Before midnight (2013) [44/50]



Language: English

Cast:  Ethan Hawke, Julie Delpy

Story: The continuation of the story of the two characters from ‘before sunrise’ and ‘before sunset’ after 9 years and how there life has unfolded.

Screenplay and direction: Direction and screenplay are very good though not as good as it’s predecessors.

Performances: Effortless performances once again.

Interesting:  It’s the third and latest in the series if 3(so far) movies.

USP: the conversation and the effortless acting.

Downside: while the 1st two were out of a dream this one is more real.

Verdict: not as good as the first two. It is a fairytale like story given a more realistic and rather inane turn, which makes it less appealing than the others. This one is 7/10 stand alone, but overall the series is still a 9/10 for me.
