Chemical Hearts

POSITIVES…

  • This story is made for hopeless romantics and especially those who are experiencing young love as a teenager.

  • Speaking of whom, teenagers all over will appreciate one of the central themes of this movie.

  • In fact, I really loved one particular monologue Lili Reinhart makes in the library on that topic.

  • There are many scenes of dialogue that are scattered throughout the story that are pretty good to listen to, and I especially enjoyed the ones that explains emotions in a scientific fashion.

  • Austin Abrams and Lili Reinhart are good in their roles, and carried the whole movie very well.

  • Appreciated the attempt at portraying teenagers and young love in a more realistic view.

  • Excellent soundtrack.

NEGATIVES…

  • Kinda melodramatic and pretentious at times.

  • While it tries to do the young romance genre a little differently, the plot still falls back to some familiar cliches and conveniences when I wished it wouldn’t.

  • I’m going to say that it isn’t because of some preconceived biases, but I really couldn’t see Austin Abrams and Lili Reinhart as a couple at all.

P.S….
