Review: One Day

Saw this movie before it's getting down in all Cinemas soon.

Based on an original Bestselling Novel of its similar title,written by David Nicholls.



The story
After one day together - July 15th, 1988, their college graduation - Emma Morley (Anne Hathaway) and Dexter Mayhew (Jim Sturgess) begin a friendship that will last a lifetime. She is a working-class girl of principle and ambition who dreams of making the world a better place. He is a wealthy charmer who dreams that the world will be his playground. For the next two decades, key moments of their relationship are experienced over several July 15ths in their lives. Together and apart, we see Dex and Em through their friendship and fights, hopes and missed opportunities, laughter and tears. Somewhere along their journey, these two people realize that what they are searching and hoping for has been there for them all along. As the true meaning of that one day back in 1988 is revealed, they come to terms with the nature of love and life itself.


My Take: I enjoyed the films in terms of their colour correction( since I am actually something related to this...)
But I admit that the story tempo is slow paced and I went off track for a couple of time.
Some interesting incidents over the two decades, all presented as part of the milestones.
But still I enjoy the use of edits and transitions besides using colour correction to depict the story.
But perhaps the story plot is something that I will not consider working on.


Rating:2.5/5
"ONE DAY" is rated NC16,and it's about to brought off-screen soon.Do catch it before it's gone.
