over after watching it. Bravo!

Now this is painful

Discovered this film while searching Allison Miller ( Maggie of 'A Million Little things" ) and what a shock. This girl brought tears to my eyes. She is just an incredible dramatic actress.

The movie is presented as a couple trying to save their marriage, don't believe it. Strangely enough they are saying goodbye to their marriage and travel a tortured road to discovery.

I can't give away the ending but if you don't cry you're not human.

Watch it with your loved one.

Wait For It.

If you like the Before trilogy, it's likely that you'll like this one as well. The movie is a succession of conversations between two people about their life together and their relationship- where and how it went wrong, reminiscing the past. At first, there was a feeling of detachment that I felt because it's obvious that they don't want the audience to know too much, but that's fine because at the end of the film you'll understand why.

The film is not the first of its kind but I really like the representation of raw human emotions, connections, relationship, acceptance, forgiveness and the kind of conversation or argument that couples have in reality. All in all, I think it's a deep and wonderful story that has a very meaningful message. It's well structured and told excellently. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful movie all around.

I don't normally watch a movie like this. But I truly enjoyed the plot the actors and the beautiful scenery. This movie will truly bring out your inner self if you have loved and been in a relationship whether it was good or bad. It won't disappoint.

Loved it

Like everyone else, I fell in love with Liebgott in Band of Brothers. I had never heard of this film, but Ross McCall? Sure, I'll give it a shot. I'm so glad I did.

His anguish is real and raw. Her detachment is hard to understand. The emotional gut punch at the end explains it all. Fair warning: You will cry. I'm tearing up just thinking about it. Without getting too personal, the parallels to my own life hit me hard.

Two pretty, imperfect people -- well, three -- beautiful scenery and a timeless story of love and loss. Make some popcorn, keep the box of tissues close and settle in for the ride.
