Review of The Sun Is Also a Star (2019) by The3Academysins — 04 Jan 2020
I have a lot of mixed feelings about The Sun Is Also A Star. There were parts of this movie that I thought were truly romantic and beautiful, and really well developed. On the other hand, there are parts of this movie that I found to be utterly insufferable.
For the most part, the performances are okay, if a little corny. This film kind of feels like a young adult's concept of love, which would be brilliant if it didn't rely so heavily on these pithy intellectual explanations and serendipity taking us along for the ride.
The conflict is good, ideas are good, and I could even see a film discussing the connection between scientific reason and fate. It's just a little underdeveloped here. At the end of the day, this movie is a standard romance, and nothing more.
