sskoshti When I first watched this movie I loved it so much , I actually was watching this movie for a week repeatedly and didn't get bored for single time.The writing is amazing, Elisabeth Harnois (Natalie Anderson) and Jesse McCarteny (Keith) did a wonderful acting.This movie is one of my favorite Romantic Movie which I can watch many time but never gets bored.Last scene on the airport where Keith says I screwed you Anderson I screwed you big time and Natalie replies yes you screwed me so what me? I made love to you. That was one of the best moment of the movie.
amymom-18677 I'm a substitute teacher and a female 13 year old student recommended I watch this movie. After watching, I am very worried that teens are emotionally moved by this movie. The main character is completely derailed from her goals, life aspirations, interests, friends with good influences... All by a boy who intentionally wants to "have fun" at her expense because he is depressed from dying from cancer and life isn't fair. He of course withholds that from her, plays mind games with her, and thus she loses perspective and falls for him. The parents, teachers, and counselor are portrayed as incompetent. She loses her virginity to this guy who immediately says to forget it happened. I would not let my daughter watch this. It normalizes the worst parts of psychopathic liars, making their relationship appear desirable and romantic! Especially disappointed by the ending where she chooses to take on the boy's interests and she completely forgets her own. She loses her identity to this psychopathic boy's. Just no.
picasdan Keith exceeded my expectation of a twenty-oh-something movie. Without a shadow of doubt, the camera angles, characters stereotypes and background plotting are typical of Hollywood movies done at this time. However, the scripting is extremely powerful (maybe even empowering) and thus, gets the movie awarded as one of my high recommendations.To start off, Natalie epitomises a girl whose parents expect much from her and put her into the mold to complete a recipe that probably guarantees a successful adult as the outcome. As a matter of fact, immediate positive outcomes are rather palpable; she views them as fruits that she has industriously worked for: a seat in AP Chemistry class, a coveted boyfriend, a top position in a tennis league that likely grants her a college scholarship. Therefore, rebellion is hardly seen at the beginning of the movie.Acting as the build-up of tensions in the story line, she met Keith, a boy who doesn't fit into the norm and shows much anarchism. He alters Natalie's perception towards her playing tennis, acquiescing to her parents and eventually her whole life in general. Indisputably, the influence that Keith has on Natalie is tremendous, even redefining herself and unravelling what she wishes to attain.Interestingly, despite having an official boyfriend who causes much jealousy, Natalie doesn't freely open to him. She declines to have sex, lying to him about her spending time with Keith. Meanwhile, her relationship with Keith is naturally fostered with barely any obligations. Clearly, Natalie finds a strong connection with Keith, the one that Rafael cannot possibly develop. She feels free when she's around with Keith, and more importantly, is herself and not any replication of someone else's shattered dream.Keith reflects a darker side of, in my opinion, everyone. This side sees the future tinged with a bleak palette, a hopeless prospect of desperation. Moreover, it propels exclusion; one doesn't think he or she is worthwhile of connections with others.I sees lots of aspects of myself in the movie, and I believe so do any other ordinary human. The concept of human connection has become so familiar yet strange to many of us; familiar because all relations we have are, in essence, human connections, and strange because few of us mention it or endeavour to conceive a term for such thing.All in all, the complex scripting of the simple scripting revolving around humans connections makes this movie stand out, and luckily I notice this brilliant anomaly.
Kelsey Wicker Keith was a very unexpectedly great movie. Most movies don't captivate my full attention but this movie had me glued to my TV screen. It was a well thought-out movie that captured your heart and left you wanting more after every plot twist.The main characters acting is so professional that it leads you to feel the same emotions they feel.It is quite possibly the best independent film I've ever seen. If you want a movie that will make you feel many emotions then this is the movie to watch. Jesse Mcartney did an amazing job convincing me that he had issues in this movie. I like how the director kept you guessing. I personally love sitting on the edge of my seat during a movie and this film didn't disappoint. Don't miss out. It is on netflix by the way. I highly recommend this film. Enjoy 😊
