Summer in February

Even though this movie has a wonderful setting and some wonderful shots of the raw nature around Cornwall, the story just isn't interesting enough to keep you entertained. The first part is rather messy with introducing the characters, so when the the story really takes off you have the feeling they skipped over a lot (which they don't.) What happens next is still very predictable and the lack of interesting dialog makes the movie pretty boring. But they made a good choice with Emily Browning. She has a noteworthy performance with her impressive subtle acting. Being able to show so much (realistic) expression changes and emotional depth proofs how good she can be on the screen. It saves the movie from being a complete waste, and makes you realize how underrated she is as an actress.
