Summer of 8

This movie was slow. Too slow. The plot had potential and the scenes had beauty, but the movie dragged. Acting was dull.

They came to talk... 8 teenaged friends gather on the beach for one last party before going separate ways (college). Characters are two dimensional and the script won't draw any of them in a sympathetic light. Conversations and personal concerns, meant to be heartrending and deep, are kinda almost similar to what bright kids talk about, but don't take the extra step of being remotely interesting.

The way the actors talk is very realistic (though they look a bit old for the part). The writers did an amazing job portraying the differences in individual perspectives and how they act with one another. Though I can see how someone can get bored of it, for those who can relate to a similar situation, Summer of 8 will trigger emotions you feel in such moments. As a recent high school graduate enjoying my last summer before adulthood, this movie truly reached me, thus earning a 10 star rating from me.

Nice premise. However, they look more like college seniors. Also, too deep talking for your typical high schooler. Plus, they listen to no music while hanging out. Great locales. The female cast did the better acting.

"Eight close friends soak up their last day of summer together on the beach before parting ways for college."

This must be the longest day of the year because it seems like it will never end. Summer 8 it is like a porn movie without the action part.It's a long day at the beach that moves too slow. The sun is still high in the sky and you can't see the moment for it to end.

The script is too trashy, weak and obscene.

Nonetheless, i have to congratulate the cinematographer work making not only beautiful images but more important than that is appropriate images.
