See You on Venus

It is clear to me that this story contains much more than what appears on the surface. It gives me the feeling that its creator and writer is someone with a sensitivity and talent that has yet to be discovered and honored in cinema. Since her novel in which this film is inspired is working so well and has a depth and dimension I rarely find in others... I'm really looking forward to seeing her next works. I enjoyed watching See you on Venus and loved the charisma and tenderness Virginia Gardner brings to her character, cause is close to Mía from the book. Thanks for creating such a lovely story.

The lead actress carried this film. The boy was good too in an understated way. But she exuded a rare freshness.

I like the idea that two wounded souls with a connection help each other while on a mission.

I always come back to the same criticism. Lack of character development. Who is the boy? He has white parents and seems to be of some sort of mixed background. That's odd casting without an explanation.

The girl still calls her foster mother "Mrs." after a decade? The kids are the same age and are from a relatively small area, Yet they have never seen each other?

I get the idea of her needing a driver, but I don't believe that she would camp with someone she didn't even know.

I do respect that there was a scene when the boy breaks down with emotion. That is often missing in emotional films where one character never takes their guard down.

It has a lovely theme of healing, and the power of human connection, with beautiful scenery and a good twist.

Part of what sells it is the use of unknown performers. That makes it seem more real.

After a horrible car accident, kyle is totally devastated. Out of the blue, he meets mia, and she convinces him to join her on the trip to spain, which she already had planned. At first, kyle is a jerk, and won't speak, but after a while (for some reason...) he warms up to her. Kyle even offers to buy her a shirt when she spills something on her own. Although she flat out refuses to wear one of his... which would have been the easier solution... odd. And everywhere they go, they drive right up to where they want to be.... they never seem to have to look for tourist parking. I'm guessing this was written for a younger audience. At about the midpoint, a secret comes out, that changes their relationship completely. Can they go back to at least being friends? Will mia ever find her mother? She and kyle seem to be (finally) honest with each other, and may even help each other. But there are more secrets to come out. Cute little story, in spite of some plot-holes, and silly script issues; were so many things unsaid for a reason, or was it just bad editing? Or maybe a weak script? It's pretty good... script needed a little juicing up. Directed by joaquín llamas. It looks like he has done mostly television prior to this. Story by victoria vinuesa. This definitely has the feel that it started out as someone's personal story. And was jazzed up to make a good film. It's mostly good. A little over-sentimental, for the sake of the heart strings.

First of all, I must say that the movie was good, especially for this era where emotions have faded. It can bring the power of love back to the screen. It's true that the movie was cliché, but as we all know, films with clichéd themes can still have a significant impact if well executed. Especially in a world that needs these kinds of films to remind people of the strength of love. Just like there were issues in the movie, I don't have a problem with its clichéd nature. However, the director and the writer could have added depth to the emotions in many places with some changes. The cinematographer could have captured the depth of emotions more effectively in many emotional scenes through skilled camera movement, and at least prevent the cinematography from being too clichéd. The writer could have crafted stronger dialogues, especially during the climax of the film. Personally, I would rate the cinematography a 6 out of 10, the dialogues a 5 out of 10, and overall, I would give the film a rating of 5 to 5.2 for its effort in portraying love.

Two strangers: Mia, an orphaned girl, and Kyle, a boy reeling from the guilt of a fatal accident, hit the road to find Mia's biological mother. The characters are likeable, their journey is all fun and the Spanish scenery is just beautiful. The story is emotional and a little bit of a tearjerker, too.

Unlike recent YA movies (After, Through My Window, Beautiful Disaster, My Fault), this one is not centered on fighting & sex scenes; instead, it gives off the vibes of good old romances about young love from several years ago. It's the right choice if you want to watch something sweet & cute at the weekend or on a Friday night.
