The Way You Look Tonight

I nearly gave up on this film in the first half hour, but lead actor Nick Fink kept me interested. For a newcomer, he has immense chemistry with the camera and believable delivery.

The script is flawed in that it has natural humor, but has a sitcom smirk. The two go together like honey and motor oil. All of the bones are here for a spectacular TV series, if handled mindfully and steered away from gags.

The parallels with people in so many life situations who do not conform to expectations is right there. Examine the human experience in those varying situations and the scripts write themselves.

This was a valiant effort and there are some promising talents in the extensive cast.

Production note: this is a film where photos with the names in the end credits seem crucial.

I caught this at a film festival and am so excited that it's finally available to the general public. In addition to a well thought-out story, its an impressive acting feat from the members of the cast who were able to so convincingly play the same character. The leading actor did a fantastic job of maintaining chemistry with the rest of the cast. It was at times funny, heartbreaking, and moving. Highly recommend.

This is a small independent movie, I don't recall ever having seen any of them in prior roles. Yet I was impressed at how uniformly good and authentic the acting is. In fact having "unknown" actors probably helps its impact.

I'll not give away the plot, which is something I've never encountered before, but the cast list and characters gives a hint, there are Heloise #1 through Heloise #17. If you find a person who "clicks" with you, how much does their "looks" matter in all the days afterwards?

Interesting and entertaining, my wife and I watched it on Amazon streaming movies.

The characters are all likeable . . . loveable even. The acting is good. The concept original.

The problem is that, while it's watchable and it IS absorbing, it isn/t either of those things to a great enough extent to rate the numbers of stars I'm seeing here.

I watched and enjoyed the whole thing, sort of. But had to fast forward several times 'cause it just wasn't quite absorbing enough.

It IS heartwarming . . . it's just, I guess, not quite well enough written to draw you all the way in.

Very loving, though. It has a good heart.

The idea is interesting, and the first 30 minutes or so are intriguing as you start to understand what's happening. But then the movie veers off into "A Very Special Episode" territory, laying on the morality and social criticism one trowel-full after another.

Maybe this sort of extremely obvious analogizing works with the 20-something crowd, but I'm old enough that I'd prefer some subtlety or, hell, even better, how about keep the interesting parts of the story and try to make a movie that isn't lazy social awareness?
