It's important to remember that's this is a romance drama staring Sofia Carson and Nicholas Galitzine. It isn't going to feature academy award winning acting, but it also doesn't mean it's horrible either. I actually really liked this movie, more than I expected. Sofia Carson also exceeded my expectations. Nicholas was better than he was in Cinderella and had more chemistry with his female lead, which is kind of setting the bar low. But I personally disagree with the NYT review of the movie. I think this is one of the better novel to screen romance dramas on Netflix. I actually liked the story and while the pacing dragged a bit, it flowed right without cheap plot devices. There's so miracle that keeps him from going to jail and in the end, they all learn their respective lessons. I would actually watch this movie again.
