Chemical Hearts

The movie is supposed to be about two seniors in HS. Despite this, the main female character (Grace) looks like she's in her mid 20s and the main male character (Henry) looks like he's about 16. The entire movie was uncomfortable, awkward, and unbelievable making it a very hard watch. Anyone who isn't a teen (or older but very immature for their age), will wish they hadn't wasted their time on this one.

Betty dumpes Jughead, hookes up with Archie who than has a car accident and dies - this is your prequel to this movie. Then she only has to change schools and BAM! there you have a whole season of Chemical Hearts ;-) Of course, the Riverdale writers would have to change the plot (less Twin Peaks more The Perks of Being a Wallflower) but they change it every season anyhow, so... there you go. What I wanted so say is that although it is an alternative coming of age movie, this kind of "alternative" has been done before and does not feel new. The story is new, the Grace character is somewhat new, but the overall look & feel is not and that is why I am honestly disappointed with this movie.

Chemical Hearts is definitely not your average teenage romance. It definitely is unique in terms of the story line and the strange characterisation, but I felt they took this uniqueness too far. It felt far fetched and bordered on plain bizarre. It's boring, I was continuously jumping ahead and it overall made zero sense to me. But Lili and Austin have acted brilliantly, so watch it for that!

Easily can be way better, first half is so good fir me you can say its no typical romance, alot of good conversation, good and clear develop for the characters. The problem in my opinion is the whole second half, so weird decision from the director an the writer. I would love if the second half take the path of first one instead of psychological and traditional choice. And the ending of movie a little pit dumb and unnecessary. At all good movie I didn't regret to watch it but really can be way better.
