Film Freak 2014 - If I Stay
It's time for another "Fault of all Stars" teenage girl film for all the young girls get together to go see in the masses. Get their tissues together and discover the wonderful Smashing Pumpkins back catalogue. And maybe even get a wee bit moist over Jamie Blackley.
But how does this novel turned big screen flick work out?
Chloe Grace Moretz is fabulous as Mia the young lady in this "leave your brain at the door and stuff yourself full of popcorn type film". Nothing is wrong with this film, they use music quite a lot to create mood and show off the talents of the two young lovers.
I enjoyed the film (a little drawn out in parts) and went along with it all but like the teenage hookers in front of me the end ing was a little abrupt. It was just like BANG, roll credits.
Oh well it was a little lengthy and you did get an end result however I would have liked a little more closure. But hey this is set out for teenagers who if they go 15 minutes without sending a seflie, checking what boring shit their friends (or FB friends) are up to or sending a nude pic up to the cloud it is a real miracle.
This is one for the under 25's though, older folk may really get bored with it. However I throughly enjoyed it and totally enjoyed some Saturday escapism. 3.75 Stars.
