Summary: Iris invites her friend Jack to stay at her family's island getaway after the death of his brother.
Review: A good surprise, since I’m a bit picky with this
kind of romantic dramas. A movie with only three people involved that worked
perfectly by maintaining the story interesting till the end. This would be
impossible if the acting wasn’t so natural and truthful – Emily Blunt, Mark
Duplass and Rosemarie DeWitt were fantastic. A handful of non-forced comic
situations helped to set the climate, in a story where friendship and love walk
side-by-side. The dramatic side of the story was explored without being too
sentimental but the conflict’s resolution was set up too quickly, without
maturation, being the only drawback.
