Monday

Shoutout to Sebastian Stan and Denise Gough for their amazing potrayal of such complex character. It is a nice movie but it is hard to understand. You can easily understand Mickey characters by his behaviour and stuff but it is opposite with Chloe. We know so little about her, her struggle, why was she broke up with Christos? Why was she attended the first party in the first place if she didnt know Argyris? I have a lot of question and it is hard to understand just by seeing her with Mickey. I know the concept of this movie is great and wild weekend and then Monday reality hit you again. But throughout the movie the Fridays are far more highlighted than the Mondays and the Mondays should have potrayed more explosive and emotionaly draining.

If this is another movie like Before sunset, they failed. The movie was kind of okay at times, but messy as to what it wanted to say and pass on. The couple was too childish that got annoying and when finally reality kicked in, the movie ended. So, you end up watching grown up people acting like teenagers.

The film shows two people acting without much regards to consequences. I find them immature, and I can't connect with them at all. I didn't get into the story, or care about the characters. I found it a bore.

I just didnt see a lot of chemistry between the two leads to make it believable that they fell in love so fast in the first place. And they were so insufferable the whole time that it made it hard to like them or want to root for them or whatever. And I get thats kind of the point. They're meant to be this incompatible couple that sticks around because theyre kind of lost in life and at least can be lost together. But, it just wasnt that enjoyable to watch. And it was kind of repetitive as well. They party, they have sex. They kind of regret their choices, they make a huge step forward in their relationship, wash, rinse, repeat. I think it could have made a nice little short film though if it solely concentrated on the first weekend together.

I think if youre looking for a movie about "real relationships" with the ups and downs, I much prefer "Like Crazy". Still, Id give the film a 5. Wasnt the worst thing. Just very mediocre. The actors do the best they can. And I felt moved by Denise Gough at the end when she felt abandoned.

I really hope Sebastian Stan and Denise Gough had a great time in their greek vacations (as of course the whole cast & crew) because I did not. The same problems that I have with Suntan I have with Monday. Great actors, great photography, great locations, overall good ideas, BUT THE SCRIPT! Oh the script once again is so boring, so dumb that my eyes rolled so far up my head that I was staring my brain...

I just can't stand movies were all it would take in real life it'd be just a conversation to solve our problems and in the movie they don't have that conversation because then you'd have no movie!

I guess this movie cements Argyris Papadimitropoulos' "thing" for having adults behaving like moronic kids in his movies. Even the ones that are supposed to be "mature". And in the end, so what? What happened? Do you care? I don't. The director needs to stop watching erotic films for his research in "relationships" and read a book, or grow up.
