Press Play and Love Again

So at the beginning the story is (almost) pretty normal.

Laura,a talented painter,meet Harrison,who's working at a record store.

They fall in love, he teach her how to surf, she shows him her painting.

Pretty normal,right?

BUT.

Even if the movie is (apparently) set in present day, they star to make a mix tape.

Yep,that thing that we born before internet or mp3 used to do on music cassette.

They don't make a spotify playlist or something like that.

Nope,they record songs on a music cassette.

It's kind of weird but nice,i guess?

Well,that the "plot device" that the movie use.

Because when he tragically dies, she discover that when she listen to that mix tape she can travel trough time.

And she can try to save him.

I will not tell you where the movie goes from there,but you should know that it shows how time travel can mess up your ad others lives.

Overall a pretty good movie, not a masterpiece but a nice story with a lot of heart.

Forget the negative reviews and make your own mind. It's a beautiful movie that will touch your heart. Take my word on it. The performances are solid, the images are so beautiful and the story is so, so touching and inspiring.

Press Play is a delightful story of young love. There are reminiscences of The Lake House, a movie I loved. I enjoyed watching the two leads fall in love. The main plot device is unusual and played out in a very enjoyable way. Danny Glover is perfect in his role. The sound track is great. I really liked every song as they were woven into the plot. Press Play made me very happy. It's a fine "date night" film.

Toothclenching lovestory, stealing ideas from ''always'', ''ghost'' and the latest newcomer on the mixtapefront , namely ''mixtape'', even though it happens in the hawaiian surf, at a cool vl record shop, and use danny glover as a filantropic flypaper...it is not the same...also a musical score chosen to sound the love on the infamous mixtape may just interest 5 % of the audience and sounds no kind a reckognition in a grumpy old mans quite music filled memory.

The plot says that the mixtape can reviwe the past, so if you have lost a loved one through the years, it might bite on you, i was just not bitten by this ''no no no'' search and research cryoutloud lovesteemer, i give just a 5 for the thought not so much for the performance.

As someone who had a fiance' that died 18 years ago and is still dealing with the pain, I wanted to like this movie so bad. Anyone who has lost a loved one would give anything to have to see them again, even for a moment. I guess I should not have had such high hopes for it.

The premise is cool. Although any old head who had cassettes knows about the B side and how that works.

Aside from that. Idk who the lead girl was but she had the emotional range of a leaf. The guy and girl had no chemistry and it was hard to believe they even fell in love. I know it's a 1.5 hour movie and showing that kind of passionate love could be tricky in a short time frame but it can be done. Plus I was highly distracted by the main guys Adam's apple. That thing did better acting than the two leads.

I wanted more for this movie but it just didn't cut it.
