Lovely Runner: Almost there to the finish line

The cast of Lovely Runner shines brightly. The main leads deliver strong performances, and the seasoned actors hold their own, creating engaging dynamics. The supporting cast does a good job of...well, supporting the leads. However, the show stumbles in its writing.

Clichéd Cupid: The romance between the leads, while well-acted, drowns in a sea of overused tropes. What starts as cute quickly becomes repetitive, leaving viewers yearning for something more original.

Time Travel Troubles: The central plot device, the time-slip, is a missed opportunity. The show fails to explain its core mechanic, leaving a gaping hole in the narrative logic. This lack of explanation is frustrating, hindering the audience's ability to fully invest in the story.

Conveniently Ever After: The ending feels rushed and predictable, opting for a simple "happily ever after" conclusion that ignores the complexities established throughout the show. It leaves viewers wanting more depth and a more satisfying resolution... and explanation.

Overall: While the cast is commendable, Lovely Runner banked more on the cutesy romantic feels and that's it. Clichéd romance, unexplained plot points, and a predictable ending prevent the show from reaching its full potential.

Every Day Should Be Beautiful

Reading the plot somehow threatened me already, that looming tragedy. But...

..the film's revelations were refreshingly honest. The main characters, the parents, navigated this ordeal with quiet strength, with a little dash of dark humor, prioritizing normalcy for their children. This molded a powerful narrative where emotional impact unfolded naturally, punctuated by well-placed musical moments that didn't detract from the impact but rather provided a space to breathe before the next wave of feels.

Each revelation were refreshingly simple and honest, too, which greatly heightened every moment allowing viewers to look inward and say, "yes, that happened to me, as well."

If you're looking for a film that will stay with you long after the credits roll, and one that relies on genuine emotion rather than cheap tricks, then this is a must-watch.
