Featured reviews
Screenplay by Peter Hutchings was lame. Neither did the cringe comedy nor the stuttering awkward conversations strike a chord with the audience. I don't know if he had made justice for the book but definitely not for the producers.
Music by Jeff Cardoni was the only admirable thing in the film. It may not be the best but it's good and not odd.
The cast members Alexandra Daddario, Tyler Hoechlin and others have perfectly acted out their role but what didn't come out goodiin the film is that the pathetic characters they play.
To conclude, Can you keep a secret is a clichéd romantic film that's slow paced and plain with weird characters and cringe comedy.
Just read the book. It's amazing. The movie? Don't spend money. Wait for Netflix
Yes I've read the book, I think it's unfair to compare the two as the book is always going to be better. I've never seen a film that's better than the book
It's quite clearly a romcom so expectations should be far more realistic. And nit picking about the plot.....it's fiction. Just switch off and let it wash over you and enjoy, that's what films are made for.

- Quotes
Emma Corrigan: [to Jack] My whole life, I always based my value in myself off of what other people thought of me. I completely lost sight of who I was. And then I met you. And I told you everything about me. I told you all of my secrets. And, you didn't leave. Even though you knew all of my goofiness and my weirdness, and all of my fears and my insecurities, you didn't leave. And I didn't know anything about you, but it didn't matter because I knew your heart.
[begins to cry]
Emma Corrigan: You made me believe that I could be loved just by being myself. You made me believe that the only way to be loved was by being myself. And that is amazing.
