Generic
faer_kr28 March 2021
A generic youth drama with an adolescent romantic formula.

It is about a boy who meets a girl in a regatta camp and they fall in love with her, after the camp the problems begin because she has a degenerative disease.

Quality.

Generic totally.

Something of repeated fortune seen in "Under the same star", "A two meters from you", "Life in a year".

It does not add something new and is less dramatic than the others.

Passable performances.

The protagonists have chemistry on screen.

The ending is totally predictable and somewhat cut off.

Some unlikely situations but the same within the plot.

Nice Sunday.

Coming of Age
kosmasp16 April 2021
Coming of Age stories .. you are either into them or you are not. Of course it doesn't hurt if the movies are good anyway. I would say this one is a decent effort - I do understand if you think a bit differently though. There is the pacing thing, the likeability of the characters and other stuff to consider.

I was not bored watching this, but I was not really smitten too much either. Of course the target audience is a different one than myself. Still there have been movies made, similar to this that were able to be more in line with me or had more to entertain me. A fine movie if nothing else, but more for those into them.

azoso0810 April 2021
Well directed, stunning photography. It is an ok film to watch on Netflix. Story is seen and re-seen.

So no coup d'etat here.

Decent. Hot main character
sperasophia2 June 2021
This movie is sweet and has a nice story line but is stupid. The main character Lorenzo is super hot and that's why I watched it.

could have become ...
ops-5253525 March 2021
A marvel in the silverscreen world, if with another director, or with a different screenplay, or simply by using another main cast, because something went really wrong in a kind of genre that usually hits the homerun whatever...

its an italian love you till death, coming of age romance drama, with extremely good looking young actors, in a extremely beautiful filming locations near palermo ( that agonizes me alot because this is the time of the year i usually do a medical rehabilitation trip to warmer latutudes e.g. Gran canaria , and i cant travel anywhere due to corona) , and most of all its a film about how to say arrivederci in an extremely slow tempo, without the typical italian verbal and nonverbal communication techniques. The caracterbuilding is also slippery when wet and the split enz relationships are pretty complicated. The health issue isnt cancer this time, its a nevromuscular dystrofi that is the silent slowly developing death sentence in this flick. So its easy to summarize, it misses the target due to untrained castmaterial, and the storys plotted terribly amateuristic. Even though some good scenery filming, and clear blue sky and perfect sailing conditions its not good enough.so sore and yet forgotten by the grumpy old man.

Lovely coming of age film
andredejongh4 April 2021
Lovely, well acted film. Sensitive, romantic, coming of age. Great soundtrack. You get a sense of family and belonging, of life, relationships and living life even when experiencing love. Love between parents and love between lovers. Life can last 10 years, 16 years or a life time. The same goes for love. It is an honour to be able to love someone, no matter for how long.

Chemistry!
christophevermaelen25 January 2022
What a lovely little film this was. The chemistry between Elvira Camarrone and Roberto Christian was responsible for this, but the extras were top notch as well. You can measure quality by that, by the fact that the supporting roles are also played with care and attention. The mix of love, hope and sadness makes this a movie that can proudly stand next to 'The Fault in our Stars', 'Now is good' and others in its genre. Highly recommended for those who enjoy this genre of films. For sure.

Skinny sky cave bear.
catpantry14 April 2021
Sanders cruises around the parameter of wendys. He keeps adjusting the review mirror; trying to look for something like a twig figure back there, or someone. The CEO of wendys, Blake withers, stares at the situation on a monitor from afar (grease bathing). And the main person in charge here, sid mctrydon lifts up and twits his finger at the moon. The people found mctrydon doing sit ups in the desert. Mctrydon said, "guys, before you ask me about this situation remember that I didnt learn how to interact with people and im gonna be homeless for several weeks or more."

Gorgeous!
jodyscott318 May 2022
Such a gorgeous movie, full of sentiment and beauty. The main characters are so sweet and cute. Such an adorable couple! The music is absolutely luminous, from the soundtrack to the popular playlist of tunes. Much of the scenery is beautiful...the ocean, a mural in a museum, and far-off memories. This movie made me laugh, cry, get mad, and excited. Overall it is a very sweet, gorgeously told story.

Why?
binaaaridi2 May 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I love it and it was so beautiful but why should they make it a sad ending like a leg muscle deases get her killed? Like that ain't logic they just want make it more dramatic would've preferred if they kept her alive but on a wheelchair or at least showed parents and others reaction. Over all gd just disappointed with ending.
