For all the time this movie spends going back and forth through time, the characters at the center of the story are never really given a chance to become fleshed out and more complex. The plot jumps between four different stories, which are slowly revealed to all be closely connected to one another. Really though, only two of the story lines are engaging, mainly because there is very little time spent with the other two, and because of this the plot feels disjointed at times. The plot does eventually come together though, and when it does the movie makes much more sense and is easier to follow. The movie definitely feels a bit melodramatic a lot of the time also, especially towards the end. I did actually like some aspects of it though, namely the romance between Jennifer Lawrence and JD Pardo, which seemed sweet, albeit occasionally cheesy. If the movie had been more focused and maybe just stuck to one story at a time, the characters could have been much more compelling, but because of the plot that's constantly pulling the characters in different directions, they're never given a chance to show their true colors. The movie ends up being mediocre but watchable, and as long as you're not expecting too much out of it, you might like it.
