Indeed, I would rather say this movie is somewhat cliché and the lines are quite cheesy at some point. But I like the atmosphere this movie have brought along.
Brian (Anton Yelchin) played a young writer who was trying to have a published story. One day, he met Arielle (Bérénice Marlohe), a married French women, and their love story begins.
Regardless of the light tone, the story seems to happen faster than audiences' expectation, thus, it left behind some hole in the plot and especially characters development. However, I enjoyed the atmosphere, the conversation and somewhat is the performance of both main actor and actress.
Anton have shown a good expression of awkwardness, of brokenhearted to the character throughout the movie. Marlohe, on the other hand, was indeed a married women with experiences but still showed the fondness in love.
Overall, if you are seeking for a story with layer or perfect performance from actor, then I think you are seeing it in the wrong way. Romance movie is meant to watch with feeling, and I think this movie have brought along the feeling that we all need.
