David Nicholls decided to adapt his own 2009 novel, One Day
Not gonna lie, this is the kind of movie I tend to fall for. I prefer a straight up romance, presented in (relatively) unique fashion to the tired old rom-coms we get nowadays. And yet I'm extremely weary about this one. It's not a problem with Anne Hathaway. I'm sure she'll be fantastic despite the disappearing/reappearing accent she has here. It's Jim Sturgess, who I always feel is still working because better actors simply can't take every role. Maybe he'll change my mind for once.
One Day makes it's way into theaters on August 19th where it'll be soundly thrashed by something much bigger.
