1 year agoI enjoyed this movie, but was it trying to be a Sci fi flick, a dramatic comedy, or a rom com, or a political commentary on environmentalism, or a political commentary on colonialism… It could have been really amazing if it chose any of those options but instead it was pretty messy, sadly.
Amazing no one has mentioned Bridge to Terabithia (2007). The screenwriters disavowed the trailers, iirc. Looks like a cute kids fantasy movie, starts out leaning that way with a middle-school Manic Pixie Dream Girl, then turns hard into being completely real life and extremely tragic. 14-year old me was not prepared.
