A Long Way Down (a movie) Hello everyone! I saw a movie called "A Long Way Down" a week ago. I like it a lot. The movie is really enjoyable. Actors were so different. It's hard to believe that they could play in one movie, but it turned out they match each other perfectly. The movie is about four people who wanted to commit suicide. They met each other on the top of a building. Each of them wanted to jump off the building. Fortunately, they didn't let each other to do it. They helped one another just to live and not to give up during next 6 weeks and then during their lifes. I was surprised that the movie doesn't have high rating and many good reviews. Maybe a director haven't adapted the book properly. I don't know. I haven't read the book yet, but I'm going to read it.

A Long Way Down (a movie)

Hello everyone!

 A week ago  I saw a movie called "A Long Way Down"  a week ago .  I like it a lot.  The movie  is  was  really enjoyable.  The   A  actors were so different  from one another. It's hard to believe that they could play  together  in one movie, but it turned out they match each other perfectly.

The movie is about four people who wanted to commit suicide. They met each other on the top of a building. Each of them wanted to jump off the building. Fortunately, they didn't let each other  to  do it. They helped one another  just  to live and not to give up during next  6  six  weeks and then during their  lifes  lives.

I  was  am  surprised that the movie doesn't have  a  high rating and many good reviews. Maybe  a  the  director  haven't  had not  adapted the book properly. I don't know. I haven't read the book yet, but I'm going to read it.

 

----------

You have used very good English. Well done.  Just two points that I'd like to make.

 

First, try to keep the "tense" (past, present, or future) consistent within a sentence and, if possible, within a paragraph.

 

Second, if you use a comparative word such as "different", be sure that the reader understands the comparison.  For example, you wrote, "The actors were so different."  Different from what?  Different from the characters they normally play?  Different from normal people?  Different from each other?

 

----------

It really doesn't matter what critics or other people think about a movie.  One of my favourite movies has a rating of just 9% on Rotten Tomatoes.  (<em>A Long Way Down</em> also has a poor rating of 22%.)  All that matters is whether you enjoyed the movie.
