The movie was great and superb acting by the lead stars esp. To Joshua Garcia this movie has so many lessons about life. Well written movie Not your typical romance comedy instead the drama makes it look Interesting and you feel all the emotions they portray every time they Talk with each other or to their families. This drama teaches us Everything about life whether to accept it or not. Reality it is. I Must say they set the bar high for teens or millennials movie. Aside From that you need tissue here.
