Everything, Everything

Yes! Even if it seems like cliche, it's definitely worth a watch! (If you're looking for something romantic obviously).

I'm an action movie kind of guy. I see every Marvel, DC and transformers movie as soon as they come out. I care not for chick flicks. Luckily my wife doesn't force me to go to them either. I watched this movie because it's our anniversary and I wanted to watch a movie I knew my wife would enjoy. I went into this movie with a Large soda and Large popcorn with the expectation to keep myself energized so that I wouldn't fall asleep on my wife. NOT NEEDED.

This movie didn't have the most action packed story line but the story line was good. They progressed the story at a good pace, not lingering on any one scene too long. They did a good job developing the characters backgrounds and helping you understand everyone and had a nice plot twist at the end that didn't feel rushed as if they had run out of budget. They also didn't linger with the closing.

While this movie didn't make me want to go see other chick flicks or go read the book, I definitely enjoyed this movie. I know that some of the ways they portrayed SCID and people who are disabled isn't necessarily accurate, but it doesn't take away from the quality of the movie. After all, this wasn't a documentary but a romance movie so I'm OK with them taking a few liberties with the portrayal of her condition.

Everything, Everything is a very good movie for the following reasons.

1. It is a very good looking movie. The hustle and bustle of city life, the peace of suburban life, and the beauty of the ocean are wonderfully captured.

2. It has wonderful animation.

3. It has very tender performances from all the actors. The actors made me really care about the characters.

4. The main characters are intelligent, interesting and complex.

5. It is an interracial love story that never focused on race. The story's focus is on the beautiful beginning of a relationship between a young couple that evolves into love.

Everything, Everything is a wonderful summer sleeper hit movie!

short review by Krystal

Everything Everything

non-spoiler alert: This movie is absolutely beautiful. I couldn't stop smiling during the entire movie. Amandla and Nick did an amazing job portraying Maddy and Olly. The movie is very faithful to the book (something that I appreciate a lot) The soundtrack is perfect for the story. And I can't wait to watch it again.

'Everything, Everything' gives off every vibe of just another 'Fault in Our Stars' but impressively enough, it somehow does something just a little differently. Whether it was the clear chemistry and/or the fantastic acting ability given off by Amanda Stenberg, it ultimately results in a product that is pure and genuine that shows a young love as innocent and honest as it could be. Besides minor petty things, there is not much to complain about. Being a typical young adult drama, I can not give a stronger rating but all things considered, this is a glowing thumbs up for 'Everything, Everything'.
