It takes a great writer and director to have two central people deliver a delightful movie; Chris & Brooke deliver!
Two people stumble upon each other, each in need of friendship. You want details, read the other reviews, they are excellent. Or (!!) Watch this wonderful moving human relationship movie about friendship, that is not self motivated, rather, people who care about other strangers and become friends.

Evans and Eve out class Sleepless in Seattle........
Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2015
Before We Go, showcases the savvy acting chops of Evans & Eve in a surprising camp little movie that had me laughing, crying and shouting from start to finish.......I knew Evans could get immersed in an erstwhile script, but I had no idea Alice Eve was all that talented, but she is. I believe that like a lot of others, Eve was sic. (Just another pretty face) she is, but she's indeed a very solid actress to boot. I realize my only Exposure to Eve before this comedy, was Star Trek Into Darkness, but that's a whole discussion for another time, Eve was under estimated by JJ Abrams, or was she? Looking forward to seeing both of these fine actors in the days ahead........Cheers,

Okay, so I don't typically write movie reviews, because we all know I showed up for the big name here: Chris Evans. And if you didn't, well, now you do.
That being said, I don't think this movie is what I expected. Nor do I like it just for him.
I knew it was a romance. I saw the trailer yesterday, and wanted to see this more than ever before. I expected a typical romance--the guy and girl meet, they go through stuff to help each other, they fall in love forever. And those traits can apply to this movie, but in that same breath, it was so different from typical format. The ending threw me, the events weren't everyday. Everything about it was familiar, yet unexpected.
Nick is pining for this woman he's loved for a long time. Brooke is married and having issues of her own. They meet as Nick is trumpeting in Grand Central and Brooke is running to chase down a train and drops her phone as she passes him, effectively breaking it and missing her train. And so begins a journey through a night in NYC where old loves are confronted, issues arise, a lifetime opportunity is revealed...they find they don't have to have sex or make out every three seconds to see flickers of love beginning to spark.
That's where this is so different. You get to know the characters through their own stories as well as their story together. It's not rushed or forced between them. It's almost infuriating that it seems to be moving so slow at times, but I think that's what makes it more a true-to-life experience. So refreshing. Evans as Nick was almost heartbreaking at some parts, because I swear he seriously looks on the verge of tears himself--the sad eyes he naturally has, I'm sure, help with that. Alice Eve's Brooke was played well. She made her character strong when she needed Brooke to be, weak when Brooke had to be. Both were fantastic together as though maybe Nick and Brooke could be a couple, but maybe it could never work between them.
This is also Chris Evans' directorial debut. And don't let thoughts of his RomCom goofiness, his pompous Johnny Storm or Lucas Lee rolls, or stints as the GREATEST Captain in all of America cloud your judgment about this. He brought a feel to the movie that I hadn't experienced before...or maybe in a really long time. The camera work was brilliant, keeping the focus on Nick and Brooke, quite literally. On long shots, the world around them was not perfectly clear, but they were. Close-ups were them and a very blurred background/foreground. It felt like a very intimate setting where it's just you watching or spying on these two characters. It was really a great way to make it seem more personal. The score works well with the story, the soundtrack as well. The way the music was pieced into the movie reminds me of Bright Lights, Big City...Recent updated music, mixed with the old, mixed with something jazzy. It blended with the story very well.
All in all, I am very surprised that I loved this more than I thought I would. I mean, with the exception of Johnny Storm (because he was so pompous and arrogant...Chris Evans did that one a little too well), I admit to liking the majority of Chris Evans' projects. (Fangirl, what can I say?) But even if I had neutral feelings about him, I would love this movie all the same. The story and the characters alone should win it, and I think here, they did. I recommend at least one watch. I also recommend keeping a box of tissues handy for when you watch, because it did make me cry. You have been warned.

