This Time (2016)

The Storyline is 8

In my opinion the story line isn't that unique. Childhood best friends become sweethearts is a very common story line but there were aspects of the story that made it unique. There's one scene where main FL makes a wish whenever she guesses the correct ice cream flavor when she buys from the store across the street. It's a very cute detail to add and I really liked it but since it is the classic childhood best friends to sweetheart or lovers it didn't get a 9.

The acting/cast is 7.5
The two lead James and Nadine have great chemistry and are also great actors but most of the times its like their roles are somewhat the same in most movies and the way they act is just the same as their other movie/drama characters. I just wish whenever they would take a role there would be a difference and I won't remember any of the other characters they portrayed in another movie/drama.

The music is 8
Their main song has been stuck in my head ever since I finished the movie and I loved it and always kept listening to it. Though it was just one song that got me interested maybe they should've added like 3 or more songs. If they did then I definitely didn't remember so that means it wasn't that good.

The rewatch value is 7.5
After a few months I still watched it and enjoyed it but after that I didn't watch it anymore and I was kinda uninterested in it.

Overall I give it a 7.5, the story line is pretty good but there could be improvements and same with acting. Music is fine and I would rewatch like 4 times but after that not anymore.
