Review of Me Before You (2016) by Erin C — 19 Jan 2017

I find this movie disturbingly bad after seeing that it has some positive reviews. I kind of liked Emilia Clark before watching this movie, I still might like her a bit but her acting in this movie is ugly.

You can only compare it to that of Jenna Coleman (who ruins Doctor Who) but multiply it 3 times. It is non-stop grimacing and twisting. There is no single honest natural face expression, you keep asking yourself who is that person, is that a children theatre, there got to be some improvement as the movie progressess right? Nope, this is the way it is.

Compare it to Sam Claflin, he is OK except that movie's script writing is dumb. I guess it is supposed to be a naive feel good movie with a plain good soul plot and main character and some people buy that.

But I find Clark's impersonation too irritating to bear and the episodes they are not naive, what is that?! He offers her to watch French movie with subtitles that she obviously never did before. Little would you know but she gets completely absorbed by this movie and when he asked if she liked it her response is - I LOVED IT! Many smiles, they are both so happy.

Or she said she used to have nice striped leggings when she was a child which she cannot find nowhere for an adult person. Guess what was a gift of Clafin on her birthday? Her reaction? You guess right.

This movie is just a set of cliche In the most tasteless form possible. I hope I can get over this abuse after submission of this review.
