TRAVEL TO MOVIES: AFTER WE COLLIDED

Director: Roger Kumble
Cast: Josephine Langford , Hero Fiennes Tiffin , Dylan Sprouse , Rob Estes , Candice King , Shane Paul McGhie , Pia Mia , Selma Blair , Charlie Weber , Samuel Larsen , Louise Lombard
Plot: Tessa finds herself struggling with her complicated relationship with Hardin; she faces a dilemma that could change their lives forever. Tessa has everything to lose. Hardin has nothing to lose except her. After We Collided life will never be the same. After a tumultuous beginning relationship, Tessa and Hardin were on the path to making things work. Tessa knew Hardin could be cruel, but when revelation is dropped about the origins of their relationship and Hardin's mysterious past Tessa is beside herself.


My Movie Review: The movie is like a ferris wheel rather than a roller coaster there’s a lot of ups and downs not as intense as the first one this time its calmer than expected we want more! After We Collided has more layers and elements but the first one felt more solid and just simply intense one of best quote is ‘just because he doesn’t love you the way you want him to doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you with everything he has’ as for drug material there's drinking in the movie but no heavy drug use there is also swearing kids in the modern day world are exposed! It gets a bit hot and steamy in some scenes but not memorable there is some partying as well yet what I'm remembering is the angst and pain of the first when its raining and Tessa went to the bar at night where Hardin and his friends hangout and the girl she's got jealous with this second doesn't have those moments there's barely any levity or fun to be had here and it's difficult to be invested in a film that relentlessly attempts to glamourize an abusive relationship!!

Critic Reviews: After We Collided is riddled with clichés and tired young adult tropes, but its dramatic romance and laughable dialogue offers some escapist fun. American "Afternators" will no doubt be similarly pleased with this slightly campier continuation of the series. For everyone else, there's not enough innovation to make the second installment a worthwhile jumping-on point. Fifty Shades Light but if you're a fan of the books I'm sure you're going to love it. Director Roger Kumble brings this second installment of Anna Todd's series to life in a way fans of the books have been dreaming about for years. Only meant for its young targeted audience that has the stomach for such tripe. After We Collided doesn't earn a place in the so-bad-it's-good category it aspires. A series of half-digested movie tropes regurgitated by Google Rom-dram. "After" was merely awful. "After We Collided" is atrocious. Worse than the first? A little bit. Too moronic to work as a serious romantic drama and too boring to work as straightforward sleaze!
