My Fault: London

The problem with new movies is that reality is mixing with fantasy and super hero, by itself the movie could for sure be enjoyable but be aware that movie characters in particular Noah is built in a crazy excess of qualities you would never and ever find in 18yo girl and neither in a woman... the plot itself is a rumble mumble of twits and change of personalities at limit of being boarderline let's get back to reality please.

If you can through this the story is the typical action romance for teenagers, with twist, challenges, sports cars and adrenaline mixed in unprobeable jam with romance, careness, tenderness, and love.

My fault London was better than what I thought it would be. Nick and Noah characters were the same but a lot different than the original version. My fault London felt more toned down vs Culpa Mia was, the characters seemed a bit nicer and loving to each other, it made a ittle more sense for the chemistry but culpa mia they were more in sync with each other at the end. But it wast surprisingly was a good movie it was beyond what I expected. I would recommend watching it if you liked Culpa Mia!it was the same plot line but totally different tone and vibe of the original movie. Nick and Noah are portrayed differently especially Nick, he was like so perfect in this movie.

Culpa Mia is so much better than My fault London. The acting in Culpa Mia is better than the London version and the actors had way better chemistry than the London version movie. I thought the movie was okay. I felt like I was watching fast and furious Tokyo Drift. I did like how it had more action in this one. I felt like Nick and Noah needed to hate each other more. Nick wasn't that mean to Noah when he kicked her out of his car and Noah just went along with it. I felt like they were to nice to each other. I hated how Nick's hair was blonde that is all I felt like I was looking at the whole time. Culpa Mia's Ronnie is so much better actor than the Ronnie in this one. This one felt fake compared to Culpa Mia Ronnie. Also where was Noah's mom and Nick's dad in all of this. Culpa Mia Noah and Nick had way more chemistry than my fault London's Noah and Nick. Noah and Nick romance scenes were okay in this movie compared to Culpa Mia.

Honestly I was very sceptical about this movie, I couldn't find a reason for a remake, but they proved me wrong. It was a nice movie with better characters than the original movie.

I really liked the changes they made to the plot and the characters. Culpa Mia portraits a really toxic relationship, this one was actually sweet and romantic and their whole relationship development makes sense. The difference in the Nick character was great and he was likeable in this movie. I didn't like his toxic character in the original, so it was a good surprise.

The protagonists had great chemistry so it made all the movie easier to watch, while knowing what was happening. I liked the more action factor, it added more levels to the story. And I also liked so much how the anxiety of Noah and the drinking problem of some characters were portaided.

If you are in for an entertaining and romantic story, choose this one. If you like angst and the toxic type watch the original!

I haven't seen the original Spanish film or its sequel, nor read the bestselling books. I only watched it out of curiosity about how a story about step-siblings falling in love became a wildly popular franchise on Prime Video. Why not start with the English remake of "Culpa Mia?" There was a chance I wouldn't get the hype, but I thought the trailer looked solid, so it doesn't hurt to give it a chance. Wow, I somehow liked it!

To start with the positives, Asha Banks and Matthew Broome delivered endearing performances as Noah and Nick. I was surprised at how much I felt their chemistry despite the circumstances that brought them together. In particular, I felt that Banks' layered work is worth watching this movie alone, and I'm interested in seeing what she does next.

Second, Charlotte Fassler and Dani Girdwood's directing was vibrant. Fassler and Girdwood make Noah and Nick's forbidden romance very steamy. I'm not one to seek out those kinds of films and TV shows, but it's something to mention, especially if you're into that stuff. Ed Moore's exceptional cinematography adds to the film's overall sexiness.

Also, those racing and car chase sequences rule. For people like me (somewhat) eagerly awaiting the Fast & Furious franchise finale, these scenes are the perfect antidote. That's the reason why the trailer compelled me to watch it, and while it's not what the film's about, damn it, the car chasing and racing's unabashed fun!

While I don't think it'll be a contender for Best or even my personal favorite of the year, I appreciated Melissa Osbourne's screenplay more than I thought I would. I can't overlook how engaged I was in the narrative, regardless of its issues, which we'll get to, and how Noah and Nick's relationship would develop and work in general.

For the last positive, the pacing never drags. I never felt the two-hour runtime, even though there were flaws, and I was always curious to see where this story would go.

Unfortunately, issues are present. However, they're not as large as I thought, and I only noticed two.

First, it contains numerous cliches that have become staples of the romance film genre. I won't spoil any of them, but if you have seen your fair share of romance movies - of which I have; I'm a fan of romcoms - you'll see various moments happen from a mile away.

Speaking of predictable, there's a plot detail - if you're curious, it's in IMDb and Google's summary of this film, but I didn't see it coming - that the film treats like a twist. I don't know why it does, and, again, no spoilers, but the detail brings the film full circle. Said circle leads to a third act that dares to clash with the remaining one hundred minutes leading up to it. Luckily, those are the only two issues I have with the movie, but they still keep the film from being great.

I'm shocked that I liked "My Fault: London" as much as I did. It's a film that I felt wouldn't break from a saturated market of book-to-screen YA romance adaptations. "Twilight" is what people almost always think about first, but I haven't seen that saga in years. I'll use a more recent example that I stupidly watched to prepare for its sequel I couldn't finish, but luckily, mentioning it in the review here will give me some justification for watching it. Two years ago, a film called "Beautiful Disaster" came out, and it was an unfun, cliched mess that wanted to make a franchise out of the books. I couldn't care less, but in the case of "My Fault," I'm curious to see where they go. I know there's already a sequel to the original Spanish film, but I'm interested in seeing what happens next in this interpretation. Bring on "Your Fault: London" and "Our Fault: London." Let's hope the law of diminishing returns doesn't ruin this promising franchise.

Technically, cliches aside, the acting, directing, screenplay, and cinematography make for a 9/10 technical score.

For the enjoyment score, it's not going to be for everyone. You must ask yourself if you can accept a fictional story about a step-sibling romance. If you're able to, you'll likely enjoy it. Fans of the books will fall in love with it, and casual movie fans like me will find themselves baffled by how much they enjoyed it, so the enjoyment score for the latter audience is a 7/10. I never thought this would be something I'd recommend as an entertaining time, but here I am writing this review!
