My Comment:
Finally! Found a good movie to watch. This movie was simple, yet funny and inspiring. All of the actors played their roles remarkably. I can see the love sparkles between the actors and the script was lovable and not exaggerated. Ryan Gosling was totally hot, Emma Stone was incredibly beautiful. This movie makes me want to love someone... Cause true love exists.

My Comment:
The story was unique and somehow educational. Even though it's good, it was like watching an extended study movie at school which was enough to get me to sleep. The most important thing is that Mark Ruffalo still has that charm on me despite his age. Overall, all the casts played good.

My Comment:
It was the first time for me not to get bored watching English movie. It was exciting for me to watch this movie, how it would end. Colin Firth did a good job in this movie. However, I must say that i don't really like this movie (so typical for English movie), maybe it was too dreadful. I think the word "dreadful" is what the director wants, and he delivered it well, but I don't really like the dreadful thing
