Every Day

What we have here is an honestly simplified film for teen audiences that gently breaks barriers and embraces diversity, LGBTQ sexuality and pure romantic love. It's nothing close to a great film, but neither is it something young audiences see every day.

There’s a playfulness to Every Day, to how the film says to its audience — through the very structure of its Afterschool Special sci-fi design — that if you want to find love, you’ve got to look beyond the surface.

There are any number of metaphorical applications for A’s condition, some implied more strongly than others, including trans struggles, gender fluidity...teenage desire to fit in, even accidental catfishing.... Every Day is sweet and sincere enough to remain open to these interpretations, but too gentle to assert itself into anything of real consequence.

Every Day has an intriguing concept that’s hampered by problematic execution. And it raises several questions it never answers in satisfying fashion, leading to a conclusion that will elicit not just head-scratching but unintentional hilarity.

Throughout, the film raises metaphysical issues of physical and psychological autonomy only to gloss over them, probably because addressing them could too quickly shut down the romance.

Set aside the contrivances and creepy plot twists, and Michael Suscy’s Every Day offers up a timely message about acceptance and the nature of love that’s especially welcome at the moment. Unfortunately, the movie falls short of doing justice to that idea.

At its core is a well-intentioned message about inclusivity and valuing inner beauty, but the film, adapted from the 2012 YA best-seller by David Levithan (albeit with a problematic perspective shift), remains stuck in a stubborn rut somewhere between confusing and snooze-inducing.

Every Day is a great movie, showing that no matter how you are, you can be loved by anyone. I think that what really pissed me off a little bit with this movie is the soundtrack and the ending. It could be done a lot better. But it is a very great movie.

Tiene una trama extraña, pero es entretenida y disfrutable, la recomiendo para distraerte un rato.

Every Day was a good movie, maybe its pace is slow but the story of this was the one that has convinced me the most, besides that the performance of Angourie Rice was the one that did more work on the others, and that when putting more actors in this movie is uncomfortable to see, and know what will happen to our protagonist if we continue to put more and more characters, it was a terrible feeling, but Angourie's performance makes us forget that feeling at times.

After reading the great book, I was super excited for this film adaptation. Sadly, it was nowhere near the quality of the book. The major thing about this film is that literally nothing happened. I can't give this review a spoiler warning because there is nothing to spoil. The whole film is them frolicking about and kissing, and the last three minutes is where the only emotional/plot development happens. This is just a bad, boring movie, but most of all it's disappointing as the book was so good.

As the user "jacoobi456" mentioned in his review, I also read the book before watching the movie. The book is great, it has a really good flow and it's constantly making you even more curious about what's gonna happen next, as every great book. In comparison to the book, the movie lacks in characters' personality, which in the book is really strong and unique. Rhiannon boyfriends is more arrogant and selfish than in the movie and she seems to be more indenpendent and more empowered. Those "simple" details added to the poor acting is determinant to result in tedious screenplay. Personally, I'm really disappointed!
