“I love my pal.”

Spoiler Alerts:

-

I always make sure to read books before I watch the movies so just know that all of my complaints on this movie are truly inconsistencies from the book and I will be giving two ratings: Accuracy & Actual Quality. Quick recall, Everything, Everything is about an 18 year old girl who’s been living indoors her whole life due to a rare disease called SCID. She meets a boy who moves in next door and who she texts and they fall in love and she risks everything for him. She’s not actually sick.

Overall, had I not read the book I probably would’ve liked the movie more. Even without the comparisons the movie has made itself such a generic love story that it’s just good, nothing more. Now onto the accuracy to the book.

First thing that truly irritated me was the lack of backstory on Maddy’s father & brother’s death. Then they COMPLETELY ruin Carla’s plotline. Maddy is supposed to visit Carla before Hawaii, Carla comes back to work for them after Hawaii, and she sees Carla before she leaves for New York.

Speaking of Hawaii, they made Hawaii all based around the way less romantic sex scene that they portray. They take out ALL of the conversation and actually romantic moments between the 2 and give us the sad bland intro to the sex scene in it’s place. They also get rid of Maddy’s architecture teacher and Olly’s gay black rock star friend, Zach. They also changed the ending and took some free licensing in characters and scenes. Lesser crimes but crimes against the book all the same. Otherwise, I’d say it’s a pretty good movie, I liked the acting and the plot a lot.

Overall I’d give it a 7/10 Accuracy and a 8.5/10 Actual Quality.
