Good concept, poorly executed.

Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

This original premise is executed funnily and poetically, with witty dialogue that carries no shame in getting hilariously awkward. Cinematography does however clip this movies wings, dulling things constantly. A completely static shot with barely any camera playing. I appreciate it symbolises the relationship and is paired with the benches. But it does get boring and repetitive fast, ignoring potential opportunities and at some times obliterating emotional peaks. Characters and script, do however standout enough for me ro keep this movie alive, being both passionate and beloving. With believable performances on both counter parts. 7/10

It'd be a great movie if it's done by a rich kid from a film school with lots of money to hire these actors. A great example to show that putting nice faces and landscapes together won't make a good movie. The lines are too predictable, and the visual is just mediocre (tell me it's all shot with an iPhone). I asked why it's such a self indulging masturbation. And the answer is here (on iMDb). Directed by the writer. Too much ego. No one probably wanted to direct it or be kind to let him know it's a total crap.

In a perfect mix of French "amour" and American fast-track filming, enter 5 to 7, a good old love story that actually focus on love rather than crazy, life-changing situations. You will laugh, but not feel like you are in a cheap comedy. You will smile, but only because you feel the characters happiness. You will sometimes feel stunned, sad, and a slight discomfort, and all of that is just going to make you want to see more and more.At some point, you might be inclined to try and guess what is going to happen, but whether you see things coming or not, you will be too busy enjoying this amazing, feeling-packed movie, like nothing you have seen, at least not in the past ten years. The cast choice is just great, the script is simple, yet powerful and modern. You may just learn a thing or two about either culture, but mostly, you will feel all kinds of stuff. Maybe I'm just a sucker for a good romance; maybe I got a bit weary of today's blockbusters; but I can tell you that I started watching this unintentionally on the TV, and I immediately knew it was going to be a great and powerful movie, with a strong message... and Arielle will make sure you know she has great teeth!

I had no idea what a great movie this would be. Or how good Anton Yelchin actually (already) was, as an actor. This is the best romantic movie that I've seen for several years, with incredible dialogues. It is so rich, in so many ways, combining wisdom, life experience and humor. Nothing but love for this one.
