Summary
Reviewers say 'Chemical Hearts' delves into teenage love, loss, and mental health, often likened to John Green's style. Lili Reinhart's performance and the lead chemistry receive praise. However, the film faces criticism for its slow pace, clichés, and pretentiousness. Some argue it romanticizes mental health issues rather than addressing them realistically. Deviations from the book's plot and character development disappoint fans. The ending elicits mixed reactions, contributing to the film's divisive reception.
Featured reviews
Chemical Hearts is a decent film that spreads mental health awareness. The movie is a love story about a hopeless romantic falling in love with the new girl at school. Lili Reinhart's acting is incredibly touching. Despite the fantastic acting, the story was poorly executed. The plot seemed unfinished. I would recommend this movie to suckers for sappy, romantic, chick-flicks.
Lost my words...
A deep embodiment of what it is to forget who you used to be. Dealing with the unknown, people tend to forget who they were or who they wanted to be. Watch this movie through the eyes of your old teen self. As someone that needs to learn more of what no one, but life itself, can teach us. Give it a chance.

Being Young is so painful,
It's almost,like, too much to feel!
I'm 20 and i could soooo relate it!
6/10 - promising young adult novel adaptation explores lots of worthy themes but never manages to truly lift off the ground
It avoids the typical teenage romance genre clichés and instead focuses on character development and how relationships at a young age shape individuals into who they become as they grow older
Great soundtrack and performances by the lead pair
