Endless Love: Review

I saw this movie for the first and only time on the Tuesday just gone, and I really enjoyed it. I thought it was really sweet, but not quite sure why anyone would cry whilst watching it though. 

It was based on the 1979 novel, but not exactly the same. This was better! 

The acting was sensational. The casting was just phenomenal. Bruce was the best actor though. Bruce Greenwood playing Jade's father was absolutely amazing, and really gave the film some character. I think it'd work just as well if he had died in the fire though, but I think the fact that he survived made him think about how horrible he had been to Jade and David.

It is clear from the very start that Hugh doesn't like David, but when David drives Jade off in Hugh's car, he gets very annoyed.

David tries to make a good impression on Hugh throughout the whole movie, but it isn't until the last 10 minutes of the film where Hugh actually realises that he can't stop his daughter from seeing him, and he sees sense. I just don't understand how Hugh could have got that letter from the court, even though Jade is officially an adult.

Also, when Hugh takes his family on the trip, and David shows up, Hugh states that it's a family trip. It's for the family only, but Jade's brother brought his girlfriend along with him?

So overall, I think this movie deserves a brilliant 9.8/10, because of beautiful acting, sensational directing and phenomenally writing. It is just slightly let down because of some minor bad thought shown in the middle of the movie.

I am unsure what my next review will be, but if anyone wants me to review anything in particular, you can add a comment down below.
