Not Good Enough
" To All The Guys Who Loved Me " had a good concept but a boring execution.
Even from the first episode things didn't look so good. The story, though was interesting theoretically, did not have a smooth start. The love triangle was boring, oldish and predictable, even though it had the potential for a solid bromance, which was ruined as they tried to create it only towards the end, and by then, they both had established a rocky relationship. The main couple was okay, but the repeated flashbacks, the cliche lines, and the cheesy scenes ruined it. The whole past lives was not excecuted well and thus, it ended up not being well explained, being repeated over and over, and almost dominated the present relationship. The side characters, in addition, although they provided some comedy relief moments, they were forgoten and their stories was almost not concluded.
Finally, the performances were, at least, pretty great, as it is expected from an all stars cast.
So, overall, 3.5 out of 10. The drama could have been a sweet, light romantic comedy with some dramatic elements and the just right amount of cliche, but it just was too boring.
