[KLM Movies] Many years ago, American director Richard Linklater (Richard Linklater) filmed a small-cost independent production "Before Sunrise", the whole film has two male and female characters, there is no lively or thrilling The plot is just that the two people are talking about each other while visiting the city, deepening their understanding of each other in the process of chatting. It was an unintentional work by the director, but he did not expect it to be well received. Later, the series "Love Before Sunset" and "Love Before Midnight" were filmed, which are more of this type of "talking about (pseudo) love". Set a terribly high standard.

This German film can be regarded as the "Love in the Series" of the RV road trip version. Such subjects usually rely on scenery, music, and lines. The rural scenery of Western Europe is beautiful throughout the journey, from Berlin to Cologne, to France, Spain and so on. The scenery along the way is endless, and the beauty of the mountains and the sea is refreshing. The music selection is not too prominent. The most exciting part is the number of lines, which is wittyly written: the theory of biological evolution, the theory of odor attraction of opposite sex, the theory of marriage persistence, etc., which make people smile from time to time. The script is ingeniously designed, and these two characters coincide with each other, crossing geographical boundaries to relieve their inner doubts and troubles, thus establishing a new direction in life.

It is a pity that the two men and women have not been able to maintain the boundaries of friendship, that is, they have not been able to never break/cross the boundaries of the relationship between men and women like the "Love in the Series". The incompatible comic portrayal in the first half, to the gradually interdependent relationship description, are basically maintained at a more sober level. However, the plot after the two kissed fell into the pit of a small fresh love comedy like a mudslide. In the end, the ending of the heroine's change of heart was really hopeless, completely breaking the rational and ambiguous atmosphere created before. It's not that you don't believe in such a happy ending, but will this "miracle" come too soon?
