Things I enjoyed
- Though not particularly 'dark skinned', Jacob Elordi is well suited to the role of surly sweaty gigahunk.
- An unashamed fanfic quality which I found amusing. It honestly felt as if it had been dreamt up by a horny teenager on tumblr at points.
Things I didn't enjoy
- The whole thing had a music video gloss which made the landscape feel incidental. It felt like a set not something the characters actually inahbited. Even when they were banging on the moors they didn't seem to get muddy. This was a problem for me.
- Fundamentally, once you got past the visual glitz and knowingly executed tropes it felt completely emotionally empty. Given that this version seems to be about the enduring power of passionate undying love this was also a major problem.
Things that intrigued me
- Jacob Elordi doing the same accent as Christian Bale in The Prestige.
Verdict
48 heaving bosoms out of 100
