It's no a great movie, but it has a nice plot, good acting. I think the book is probably better.

I cried so much after watching this. Which was an hour ago.

I like the twist and the ending but the story as a whole isn't quite engaging. What kind of best friend makes a contact to each other only a day in a year?

They don't contact each other once in a year, the 'One Day' refers to the day they originally met and the book/movie focuses in on that day each year. They mention often how they spend time together and contact each other during the year.

Beautifully made, I absolutely loved it. I hadn't read the book, so I wasn't at all prepared for such a heartbreaking end, but I guess it just made the movie even better.

The book was amazing, the movie was cute, but had much more room for potential.

I didn't regret going to the movies to see this. The book was however better. But it's indeed very hard to fit such a long timeline into just one movie. It was rushed, but I think they did ok.

Actually, I haven't read the book, but after seeing the movie and reading satisfythecrave's comment, I want to.
It seems like such an interesting plot. It has the best of a romance and the worst of real life.
My only critique was that I wanted to see some details be more developed, I'm glad to see it has some sense, even to someone who read the book.
On the other hand, how could it not seem rushed, it's hard to fit 23 years into 107min..

As someone who read the book beforehand, I don't exactly know how to feel about this movie. The film literally follows the book's setup, but it leaves out a lot of important details, or just compresses each year/chapter into a few minutes. Although I'm glad to see some of the better lines from the book were included, it seemed so rushed. A lot of what, in the book, made Emma and Dexter and the other characters (many who were either left out or not properly explored) so great was left out, and many of the personal thoughts in the book that showed Emma's and Dexter's ambitions/hopes/feelings, etc weren't incorporated. It would of been great to have the other relationships that Emma and Dexter had been explored. I really want to like this movie since the book was so great, but I don't think I do :(

Also, v, sorry *to, not *too.

It dragged on for way too long. Why hide a plot point in '89 that you know was going to play a main role throughout the entire movie?

What plot point are you referring too?
