The Greatest Hits 2024

Slow burner. I wasn't immediately into it but the cast is remarkably charming and it grew on me as minutes passed.

Lucy Boynton carries it brilliantly and I found nice how they made Max and David have sort of a similar vibe but very different personalities. I don't know, I could buy the fact that they both matched with Harriet, same way I could see why a close friend gets attracted by two different people. Usually in movies I feel like the romantic interest (if there are multiple) are either the exact same dude/gal with a different name, or they are complete opposites where you have to suspend hard your disbelief to imagine that the same person would fall for them both.
Here they vibe with Harriet well, but on a completely different tune.
I had never thought about this before for a movie, but it was an interesting discovery and nicely portrayed.

ps Lucy Boynton does a very good "restrained smile". Like when you want to smile but you've been hurt or something and are scared to try and be happy. Very similar tho not as good as Emma Mackey's

Really enjoyed this... a little bit different take on the time-travel theme. The music was terrific.

A pretty bad romance movie that uses sci-fi to tell it's bad romance story. Nothing new, definitely nothing great, nothing special at all. Even calling it sci-fi is a slap in the face to actual sci-fi movies. Waste of time.

I’m usually down for a nice slice of sad romantic cheese with a science-fi bend but this one isn’t it. The cast is fine and the idea is fine but once we got to the concert meet cute I knew we were in trouble.

The greatest hits with no great hits. The meaning and morals had no impact on me, and neither did the acting or dialogue. I expected romance, but the whole thing revolved around how to move on, which doesn't feel right. This had huge potential of having a great soundtrack, a great story, and some great performances, but it barely hit any. I couldn't get over the 'rich girl' issues either. It was presented in such a bland manner that the hook of the movie felt funny. I'm mostly disappointed by the fact it displays itself as a music lover movie but barely has any variety of music.

Wonderful music. Good photography. Cute romcom. Could have done much more with the scifi premise though. Good to see an Asian lead.

The trailer was a better movie than the movie itself. So much wasted potential.

Movie about self-sacrifice and how it's important sometimes. Great soundtrack, perfect light and pure 90 mins of drama with colorful picture

I loved this movie far more than I probably should have. In the movie, the lead is triggered when she hears a song that she first heard with her boyfriend years ago. While watching this movie, I was very much reminded of other movies (High Fidelity, L.A. Story, What Dreams May Come, Safety Not Guaranteed, and probably more). But I don't think that this movie was derivative of any of those movies. Despite the fact that the film travelled down familiar paths, it still felt like an authentic journey. I felt a personal connection to the lead and became emotionally invested in her story. I am sure that others watched this film and did not have the same experience, but for some reason it really got to me.
