Watch "If I Stay" full movie
The newest Young Adult (YA) novel to movie film has been received well by audiences. But how does it compare to 2014's biggest YA hit- "The Fault in Our Stars?"
Washington Post's Ann Hornaday gave her honest review of the movie, saying:
Viewers who luxuriated in a good cry after "The Fault in Our Stars" may be gratified to know that it's not time to stop sobbing. The perfect bookend to a tear-stained summer, "If I Stay" has arrived in theaters with the same good taste, modest cool factor and shameless tear-jerking that made its predecessor such a multi-hankie hit."
"Granted, the group isn't channeling Joey Ramone as much as Clear Channel's pop heartthrob du jour. But the musical sequences - including an impromptu Smashing Pumpkins jam in Mia's back yard - bring some welcome verve to talky scenes of soulful heart-to-hearts and teary hand-wringing. Rest assured, there's plenty of that, too, in "If I Stay." But even at its most wrenchingly painful, the film readily delivers generous dollops of pleasure."
What is the movie all about? Google provides a quick description of "If I Stay" full movie:
"Mia Hall thought the hardest decision she would ever face would be whether to pursue her musical dreams at Juilliard or follow a different path to be with the love of her life, Adam. But what should have been a carefree family drive changes everything in an instant, and now her own life hangs in the balance. Caught between life and death for one revealing day, Mia has only one decision left, which will not only decide her future but her ultimate fate."
