Winter Spring Summer or Fall

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.

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.

A very lovely, poignant film!

Really loved Jenna Ortega's portrayal and performance as Remi, it was refreshing given all of her darker, more rugged and "rough around the edges" type of characters recently.

Can't forget to mention Percy Hynes White's portrayal and performance as Barnes! He was just too adorable. He plays the heartthrob so well!

Jenna Ortega and Percy Hynes White's chemistry is what really sold me on this movie though. You can tell their chemistry shines and radiates through the whole movie and they just bounce off of each other's energy, almost like you're watching two friends just have a good time without even knowing it's a movie, you know?

Excited to see what they both do next!

Jenna Ortega and Percy Haynes White have great on-screen chemistry! I have really enjoyed both of their movies/TV shows in the past, and I adore Jenna, but I think people sleep on Percy's acting ability. I hope to see him in more films. In any case, I always love getting to see them together. This movie was a believable budding romance between the girl who has it all together and a more free-spirited guy who is still figuring things out. They meet in the middle in a kind of romantic paradise I think we all want but rarely actually experience. It's a joy to see on screen! Real life starts to creep in, and they have to figure out where that leaves them. Excellent acting from them both! It might not be super deep but this was a good, cozy film that will leave you smiling.

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.
