Minha Culpa: Londres

I didn't expect this remake would be this good. I lowkey like it better.

Not bad re-adaptation at all. It totally got its own vibe and humor. Love those American-British "beefs" shown. So cute.

The chemistry between Asha and Matt is subtle yet strong, making me giggling and blushing so much. Their eye contact is insane.

Coherent storytelling, smooth editing and directing, beautiful camerawork and most importantly, the song choices are PERFECT, even the original music score is perfect for me.

You can obviously tell it's from female directors. Everything is just so gentle and delicate.

It definitely becomes my comfort movie. I love it so much.

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.

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!

I think that it was okay. Not surprising but at the same time not bad. Actually, I think that the main characters had more chemistry in this version than the original spanish one. In this movie, they changed some aspects but they kept loyal to the script. Also, in my opinion, I prefer this Nick than the other. I agree that this one is more congruent to the book. Here I found him gentle, loyal, interesting and really in love with Noah. I don't have any idea If they are going to bring the second and third movie like the other sequel, but If so, I will definitely watch it. Another point I would like to talk is the soundtrack. I prefer it in the other movie. Despite of that, it was a okay movie.

I absolutely loved Culpa Mia, but I didn't have high hopes for this movie. However, I was proven wrong when I watched it. It exceeded my expectations. I love how they added different elements and scenes from the book whilst using scenes from the original movie and adding a bit of a twist to them. The two actors were great! The passion, and chemistry was there for sure, I'm really impressed. I will say though, the main difference was the level of spice in this movie, but the rest of it made up for that so it's not as important but the spice level in the original movie was a lot more, and a lot better but either way, this movie was great and I'd definitely recommend! It didn't feel too dragged out, the 2 hours were used wisely and I was interested throughout.
