Before We Go

I haven't seen a movie like "Before we go" for a very long time. The script, the story the characters everything is just so charming and cute. I love that kind of "intimacy" on screen,it's intelligent and honest. I'm with a smile on my face after the movie. I think this is definitely not a commercial movie so if you need to see something different but at the same time very close to you. That will be not a waste of your time but a reason to questioning yourself and consume things in a different way

Very true, gentle... great directing work, light and acting at the same time Perfect place to chose New York City by night...applause to the cast +crew. If you need to see something smart,depth and sensitive... Enjoy:)

To bash this movie as a "Before Sunrise" knockoff is easy, and maybe even somewhat true. But at the same time it would be missing the point.

Yes Chris Evans' directorial debut is also about two characters who experience a chance meeting and spend a night together. But "Before We Go" is if anything about adult choices and confronting their consequences. The exuberance of romantic love that is part of Richard Linklater's 1995 masterpiece is merely the starting point here. Nick (Chris Evans) and Brooke (Alice Eve) are beyond their college years and try to make amends with elements of their past.

The strolling poetry of "Before Sunrise" is turned into an odyssey that throws the couple into various directions. Kismet is of course the essence of the story and it has to be said that the screenplay sometimes struggles with the very basic conceit of a night in New York. But...there are a few scenes that are spellbindingly played by the two wonderful leads and a few truths about love and heartbreak are uttered that remain very real.

It could also be said that the movie delves into certain elements of "Before Midnight", even though it never reaches the depth of that movie either.

Yet "Before We Go" merits a viewing for those introspective souls who put their faith in destiny while being sometimes at odds with their journey.

In what is clearly Chris Evans homage to Before Sunrise and other 'one night and one setting' romances, Before We Go still manages to do more than charm and romance, it brings new ideas and concepts to a genre that always seems to be flooded with cliches. I love what this film says about fate, friendship, and that life is really just a play where everyone plays their own role in an overall story. Evans and Alice Eve have great chemistry and it's brief runtime makes re-watchability feel like an easy and necessary task. I think this one has even the most cynical viewers finding something refreshing real in Before We Go.

7.5/10

Chris Evans and Alice Eve played such emotional, brave, and lovely characters in this movie. The movie is not the kind of romance that shows to have a marriage of happily forever after, but instead it shows the deepest life moments in such a few hours. Chris' acting was great and Alice's was good, but not so great since she had to use her American accent. The movie is also the first movie to be directed by Chris Evans, which is pretty cool to see. But to be honest, Before We Go is such a beautiful movie. It's very realistic to me, and it brought a message for me that one can actually love more than one person in this world. People of all ages are recommended to see this, and not only girls, but also some of the guys who are into these kinds of movies. Trust me guys, this little adventure will surely pleased the money you spend to watch this movie and at the end of the day, you will not be disappointed.

This is my first time reviewing and I hope it helps people out. Thanks for reading the review and Peace !

I'm going to make it short. I'd rather not go into elaborate analyses and proper assessment the more so because I don't want to sound pretentious. Let me just say, that I thoroughly enjoyed the film. It is funny, thoughtful (but not overdramatised), clever and sensitive at the same time. Finally a film where love, a man and a woman and the relationship between them is treated with respect, gentleness and is elevating, and refreshing. The script is great, the acting is superb, the dialogues, those subtle gestures, looks, smiles are all in place. Nothing overdone just treated with natural care. What little glitches there are in this movie simply add to its charm. Watching this film is a great experience, it's great entertainment. I warmly recommend watching it.
