Espontânea

This isn't a comedy or a horror movie. It's a teen drama. I get what they were trying to do. This is supposed to be a metaphor for life but it doesn't really work. We get it, life is random and sad things happen and we don't know why but that's not why you watch a movie in which teens spontaneously explode. Why them? Why is it happening? Why did it suddenly stop? There's no conclusion to this movie other then the metaphor. It doesn't work and it makes no sense. Life is random and it sucks but oh, it's so great to be alive? Kind of a dumb conclusion if you ask me but whatever.

The cast is ok, they are definitely trying but unfortunately it's not funny, it's not scary and to be honest I was bored for the majority of the movie. Can't recommend it. Sorry.

Btw, Longford should stop playing the teen. She's 26 y/o and she is talented enough to take more serious roles.

How would you feel, if one day there was a chance you could just spontaneously pop, that's how life is for Mara and her fellow students.

I really did enjoy it, talk about a crazy combination of genres, it's shocking, funny, romantic, goofy, but there's also a bit of depth to it, I really liked how it concluded, it delivered some knockout emotional blows.

A definite 80's high school vibe feel about it, it's well presented, nicely made, and well acted.

Ambiguity can sometimes be irritating in films, it wasn't here, the point of the film was the effect on Mara, not the actual spontaneous popping off.

How good was as Katherine Langford as Mara, I thought she was excellent as the lead, I loved how natural she was, and just how the character behaved.

Enjoyed it, 8/10.

It had me in horror. It had me laughing out loud. It had me crying softly. It had me in awe. I felt for the main charaters. And that's what I want from a movie. I loved it. I can't compare it to any other movie. And that's good in my opinion. Go watch and enjoy.

And if you think this is the worst movie of the year, or your life, you should probably watch more movies.

Actually went into this with an optimist view that this was going to suck, it doesn't. It's a bit long however the story keeps you engaged.

The film is a solid 6 and could have been higher, the biggest let down is the end. It sucks so bad that it removes any real positives.

Recommendation is to watch something else.

Ya RomComs are something I avoid at all costs. Theyre always the same and never ever anything that would play out in real life so why give you or your partner unrealistic expectations watching something that is just going to set you up for failure.. This movie SPONTANOUSly turned out to be something completely unexpected - REALLY Good and really funny. The romance part is underplayed and mostly the setup as an after thought for the perfectly timed witty one liners that are delivered spot on with real chemistry you can feel between the main actors. The movie is just a take on the traditional coming of age story and how everything when youre young seems like the end or the beginning of the world and with each death of a young persons dream life its never the end but just the transition to another dream of how life will play out.. I dont know if that makes sense to anyone reading this but it was a really great movie witty well acted and moves along at a good pace. It was this directors debut and I cant wait for more projects in the future to be made by them.. Great job
