Atonement

my jaw dropped at the plot twist at the end. literally DROPPED. This movie is literally beautiful like the aesthetic and the chemistry is just like top tier. Never hated anyone more than that little girl played by Saoirse.

was not expecting that ending. what a beautiful full circle to the title. perfect wording. it’s a very sad story in it’s entirety, but a damn good film. makes u question ur feelings of characters.

the deviation from chronological order portraying how much briony wishes she could go back as well as different perspectives is breathtaking. the score with the typewriting ticks woven in throughout the movie 12/10. james mcavoy deserves all the accolades and keira knightley was born to play in period pieces.

(could’ve gotten to the point a lil quicker a few times) 9/10

I’m a sucker for a period piece romance movie. This was beautiful and harrowing. The directing was 10/10

i’m never watching a movie ever again

I loved this movie omg i cried at the ending, WHY DID IT HAVE TO END LIKE THAT😭

Ngl I didn’t read the description and I went in with ZERO knowledge of what this movie was about and I was NOT expecting it to head down the road that it did. I’m a sucker for a period piece, the visuals were beautiful, the romance, tension and yearning were top tier 8/10
