What did I just watch? It was worse than a B movie. It looked like something a school class would throw together. How this is possible when Culpa Mia was so good is beyond me. It almost seems like a purposeful destruction of a story. Culpa Mia was young adult, a bit tacky and fast paced but the soundtrack, the acting and the way it was cut was incredible. What in the world happened here? Same actors and director. Looks like they had a week to shoot it and a couple of amateurs just threw it together. And why would you score it with a weird mix of classic music all the way through. Unfortunately I could go on and on...
I hope the creators will explain what happened. Did the funding get pulled? Or was there just no more story to tell?
The books are really bad so I'm actually impressed the first movie in the trilogy was so good. But boy oh boy they should have stopped after the first movie. This movie was almost impossible to get through. Now I understand the painful expressions on the two main characters in the few promo interviews they've given prior to the release. This is the type of movie that can ruin your career. Jesus, the story was so bad. They should have rewritten the manuscript and moved away from the books if they wanted to do a sequel.
Nothing good to say. Not one good scene in all the movie.

Heart wrenching. Not what I expected. I absolutely loved it. The acting and the style was maybe lacking a bit in the first episodes, but oh my God. OMG. It became more and more real life with each episode. It kinda eased its way from cheesy love story to real life and real problems.
I loved all the Italian that was spoken. And the complex family dynamics.
Honestly I watched it in one sitting. All eight episodes until 5 in the morning. I couldn't stop.
I have no personal history with the specific themes displayed but it managed to open me up to some deep layers of sorrow stored deep down. It was almost cathartic for me to watch. I cried my eyes out. Both personal tears and tears for the story. For me it had the right mix of sweet love and real life.
Only complaint is how dark the story actually was. My positive and romantic heart hoped for a more Disney-like ending.

Despite being more than twice her age I recognised my self in Carrie. Loved the development of her character. Especially how she softened, opened up and started engaging.
I cried and I smiled. Just what I needed on an off day. There is hope if we dare soften up and engage in life. Not that easy. I think the movie catches this in a nice and positive way and leaves you hopeful.
