About
You may like this if you want a reflective drama about mental health, mortality, and second chances with an uplifting streak; Not for you if you need realism, fast pacing, or dislike melodrama like in Seeking a Friend for the End of the World.
Pros: moving and inspiring tone; strong lead performance; thought-provoking themes | Cons: uneven pacing; implausible plot details; turns overly romantic
