good grief this movie was awful


Seriously...everyone involved in the production of this movie should be tried for crimes against nature. It's THAT bad.

Interesting concept. Very poorly executed.

Beautiful concept, beautifully executed and well acted. Brilliant film.

I’m with you on that. Surprisingly good.

I agree.

In the beginning the girls acting was atrocious and so bad that I couldn't help notice and it clouded my view of this film immediately. I thought it was some cheap low budget film with bad actors.

I then realised the other actors were better but the story was so slow and uninteresting until the part where the young girl claimed the boy made her love him with words and I thought that finally, it's interesting! Sadly, shortly later it became mundane and boring again.

I found it quite slow and it did not grip me at all. I understood that it was trying to deal with interesting subjects but the were poorly executed and I really wanted to turn it off midway. The only thing that saved me watching till the end was that I was messing around with my phone until it finished.

I am usually one for thinking films but this just made me want to not think and turn it off!

To me the little girl's acting was the best part.
She was playing the role o a girl without emotions faking them to the world. Just the apple scene was enough to say: "Holly *beep* something is screwed on that girl!"

Actually, I'm quite sure that nature loves this film.
