Ok, I've watched three movies in three days now and I'm starting to get frustrated because I didn't like any of them! Althuogh this is the only one I could properly talk about so... Here it is!
I was searching for new movies to watch and came across a movie that was called One Day. I saw that Anne Hathaway was going to be in it so I got hyped. So I read a little on what it was about got about... "Two people met at 15th July 1988 and decided to go on a date but stayed friends..." after that I stopped reading and watched it instead.... I wish I had read further because I have no idea what this movie was about.
I can't even summon the movie since I don't quite understand it. At first I thought it was going to be: we follow their development through every year on the same day... Well, yeah, just not every year.... OK, so the movie want to show how much everything changes in a couple of years? ... Well, sort of, it's more the cultural that changes than the people. Do we at least get development in their relationship? ... Well, no not at all.
So I'm really confused on what this movie wanted to do with this story. If you want a better summary on the story you can search more on google. I'm confused and I'm gonna tell you why.
The edeting in this movie helped with that confusion. In the beginning it felt like they didn't really cared on what was going on a year after they showed us a clip of their life. So we were given one clip and then when it's not really ended they cut to another year.... It was just one scene that wasn't even finished! But hey, that's not important! It's just filler because we need to get it into a 2 hour long movie! ... There was even a scene in like 5 seconds that represented one year and you only saw Anne Hathaway swimming.... "This has been another: pointless moment." So yeah, the editing was really distracting.
I said that the character didn't develope either. That's because they don't really have a personality. They have actions, but they lack motivation for their actions, or emotions all together. They show anger and sadness but when the movie tries to show when a character is in love.... They smile right? They kiss each other? Yeah! There's nothing more than that! They smile so smile a lot and act in love! ... Yeah... continue to think that and you'll be spinning on a pink cloud round and round in a circle too.
So the things I didn't like was the story, the characters and the editing... Is there something I liked? No! I couldn't even appritiate the acting because the characters weren't given any personalities! It was just what the movie wanted them to act and followed that... Motivation? Know what that is? You don't need to spell it right just understanding the word is enough. I got so bored with this movie that in the last hour I checked how much time it was left every ten minute! It was really boring and it felt like the movie was done two hours ago! So it felt really long, it was boring and I don't understand it. I don't know if it was written as a book before the movie but as a movie... It doesn't work.
So I don't recomend this movie... It wants to show something but it doesn't work at all. Hope the fourth movie I see I'll like.
