Review of Everything, Everything

"Everything everything" is probably one of the cheesiest movie I've ever seen. Let me explain. I get it, it's a teenager movie. Nothing wrong with that, except for me it doesn't send the right message. It's simply a polished version of reality. Sure I'll grant that there's been a little bit of thought put into the plot (arguable) but the dialogues, the characters, the music ... no depth. I'm usually not that harsh on movies but this one I have to say is just a scam. The whole purpose of a romantic drama is to make the audience feel something. The non existent depth I was talking about earlier is therefore essential to that type of movie. "Everything everything" could be compared to an unfinished canvas, we've got the main colors, we've got the shapes, we've got a few brushstrokes but a lot of elements are missing. I work on the assumption that what makes a good movie is the unpredictable, that small instant when you say to yourself "didn't see that coming !". Well, I'm sorry to say that that movie is quite the opposite of a good movie. No suspense whatsoever. Everything is predictable. Everything.
