Before We Go

The word to describe this movie is, 'humanistic'. It isn't your typical Hollywood movie, and though doesn't have the feel of an indie film, it is somewhat in between the two. Before We Go is a film about raw human emotions and behavior. It explores the lives of two strangers as they connect with each other on a individual level.

While it can be boring for those who are used to scenes of action after action, I found it reasonably enjoyable. As the film goes on, the characters' backgrounds are slowly revealed and we learn more about them. For me, the movie does not really excite or get me on the edge of my seat wondering what will happen next, or what happened before. Rather, it made me live in the moment of the movie. I was going through the night with the characters, much like how you can't rush life.

Evans does a great job as the charming, helpful, lost soul who wishes to escape his life by wasting time. On the other hand, it took awhile for me to warm up to Eve's character. Eve's acting felt a little awkward initially, and the chemistry between the two felt a bit off. But as the movie went on, it gets better, and that could reflect how connections are made in real life.

Overall, a charming movie with a intricate perspective on life and love.

This movie is in my watchlist for 8 months. And tonight it screamed to me. The movie cover said "Watch me! Critics are wrong!" And I watched it. The plot is there is a man and there is a woman and of course there is only one night. They stuck in their lives and both of them having a bad time. They met accidentally. They want to help each other. Thats all. Perfect plot for a drama movie because it is similar to 'Before Sunrise' (8.1 IMDb rating) and 'Once' (7.9 IMDb rating).

"But there is something wrong with Before We Go" thats what critics say. I think it is not bad as they say. I mean it doesn't deserves a 31 metascore. It should be 60+. And the Box Office of that film is very bad.

I think Chris Evans did a good job at directing and Alice Eve fits the role perfectly. Before We Go's cinematography is not good as Before Sunrise/Sunset/Midnight but it is not bad.

When it ends it gives you pain deep in your heart. Because of that I give the title 8/10. I mean I feel that. It touches your heart. You can feel pain, heartbreak, despair, passion and love in that movie. I remember a tagline from the movie "Virgin Suicides" it was 'Just Like Life'. I think that Before We Go is just like life too.

I loved it and I believe you all will feel the same after seeing the movie.That was one refreshing performance by both the leads. Both the characters were so perfect and the actors delivered perfection. You will not get bored throughout the movie although the movie revolves around two main characters.That was unexpected and an out of the box performance for me. The dialoges are so perfectly timed.The music too complements the movie. A simple storyline but definitely not the performance. Let me put it like this,"charming and refreshing".The movie kind of gets on you as it goes. Before I go,let me tell, you'll love it.

Its a beautifully written one night love story between Nick and Brooke who met and spend the night together trying to figure out what the next step in the night (and in life) should be. It's wonderfully done, with Chris Evans directing himself and Alice Eve. The chemistry between them is wonderfully sweet and gentle, as if watching two best friends finding out about each other.

The music is soft and complemented the film beautifully. The night lights of New York adds the romantic mood. The story itself is revealed layer by layer. I thought I'd be watching something predictable but it isn't.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. Lovely film.

I'm going to make it short. I'd rather not go into elaborate analyses and proper assessment the more so because I don't want to sound pretentious. Let me just say, that I thoroughly enjoyed the film. It is funny, thoughtful (but not overdramatised), clever and sensitive at the same time. Finally a film where love, a man and a woman and the relationship between them is treated with respect, gentleness and is elevating, and refreshing. The script is great, the acting is superb, the dialogues, those subtle gestures, looks, smiles are all in place. Nothing overdone just treated with natural care. What little glitches there are in this movie simply add to its charm. Watching this film is a great experience, it's great entertainment. I warmly recommend watching it.
