Review
Much better than I had anticipated. I thought it was going to be boring at first but near the end I was sobbing. This movie is definitely not for the emotional or sensitive people, just a fair warning. But it is incredibly good, especially from such young actors. Unexpected plot twists, suspense, and intense feelings. Recommended for the hopeless romantics and lovesick people. Best, most touching movie of the century.
