Movie: Before We Go 2014

 ★/

Main Characters:
Chris Evans as Nick Vaughan
Alice Eve as Brooke Dalton
Nick: You  seemed perfect.
Harry: Well, Nick, there is no perfect. There will always be struggle. You just have to pick who you want to struggle with.
I always love romantic movies and this one I definitely loved! Aside from the fact that Chris Evans is gorgeous, Before We Go just proved us that one serendipitous night can change the course of your life. 

Nick and Brooke are brought together by fate as they meet at Grand Central Terminal on the night they are both making important decision in their life. It all starts when Brooke drops her phone and Nick gives it back. Being unlucky enough, Brooke also got robbed that night leaving her penniless. So Nick,being a gentleman or something, offers to share a cab with Brooke but it turns out that he doesn't have enough money too and his credit cards are all declined. And next thing that happens, Nick and Brooke are on a mission to find Brooke's purse and everything else happens along the way which eventually leads to a decision they both didn't think they would make at the end. 


I'm a sucker for love stories and I do believe that two people can fall in love no matter how long or how short they spend time together-one year, one month, one week, or even one night. In Nick and Brooke's case, they spent a night sharing stories and problems, confiding and eventually trusting each other. In those hours they were together, they came to know each other and it led to something they didn't expect to happen.

In the end they decided to let each other go because it was the right thing to do. Brooke was married and they both knew that though what they felt that night was real, it was just right for Brooke to come home to her husband and fix their marriage.
 Nick: Nick. It's you again. Listen, I want to give you one more piece of advice. You're gonna be playing one night... Grand Central... thinking of every reason in the world to not go see the girl that broke your heart. Then you're gonna meet somebody. And now at first, she's gonna seem... icy. You're gonna know right away she's trouble. She's gonna take all your money. You're probably gonna get punched in the face. But, uh... stick with her. You're gonna need her a lot more than she needs you. And at the end of the night, you're gonna want to say some things, but don't. Don't ruin it. It's nothing she doesn't already know. Just give her a kiss. Wish her good luck. And, uh... thank her. Thank her for showing you that you can love one more person in this life. 
Brooke: Oh, wait! Um, Nick? It's Brooke. Don't pay your credit card that month. Okay. (hangs up) He said he wasn't planning on it. 
Nick: Good luck.
Brooke: Thank you, Nick. 

I hope you enjoy this movie as much as I did! :)
