Le dernier jour de ma vie

Le montage se révèle particulièrement efficace dans cette partie centrale, avec des ellipses et des variantes qui poussent le film vers l'avant sans perdre le spectateur.

La protagoniste de Before I Fall lutte avec une impression de déjà-vu. Normal, c'est le sujet du film. Hélas, le spectateur éprouve le même sentiment. Pas normal. 

Adaptation of popular young-adult novel keeps its teen heroine on repeat until she gets things right.

Adapted from Lauren Oliver’s successful YA novel of the same name, helmer Ry Russo-Young’s fourth feature Before I Fall sees the indie director (...) successfully transitioning to mainstream filmmaking. 

This YA adaptation with Zoey Deutch as a popular girl in a time loop of life and death has sincerity and style.

Envision a film that combines the perpetual do-over premise of Groundhog Day with the smug high-school alpha femmes of Mean Girls.

The basic premise of Before I Fall feels like it was created by a roomful of cynical studio executives trying to create a successful project. The end result, however, while it isn't without issues, also isn't without charm.

Even though I’m not quite sure Before I Fall deserved the Sundance berth it received back in January, as far as mainstream teen programmers go, it’s not half bad.

But the film mostly retains its humanity (...).

Ry Russo-Young's YA adaptation feels distinct from so many teen-centric melodramas, even as it recycles the premise of Groundhog Day.
