One of the wrost movies I have ever seen
Don't Believe the Hype
This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Summor of 8 was definitely not the best movie I've seen, but it was definitely not the worst! The music in this movie was incredible good. that's definitely a plus! The bad thing about this movie is that the whole movie is very long-lasting. The film is not going anywhere, it's about 8 friends who go on a holiday. Its their last vacation before going to college. Throughout the film they talk about themselves and tell stories. If you enjoy listing to stories about college and high school times than this is a movie for you! Going to the end it became way more romantic than it was in the beginning, there grows love between friends that was not yet there. The end of the film was definitely the best! just for that I would definitely like to watch this movie again. Eight equals infinity! (if you have watched till the end you will know why I say this.)All in all it was definitely a good movie!
This film left me wondering why it was made. A group of privileged middle-class American kids spend their last day together before separating to go to college. There is little other story, the movie meanders on with a script like a wet lettuce. I kept watching, expecting a twist, a bombshell to drop or just something interesting to happen. Sorry to say that the thing just limps on to the end with uninteresting conversation between uninteresting characters who have no depth. There's not even any friction between the characters that might add to the story. There was bit of getting off with each other towards the end but all a bit lame and only helped to re-enforce the tweeness. I'm trying to find something positive to say about this movie but at the moment I'm just a bit too irritated at wasting 1½ hours of my time watching it. This may be for you if you are looking for an unchallenging film, where everyone is nice to each other, nothing nasty happens, there's a bit of slushy stuff and a happy ending. Perhaps middle-class Americans are able to relate to the characters and find hidden depths that just went straight over my head.
"Eight close friends soak up their last day of summer together on the beach before parting ways for college."This must be the longest day of the year because it seems like it will never end. Summer 8 it is like a porn movie without the action part.It's a long day at the beach that moves too slow. The sun is still high in the sky and you can't see the moment for it to end. The script is too trashy, weak and obscene. Nonetheless, i have to congratulate the cinematographer work making not only beautiful images but more important than that is appropriate images.
If this was about two or three out of the eight trying to reach a benchmark before college, that could have been feasible, but all eight? That's simply contrived.The film plays out like a feature-length Beach Boys ode to youth, but has an awareness of what's happening that people usually don't grasp until long after the time has passed.Shame, really, the cast is appealing and seems up to the task of a lighthearted last-day-before-college day at the beach, maybe some sexual intrigue, maybe a regret or two; but these are eight actors tasked with playing one role. This film could have been about them realizing just how divergent their personalities are, now that high school is behind them.
