Review of If I Stay (2014) by Matty M — 19 Aug 2015

If I Stay (2014) was a fairly good movie. For the most part the film was nicely done, but on many items it fell short of coming through. If I Stay the movie didn't come close to the book at all, it delivered the story but didn't quite nail the feeling. A few things in "If I Stay" that caught my attention a lot of the time was simple mistakes in film and a good bit of not so good acting. Let's take the movie (1990's) Ghost movie as an example, ghost could walk through walls and and you don't see their reflection on everyone including mirrors. Now don't get me wrong "If I Stay" was an enjoyable movie for what it was, I just believe it could've been better.

The acting in this movie was very sub-par, Chloë Grace Moretz and her boyfriend in this film didn't seem to fit the role. Chloë Grace Moretz is a fairly good actress and she done well in films like Kick-Ass; yet I don't think she did as well in this film. I did like the film for what it was and I'll probably watch it again as it is a fairly good drama.
