OK, so maybe its not a 7 but, a 7.5 rating. To be honest I decided to see this movie because my wife had a very similar life to that of ¨Ema¨. Growing up with her grandma, not getting along with her mother, spending 95 percent of her time at grandmas house etc etc...Until grandmas death. I have to say that I shared the last 3 years of which only maybe the last 2 months before her death it was a nightmare for us.
Although the storyline and film set was pretty well done I have to say, their was something magical, something else needed to really touch my feelings and really believe that bond between Ema and Abu. I felt that the movie jumped very quickly from Ema been a little girl and then been an adult with her boyfriend, and not much was told of their relationship (Ema /Abu) in between. Other than that this is is great but, I felt their was a lack of details for the main characters that were needed in order to feel that 'Click' at the end of the movie.
