Cute Movie - Spoiler Alert
My sister and I are very medical knowledgeable and many things in the movie didn't make sense medically and at times a bit hard to follow. But near the end there was a MAJOR unexpected plot twist that clarified things. Overall decent romance movie. Wish there was a bit more to the ending.

Great movie. Terrible source material.
Everything, Everything is a 2017 American romantic drama film directed by Stella Meghiea and written by J. Mills Goodloe, based on Nicola Yoon’s 2015 novel of the same name. The film was produced by Elysa Dutton and Leslie Morgenstein and stars Amandla Stenberg and Nick Robinson and follows a young woman named Maddy (Stenberg) who has a serious medical condition that prevents her from leaving her home, and her neighbor Olly (Robinson), who wants to help her experience life and they begin falling in love.I suppose I will start with the most obvious praise this film deserves; The performances by both Stenberg and Robinson are grounded in that this story feels remarkably believable. Maddy’s condition is an obvious centerpoint of their relationship, but this film is void of melodramatics and doesn't depend on exaggerated interactions to make the audience understand how these two young adults feel about one another.Regardless, I would have liked to have seen more palpable anxiety on Maddie's part regarding her condition and the constraints related to it because at times her casual nature seems to ultimately downplay the severity of it (hold this thought). It is possible that her disposition is a result of her being “used” to the lifestyle imposed upon her, but that doesn’t explain the nature in which other characters project their worries about her safety on to her during moments where it seems unnecessary and flippant.It only makes sense that this is based off of the book, and the good news is that this movie may even be better than the novel is based off of. The scenes in which characters are using Electronics to communicate with one another or brought to life in a way that is visually appealing and speaks to the amount of imagination and creativity that Maddy is capable of. In addition to this, brief moments are included in the film that are not in the book when we would absolutely expect them to be - like the scene when Olly tapes bunch of pictures of the ocean to Maddy’s - and this adds an ultimately more romantic and chivalrous aura to their relationship. This ultimately fits the pacing of their relationship developing that the movie intends to embrace, and I applaud Meghiea for making artistic changes that ultimately tell a more refined story in a limited amount of time.Despite the compliments that can be awarded to ‘Everything, Everything’ I honestly felt rather angry when I was done watching it. I can only say this as someone that doesn't have a chronic illness that affects my life in the same way that Maddy’s does, but the plot twist and the conclusion ultimately feels disrespectful to people that are able to relate to her as a character. More than that, all I can say is that the twisted attempt to make the overall plot in some ways related to a gesture of love following a traumatic event is perhaps even more disrespectful. I had planned on taking this anger out on my movie review and giving this a one or two star, but the sad truth is that this film is ultimately well done and is sadly really close to its source material. I have decided to redirect my energy and just announce in the most polite way possible: The story this movie is based off of SUCKS.I can’t say I like this movie enough to enthusiastically recommend it, because my conscience doesn’t allow me to.I will say, however, this is a most impressively coordinated train wreck.

BEST MOVIE EVER!!
FIrst of all, I just love the female character. Not only did she do an AMAZING job in The Darkest Minds, but she really shined in this movie as well. After reading the book, I immediately fell in love with the plot and characters so I just HAD to watch this movie. I just want to thank the author, Nicola Yoon, for creating this amazing book that warmed my heart and opened up a new perspective for me to look at the world through. Even though Maddy was trapped in her house for all of her life, the author somehow made a connection between Maddy and the reader and made it so relatable. Her mother is overprotective, like all our mothers are (except hers is an extreme case) and the relationship between them is nearly tangible. Of course the romance is on point, I love how she added the emailing/texting thing to make it kinda cheesy but honestly it was so cute! The movie really portrayed the important scenes and I lovvveeeddd the scenes in Hawaii. It was so beautifulll! I swear I could keep watching this movie over and over and never get bored. It made me feel so many emotions and honestly kinda feel like crying right now thinking about it. I was so happy that in the end, they found each other and decided to leave behind the past and start a new future TOGETHER (they were so meant for each other). Anyways, I should shut up now because this is pretty long so whoever reads this (most likely no one), I hope you understand how much I loved this!P.S: I would also like to add that you should probably watch the movie BEFORE you read the book because if you do it in the opposite order, you might feel disappointed since the movie doesn't cover as much as the book does. I have always preferred the books over movies so obviously I have bias, but I was highly recommended reading the book after! The romance in the movie is pretty fast paced and it seems like it's happening all at once after only texting each other a few times, but I swear it was much slower than that in the book (which is why I love them so much because they have SO MUCH detail).

It wasn’t much like the book
I’m not the person really to complain about things not being like the book, but they just changed things for the movie. I don’t care if they leave some details out, that happens, but they would just change some things it was weird

Perfect, but you MUST read the book!
Absolutely perfect movie based on Nicola Yoon's book Everything Everything. I would say read the book first and then watch the movie. The book goes into so much more detail and it makes watching the movie totally worth it. Real Love is worth the risk 🥰

Très belle romance.
Maddy fête son 18ème anniversaire dans sa maison qu'elle ne peut jamais quitter à cause de sa maladie.Ses journées sont aussi monotones que sa vie et ses perspectives d'avenir ne sont pas roses non plus.C'est alors que dans la maison voisine emménagent Olly, sa soeur et ses parents.Maddy va alors enfin comprendre ce que vivre vraiment veut dire.Cette romance entre adolescents n'a rien de révolutionnaire en soi mais sa douceur, son humour et le couple formé par Maddy / Olly font de ce film une véritable petite pépite.La maladie de Maddy occupe bien évidemment une place importante mais ce n'est jamais larmoyant comme dans Love Story par exemple.Les acteurs étaient inconnus pour moi mais ils sont tous très bons et on croit vraiment à leur histoire.C'est beau, bien filmé et la bande son, sans être exceptionnelle, est de qualité.Quant à la fin du film, je dois dire que je ne m'y attendais pas du tout.N'hésitez pas ensuite à revisionner le film pour encore mieux apprécier certaines scènes et les voir sous un autre angle.
