When the Starlight Ends

I've heard a director once saying: "Directors have a huge responsibility, they can make or break a performance." Movie editors too, and I strongly believe the whole crew is very important.

Here, at some point, everyone failed, and it was a pain to watch.

Sam Heughan did a great job as this character. The criticism that his American accent needs work is unwarranted. People come to America from everywhere in the world - the faint trace of an accent from another place suits the author character perfectly. It was a refreshingly offbeat movie. Just a bit difficult to sort out the story, which is a shame because that caused the movie to just miss being an excellent one. Still, it is entertaining and interesting and certainly good enough to watch more than once. Enjoy.

In most movies (all movies) editing can make or break a movie. This is the case with When the Starlight Ends, it broke it. It was confusing and choppy. I am only giving this movie 3 ( and I am being generous) stars because I liked Arabella Oz and Sam Heughan. Although they had zero chemistry I did like the funny moments they shared. I would have liked to see how it was originally intended to be seen. The talent of Sam Heughan was a total waste of his talent. They also should have let him keep his accent. I don't normally give negative reviews or reviews at all. If you see this movie just enjoy Sam.

Sorry, Sam. Strange script. Confusing editing. I can believe Sam Heughan as pretty much anything except awkward and lacking confidence. I basically felt uncomfortable the whole time I was watching it.

Sam was the only good thing about this movie and it wasn't even because of his acting. Honestly, as good of actor as he is he was NOT in this film. It was awkward and weird and not in a good way.

Sam himself says he's horrible at accents... yeah his slipped a bit quite often throughout the movie.
