Review:

The only reason I watched this movie was the actors. Daisy Ridley and Tom Holland are some of my favorite movie artist these days and I knew no matter what, they would portray this amazing story well... Even if the screenplay didn't serve them well.

I loved the book this movie is based on. The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness is groundbreaking and unique. A wonderful story that weaves scifi into a more dystopian feel. The movie on the other hand, was a more old-fashioned feel with a strange mind projecting aspect that was actually kind of annoying. I guess it was annoying in the book to, but it didn't feel so daunting.

I'm glad I watched the movie as it was a fun adventure.
