Visually I can't complain, but the story presented here, adapted from a YA book by the same writer, leaves a lot to be desired.
Mostly because of the lack of genuine feeling for a subject that mixes youth and grief after a family death, and those emotions need to be portrayed on screen in a natural way, not as mechanic or constructed as polished as what is seen here.

As I mentioned, there are a lot of visual sequences that look amazing, but that's just part of the presentation, clearly no small detail, but I find it really disappointing that its story doesn't live up even a little bit to what its director is proposing visually.

I liked some aspects of this film but for the most part, I didn't feel too emotionally invested in the characters, it has to be said. I like the music playing during the film and the fact its quite imaginative - it has a daydreamy feel to it,I liked some aspects of this film but for the most part, I didn't feel too emotionally invested in the characters, it has to be said. I like the music playing during the film and the fact its quite imaginative - it has a daydreamy feel to it, a bit like The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. However, I just didn't feel at all connected to the overall story arc, unfortunately. Its a fairly easily forgettable film but its not entirely bad either. It's very much a film focussing on a teenage girls emotions - heartbreak etc., so it'll either appeal or not. Its not really for me but I imagine there's an audience for it who would enjoy it well enough. I wouldn't particularly recommend it, no. Expand

This movie would be better if the main character wasn't a toxic stalker and there was less time spent on surreal imagery that barely applies and more time on actual character development.

The sky is everywhere

The cinematography is aesthetically pleasing and well-done, from the camera twirls and zooms to the redwood trees that envelop most of the locations. Bereavement, coming to terms with loss and teenage angst as its central themes keep it emotionally charged, and are well portrayed by the protagonist (Grace Kaufman). Even though the plot may feel muddled sometimes, and the progression may seem stunted, it is a very enjoyable movie with important lessons to be learnt.

I'm sorry but the main love interests voice was in such stark contrast to his appearance I was thrown off and could focus on nothing else. Seemed like a decent film.
