Invierno primavera verano, otoño

This four seasons rom-com addresses love aggravated by expectations, self-expectations and the belief that you should do as you planned or everything is doomed (I personally think quite the opposite, that life is a forever changing substance and trying to restrict it to preset steps is a total waste of opportunities). Characters start with firm beliefs that are rather different but their relationship and influence they have on each other could change their perspectives and life choices.

The thing I really loved about this movie is the way Jenna Ortega and Percy Hynes White managed to portray the bloom of love and the growth of it adding to the predictable plot delicious nonverbal details - subtle face expressions, glances, all these i-will-sit-closer-to-you and turn-my-body-to-you signals. The movie tells the story of attraction that you can feel and no amount of low budget flaws can distract from the emotional effect of it. You will ache for them and you will root for them for their paths to be aligned in the end.

Such a relaxed, sweet, heartfelt film anyone who loves love stories would definitely enjoy it. A great teen movie that captures the magic of connection. However, it left me wanting more, as I was getting into the story the credits came up, leaving me saying "is that it", I wanted to see the story unfold further, across every season, as stated in the title. That's a point! It would be amazing to see this story continue and brought to life as a series or with a sequel, where we follow the characters' journey as they grow. We truly need more, calming and relaxed love story films like this nowadays.

Personally, i really enjoyed this movie though there is one or two things that could have been better or done better its almost perfect. Just gotta say love the romance and chemistry between ortega and hynes white's character Remi and barnes and also the high school setting adds on to the feeling of first- young, naive love which is an aspect that made this particular movie more memorable and enjoyable. I gotta add on that the first day this movie premiered i went to go see it with friends there wasn't a huge amount of people in the cinema room that i was watching it in but it was really just a beautiful fascinating experience and as a matter of fact i would totally recommend this movie to be watched.

I have traditionally low expectations for contemporary romantic movies. Most of them are stuffy, pretentious, full of writer's/director's attempts to fit agenda and to make something likeable to everyone. And yep, we went to watch this exactly with these expectations, prepared to another one 2 stars romcom. And how surprised I was when it turned out to be very cute, touching and nostalgic.

It shows in a naturalistic way how teenagers make their first adult decisions, how cute and funny it all looks, and then remains in the memory for a lifetime.

And hmmmmm very strange, but it probably was the best role of Jenna Ortega I've seen. She rarely looks good as angry, self-centered or disappointed teenager, but is absolutely amazing as happy young girl being in love. Percy Hynes White is also a near-perfect casting choice.

So what do we have in the end:

• insane chemistry;
• very very good lighting, color, cinematography and music;
• simple, but such a nostalgic story;
• there are some questions to the script, pacing, real life representation and editing;
• but the first two points absolutely compensate it all.

Was very surprised and happy to watch it in Warsaw on holidays. It reminded me of my own story about the meeting on the train and all the emotions that came after. Tiffany Paulsen, thank you for this fun time.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie from start to finish. The script and directing were very good and I think they made good use of the theme of the seasons. The plot was not revolutionary but it was sweet and kept me engaged every single minute. But the 2 leads are what made this movie really special for me. I know Percy Hynes White was in Wednesday with Ortega but I didn't really notice him in that. I first noticed him in My Old Ass with Maisy Stella and thought he was delightful. So, when I saw that he was starring in this, I immediately wanted to see it. I found Jennifer Ortega great in Wednesday so I was all in. Neither of them disappointed! I found their acting to be excellent and the chemistry between them was lovely in every single scene--like they are genuinely friends. One of the things I appreciate most about him is his "natural" / authentic vibe. I am so sick of love stories that revolve around narcissists and superficial views of "love." I would very much love to see more stories about love that evolves from friendship with decent guys who respect women. I would gladly watch a sequel or this stretched into a series or mini-series. I'm in the mood for feel-good, pleasant, decent films these days and this one delivers. The other characters are not drawn with any detail but they serve their part. I thought her parents did a good job of being what they were supposed to be and I enjoyed the band members' reactions. I'll be looking out for these two leads moving forward and would love to see them in something together again!