Before We Go is a 2014 film directed by Chris Evans who also stars with Alice Eve. The screenplay is genius, enough so that we're shocked to learn that five people share the credit. Filmed in real time, Nick and Brooke stumble onto each other as strangers at Grand Central Station at 1:30 in the morning after her purse is stolen and we've already seen that Nick is there with his trumpet wrestling with some heavy life decisions. He decides to help her return to Boston by 7:00am and the two embark on a night time quest in Manhattan at first with cautious self protection then slowly a rarely seen humanity begins to bond the two.
It's wonderful to see Chris Evans spreading his wings as the gifted actor and director that he is. These elements were visible decades ago in work like "London", "Puncture", and "Loss Of A Teardrop Diamond." But Hollywood's penchant for flying spiders, torch heroes and crime fighters dressed as bats has filled his dance card. Evans is one of our best actors, singers and dancers and now-it's clear-directors. It's refreshing to be given a work that is of this calibre with a screenplay worthy of Tracy Letts and direction worthy of Jonathan Demme.
The brilliance with which they bring Nick and Brooke together is beautiful.
Nick: Don't feel badly.
Brooke: I don't feel badly. (Smile) I feel bad.
Nick: (almost laughing.) Did you just do that? Did you correct my grammar?
Brooke: I've been silently doing it all night. Don't make that face!
Nick: Well, glad to know that were at that point in our relationship where you feel comfortable doing it out loud.
Brooke: it's all downhill from here.
Nick: I feel like I missed all the good uphill stuff.
It's not just the dialogue, it's the comfortable, superb acting and the fact that this exchange occurs in the very place Nick has been dreading all night, a technique of scripting meant to relax us and keep us guessing simultaneously; to feel exactly what the characters are feeling.
Maybe that's why it took five writers. (They are: Ron Blass, Jen Smolka, Chris Shafer, Paul Vicknair)
This isn't a "chick flick". It's active and adventuresome but from the human condition. Before We Go is a rare film about well defined characters and how people need each other. This is a beautiful film. "You don't have to believe it for it to make an impact."

Die Entscheidung liegt in uns selbst
Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on November 25, 2017
Selten, das ich einen Film gesehen hab, der mich dazu bewegt hat, vereinzelte Dialoge mir ein 2. mal anzuhören, und das beim ersten schauen!
Während das Cover eher versucht, typisches Romanzen Klischee zu erfüllen und einige auch dahingehend vermuten, das es in diesem Film genau darum geht, will der Film etwas anderes sagen.
Denn wie oft sprechen wir Dinge aus, ohne uns wirklich darüber im Klaren zu sein, welche BEdeutung sie für uns haben, was dieser Film in einzelnen Szenen einfach am Blick der Protagonisten ziemlich gut erkennen lässt; dieses kurze innehalten, wenn sie etwas ausgesprochen haben, das Sich bewußt werden, die Fähigkeit zur Selbst Reflektion und immer wieder dieser "Tanz" vom Ich und Du, von Nähe und Distanz und dieses Spiel mit den kleinen Zufällen, die uns mit dem Unberechenbarkeiten des Lebens konfrontieren.
Kann ein Du wirklich unsere Gedanken kpl. erfassen und sofort wissen was für uns richtig ist oder liegt grad in der Aussprache der Gedanken nicht die Frage, mit der WIR uns eigentlich beschäftigen?
Szene Cafe:
"Aber es ist möglich, das man einen Menschen trifft, der perfekt zu einem passt, obwohl man sich bereits für einen anderen entschieden hat" worauf die Antwort erfolgt: "Nein. Denn wenn Du Dich entschieden hast, lässt Du es gar nicht zu, das Du Erfüllung bei einem anderen findest."
Die darauf folgendenden Szenen gipfelnd in der Taxi Szene sind bezeichnend, die Blicke ebenfalls.
"Wenn mir nur die Einfälle eines Mannes geblieben sind...."
Also nehmt Euch Zeit, geniesst, und das Wichtigste: Hört genau zu ;)

Reviewed in Germany 🇩🇪 on April 1, 2017
"Before you go" ist ein relativ langsamer, aber sehr intensiver und emotional mitreißender Film. Man merkt die Entwicklung der beiden Hauptdarsteller wirklich sehr und ist so dem Film auch nicht böse, obwohl das Ende schon sehr offen ist.
Für einen gemütlichen Abend absolut zu empfehlen - wunderschöne Liebesgeschichte

Den Film habe ich vor Jahren auf einem Filmfestival gesehen und war begeistert. So einen schönen Film habe ich schon wirklich lange nicht gesehen. Für den Film gebe ich 4 Sterne.
Leider kann die DVD von meinem DVD/Bluray Player nicht abgespielt werden. Ich nehme an das liegt daran, dass die DVD aus den USA stammt und die dort andere Codes für die DVDs nutzen.
