I could not stop comparing it to the book/audio book! The good stuff: Nicholas Galitzine sang beautifully, the music was awesome! Guard down and Closer were 2 of my favorites, although I wish there was a "7 minutes" or "S" , from the original story. It was quite funny, especially because the book does not really have a romcom vibe, so that was a nice surprise. And as everyone says, the chemistry between Hayes and Solene was there. The ending was satisfying, hopeful The not so good stuff: I'm not sure Anne was the best casting for Solene unfortunately, despite popular opinion. There were changes ( of course as in any book to film adaptation) to the original story that took away from the original characters, and I felt it was unnecessary. This did not need to be Rated R, it is nowhere near as steamy as the book, in terms of graphic sexuality or nudity.
