One Day (2024)

I don't understand this story
22 April 2024
My friend urged me to watch this. It is so beautiful and real and emotional, she said. I guess I just don't get it? The two leads have no chemistry, I didn't believe they were best friends, or whatever they were. The relationship felt really forced, they have nothing in common, it doesn't even feel like there's an emotional connection. Yet they miss each other? They kiss and then call themselves 'friends'? I know sometimes romances build up over time, but how annoying is this build-up? Their conversations feel cliche and the way they flirt is so painfully cliche as well. I know this is based on a book, but come on: let's go on a vacation in Greece and share the same bed, and then nothing happens. The RULES forbid it. How childish and unrealistic is that? Who would go on holiday with an old friend you really didn't know well and you haven't seen in a while? Especially a male/female friendship. Some people said it gets better in the 3 last episodes. Well, even the end was not great. I didn't relate to the characters, I didn't feel any sympathy. I think this series is a bit overrated. Sorry.
