“Before I Fall” is a movie that follows young, popular high school student Samantha Kingston (Zoey Deutch) as she relives the day she dies over and over again.

This is not a comedy or typical teen movie; it’s almost a rendition of death and how one day can change the course of not only your life but others as well.

Sam is dating the hottest guy in school, is the kindest of the four popular girls and has everything that a girl could ask for, but things change in a second one fateful night.

After realizing that she reliving the same day over, Sam uses her death as an opportunity to change her life and others.

“Before I Fall” was directed by Ry Russo-Young and produced by Matt Kaplan, Jonathan Shestack and Brian Robbins. The film is is based on the book written by Lauren Oliver, a young adult author who is best known for “Before I Fall” and the “Delirium” trilogy.  

Those who are watching because they enjoyed the book will be pleased with the movie. It follows the timeline of the book for the majority of the film.

With the majority of Oliver’s readers being young girls, this movie is definitely for the younger generation, but all ages can enjoy it.

There is profanity throughout the entire movie as well as some racy scenes. Because of this, it is highly recommended that children under 12 or 11 do not come to see this movie.

Sam has the power to change others lives, as long as she realizes what she has to do in order to achieve that.

The soundtrack for this movie really flows with the actions of the characters and important scenes throughout. The songs lead up to the climax in moments and lull when there is a pass in action or reaction.

As Sam begins her day, she realizes that no one else knows or thinks that they are reliving the same day, and at the end when she goes to sleep everything “restarts.”

When the movie comes to an end you will be wishing for more. It’s the type of film you’ll want to restart over and over.
