About this movie

When the eccentric girl next door runs away just before graduation, her lovesick neighbor sets out to find her. Toward that end, he tries to learn as much about her as possible, but in reality he learns a great deal more about himself than the mercurial object of his unrequited affection.

But this movie made me want to get shwiffty on my tablet. Idk why ,im being honesty. Its almost insulting because its as if mature writers tried to write as if they were 2 generations they're junior , so it came across insincere and inauthentic. There's zero emotional involvement and I'm an emotional guy. It just is a big miss. :/

I give this movie a 3.5/5 for a few reasons 1. The plot is very good, but by the end of the movie you forget what it's actually about. 2. With that said, the plot and story telling in between is good enough to get a good rating. 3. The only thing that I LOVE about this movie is that I can watch it over and over again, and like it just as much as the time before (which isn't saying that much anyway) If you take anybody's advice on this movie on here, it should be mine. I have had to watch this movie 10 times in the last week (due to no TV, and this being the only thing on my tablet.)

A completely flat, paper movie. At best a bunch of cliches strung together without meaning or purpose. At worst, a complete waste of time. Of course, the book is almost always better than the movie so I went in with low expectations. Still, I was sorely disappointed. In this case, the movie not only missed the depth and detail of the book (which is common and expected), but also any redeeming elements of the characters or story.
