    Good Escape

    I completely agree with the other review. I picked this movie because it seemed like something whimsy that didn't need all my attention. But, like the other review also states, I found myself pausing it when I needed to step away and would rewind if I missed something. There were a couple of slow parts and I think you notice them because most movies have a lot more action. Whereas this movie just told a story with a really basic message. Even though it's a teen movie I think the message transcends to any age. You need to see the whole thing to understand why it is good, and after you watch it you think about. The movie left me hopeful. Feels weird but I don't hate it.

    I took off one star due to a couple awkward scenes that have been over played in all movie plots.

    Great!!

    It was a great movie, really cheered me up and made me laugh a lot. Makes you think about life, if you pay close attention the movie has a meaning behind it so I think the title really fits it. The actors look like they really put their all in it to make the movie more enjoyable for the audience and it really worked. The plot is great honestly, I loved this movie so much I can't out it into words! This is now one of my favorite movie, I love it! It reminded me of "starstruck" BUT THATS MY ONE OF MY FAVES TOO SO THAT MADE ME LOVE IT EVEN MORE!!! but i'm super proud of everyone in it and specially Matthew since it was his first movie, can't wait for more to come!

    Very good

    I really liked it. Its a quiet film, no action but is powerfully lead by the dialogue and chemistry between the two leads.

    It felt like Jordan Jaye may have been modelled ever so slightly on Justin Bieber? Or maybe I am overthinking it.

    Highly recommend it!

    Cheesy Young Romance Movie -With Something to Say that Speaks to the Viewer

    It might just be the mood I'm in, or the fact that I've been up so late tonight, but this movie made me feel something more than the average teen romance movie has in a long time. I chose to watch this movie tonight because it happened to be uploaded onto my preferred streaming site just today, and it looked like something I could watch without really having to focus on it. While it definitely wasn't the kind of movie that required you to watch every minute of it, I still found myself pausing it every time I had to go out of ear shot. Something about this quiet film, with its very straightforward plot and unembellished characters, is just different enough to make it impactful. It reminded me that the best films are ones you don't have any expectations about at all. You don't see them coming. The acting is a little underwhelming, but it isn't a film that really asks for too much from the actors to begin with. It manages to accomplish it's goal of entertaining, without trying to be something more. Because of that, it left me feeling perfectly content. Sometimes, that's all I want from a film.

    Amazingly good!

    This movie was better than what I expected! They should definitely make a second part! I want to know what happens when he comes off tour and if they get into a relationship or not! Matt did an excellent job at acting and I really think he should start doing it. Very pleased with this movie. 10/10. If they make a second movie I would love to see more about Jordans life and more from his point of view. The movie is basically a fan girls fan fiction come to life and yes I did fan girl a little not going to lie , but I would honestly love to see a second part to this movie. If you haven't watched it , go watch it , you won't be let down! And if you're from the UK and want to watch it , they have put it on Netflix.
