I WATCHED THIS MOVIE FOR MY 2025 MOVIE CHALLENGE.
WEEK 14: A FILM WITH JENNIFER LAWRENCE
Review: We meet Anna and Jacob when there are in college. The fall in love and
spend every waking hour with each other. When Anna’s visa expires, she is
forced to go back to England, leaving Jacob behind in the US. They try to make
it work long distance, but both of them soon realize that it might be better to
see other people. How strong is their love for each other really?
It's a beautiful story, on
paper. But I didn’t really enjoy this film. I never really believed Anna and Jacob;
Felicity Jones and Anton Yelchin were missing the chemistry. And I felt like,
especially Jacob, was happier in the other relationship.
Jones and Yelchin were good
in their roles. And Jennifer Lawrence didn’t really have a lot to do in her
role as the other woman. But then again, together Jones and Yelchin never managed
to convinced me.
It’s not even an
hour-and-a-half long, but it felt much longer. And that is never a good sign. I
did not hate “Like Crazy”, but I didn’t particularly enjoyed it either.
Rating: 2,5/ 5
