Loved the trailer stayed for McKenna Grace & Mason Thames… let’s discuss!
Won’t get into spoilers, as I didn’t know this occurred after watching the trailer (Unless I missed it). Quick “Review” – As mentioned above. Love those above for playing characters Clara Grant & Miller Adams. Their relationship was beautiful and so sweet. Honestly got my rating from a 6.5 to a 7/10.
Longer “Review’ – Morgan Grant (Played by Allison Williams) with her partner Chris Grant (Played by Scott Eastwood) find themselves expecting a little one. Forward 17 years, we have Clara. Sister to Morgan is Jenny (Played by Willa Fitzgerald), who has a child with Jonah Sullivan (Played by Dave Franco) which have an interesting relationship that we get to peel back throughout the movie.
I’m not sure if it’s the writing of the novel or the movie for Dave Franco’s character, but he was in and out of his scenes so fast I wasn’t able to really connect/learn about his character until much, much later on. This made the movie feel long, but totally saved by the younger couple. I did enjoy Allison Williams playing the mother and totally got behind her feelings & emotions throughout this feature.
It’s a touching watch worth checking out. As mentioned at the top. It’s mostly a fine movie with lots of good scenes/moments. If you’re connected, you’ll be in the 7’s. Otherwise, probably in the 6’s. I have no idea what the critics were smoking when scoring it in the 30%’s over on RT.
Did you read the book or check out the feature? Love to hear your thoughts in the comments below. With that, let’s head to our 3rd title of the batch – Shelby Oaks.
