I recently read “If I stay” by Gayle Forman,
and I really liked it (see my whole review). I read it meanly because I wanted
to see the movie, which was hyped up when it came out.
The movie was overall good, I was hoping to
like it more but it wasn’t bad at all. However it wasn’t a movie I will
consider watching over and over again.
As a book to movie adaptation it was pretty
decent and accurate. Of course, there were things which were more shocking in
the book and weren’t picturing like that in the movie. But also, there were
parts added in the movie that weren’t like that in the book, like the fact Mia
and Adam were apart. There was a thing I really liked and it was the characters,
they were pretty accurate and I’m not talking about their physical appearance,
being honest I didn’t even remember their appearance on the books, but the
feeling they transmitted. And it’s also true the feeling watching the movie was
the same as reading the book. Never the less, maybe it might be a little slow
or boring for those how haven’t read the book.
To sum up, I think if you have read “If I stay”
you might want to watch the movie, it’s a good adaptation I think you will
like. If you haven’t read the book, be aware, the movie isn’t really fast paced
and might even get a little confused.
