I saw what they were trying to do, but this movie turned out to be a hot mess. The only redeeming value was in Nicholas Galitzine, who was his usual charismatic self. And let's face it, I would happily watch him read the phone book. Actually, maybe the phone book would have been more interesting than this movie. To be honest, after a while I fast-forwarded through most of the scenes and only watched the ones he was in. The mice were pretty amusing, too. I suggest only watching this movie if you get it free through Amazon Prime. And even then, be prepared to self-rescue. You really don't want to lose 2 hours of your life this way.

After Everything
(2023)
I so wanted to score this movie a 10 ...
14 September 2023
Warning: Spoilers
... but the glaring absence of Tessa made that impossible. The first 2/3 of the movie dragged as we spent too much time watching Hardin work through his self-loathing and writer's block. There were extraneous characters that I didn't want to waste my time on. In the last 1/3, my hopes soared as I expected more scenes with both leads. Instead, Tessa was only in the movie for about 15 minutes and then it ended quite suddenly with a cheesy future domestic scene. This movie would have been so much better if Tessa and Hardin had more screen time together, as their chemistry is what made this movie series so captivating from the start. Color me disappointed that this movie didn't live up to all it could have been.
