Review of One Day (2011) by Hfahmy — 13 Oct 2011
In 1988 Emma played by Anne Hathaway and Dexter played by Jim Sturgess meet in her apartment to celebrate their graduation, they don't make love but decide to have their friendship kept. Till 2006 they try to make a life socially and professionally.
He fails at both levels, he loses his job and get divorced after having a baby girl. On the other track Emma works in a restaurant and later becomes a writer, socially she never finds real love. Both are in contact, even when apart for 16 years, till 2004 where they come to live together again.
She cannot have a baby from him and is killed in 2006 when run over by a bus while riding her bike. The script is boring, the audience has to count the years one by one from 1988 to 2006. No real events or attraction for most of the 108 min, the years count may be faster, even the death of Emma is not justified unless it is meant as a shock to wake everybody up.
Globally bad and disappointing movie.
