Expected more

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

If they had stuck to the script it would have been better. Great performances by all involved, especially the lead .. she will go places. Unfortunately, the screenwriter decided half the characters have to be attracted to their own gender or transgender and the whole thing goes off the rails there. Movies made for the two-percent will lose money every time. Too bad as it was a good effort except that mess.

What we have here is a solid story that is different than anything out there (at least slightly) but the movie just fails to represent the story. The film is very slow and predictable. I know it's centered for a younger teen audience but honestly they can't sell the dreadful product this movie is. I've actually read the book and I really enjoyed it, it was fun and romantic and it also had some twist and turns. I feel that this movie presented the spoiler topic or even the LGBT one very poorly. In the book these two topics make an impact to the reader and here I just didn't care as a viewer. Over all, I don't have anything that positive to say about this film so I'm leaving this review. I'd advice to try other teen rom-coms because there are so many out there and this one will probably waist your time.

I enjoyed two major films on the premise of person waking up in a different body everyday. However, in those films the new bodies were akin to wearing new clothes albeit they were every shape, size and gender. There was never any 'life' or 'family' attached to the new bodies. This tale is drastically different since we have a spirit or entity named A who possesses very real bodies including the body's family and life for one day. The film covered a major plot hole by allowing A access to the host bodies 'mind' i.e. he knew friends names and could cook as well as the one real host. The host, on the other hand, would have little or no recollection of events occurring when he/she was possessed for the day.This allowed for some interesting situations i.e. opportunity to 'save' a host from the upcoming dangerous situation. Most interesting we are told A has been body snatching since childhood, into male and female bodies so that we do not know A's gender...do spirits have genders? A fun, harmless tale, sans violence, but covering teen angst situations both at home and at school including sex, the latter taking place off screen.The ending scene was predictable and it worked. Just as in the other 'new body everyday' films the movie takes advantage of the situation offering up an array of genders, sizes, shapes of hosts making life a daily challenge for our heroine. Especially, since here the body snatching 'rule' requires the host be high school age.

When I read the premise, I felt it was a rip on the YouTube series, without giving credit. But I decided to watch it anyway. And, I really enjoyed it. Since its a teen romance type drama, something I haven't watched since my own teens back in the 80s, I watched it without that fore knowledge. The only YA I watch are sci-fi or fantasy based films. So, to watch Every Day and to still have it hold my attention and keep me captivated, without all the flash bang effects of other CGI multi-million $ productions, it did a very good job. Time is precious to me and taking it out to watch a film, I usually wouldn't watch and yet still enjoy as much as I did this one, was well worth it.The portrayals were great and the lead did an awesome job.
