I Want You (2012)
5/10
Little bit of everything
17 August 2017
Warning: Spoilers
The movie has a little bit of everything such as love, secret affair, betrayal, friendship, family tragedy, and coming-of-age, but it lacks a central focus and thereby, at the end of the movie the viewer feels like "I would have guessed this easily" and "nothing much has happened since the start". A good and riveting movie should attract the viewer into the film on its own despite being a sequel. Yes, there is a story, but it is so predictable and slow-moving. Besides, the characters are not elaborated throughout the movie. Hugo, the protagonist seems to be in agony, but only because of losing his best friend or having been dumped by Babi, who seems to be too shallow as a character. They should have gone deeper on Hugo's character and built a solid character. Side-line stories like the family tragedy of Babi's parents serve no purpose and they seem to have stolen from the main story. Because of not dwelling on the main story between Hugo and the girl he just met, it is difficult, as a viewer, to feel the love among this couple. Despite these lacking points, it can be a good shot for romance- lovers.
