Io rimango qui

Seen on a trans-Atlantic flight to Europe.

The most generous thing I can say about this movie is that it is a Bucket List copy-cat, only the main protagonist is a teenage girl. She has been diagnosed with terminal cancer and goes off, away from home, to experience one adventure after another.

The movie tries too hard to be serious and hip at the same time and fails miserably. The acting is predictable and one-dimensional and the plot and "adventures" incredulous.

The only noteworthy aspect of this movie is that it has perhaps the funniest title of any movie in recent memory. Still, stay away, far away, from this film.

Even harder when you are diagnozed with something that is not ... well you can just shake off. As the title suggests the movie is about what life can be and how destiny can be quite ... well mean I reckon would be one word to say.

Yes the acting may not always be top notch, yes there are cliches - so many that you may cringe more than once. But if you cut it some slack, if you just overlook Til Schweiger as dad and just go with the flow of where the movie is heading (no pun intended), there is some interesting fun and entertainment along the road (ok maybe pun intended).
