The performance of Emilia Clarke in this film is probably what made this film what it is. The film itself is very well shot and is a somewhat strange mix of tear jerking sadness and rather funny comedic moments. The film is more of a very sad romantic comedy rather than a romantic Drama. However, this slightly confusing mix does not lessen the films value. It is what it is, and to me, the performance of Emilia Clarke really did make the film.
If you watch Game of Thrones the chameleon performance by Clarke in this feature really is astounding. Me before You shows maybe a truer version of Clarke, this character somewhat seems to be an interpretation of Clarke herself in personality much more than her character in the long running TV series Game of Thrones. A very quirky relatable girl that all in the audience can appreciate and relate to in one way or another.
The film has gotten some bad press from the disabled community for its overall message, which is understandable. However, this doesn't mean that the film itself is not any less enjoyable.
This feature is thoroughly enjoyable to anyone with an open mind to the world of romance and love between two slightly mismatched people. A lovely story about trying to save someone, but also about learning to let them go when you truly love them.
