Un jour

One of the best things I've seen in a while , Binged it over the weekend, brilliantly acted , their magnetic chemistry pulls you in and makes you feel as though you were right there with them. And with a soundtrack so sublime , it had me laughing, weeping and smiling, with a perfect level of nostalgia and incredible acting that makes you binge in the entire show in one sitting. Love how they portray friendship and love and the end is absolutely as heart-breaking as in the film and book. One of those shows that will stay with you for a while after it's finished. Just brilliant.

If you like depth, if you like love, just watch it.

I haven't read the book, but I did watch the film when it came out and while I loved that, I enjoyed watching the series as well. I felt like they've shown us a bit more of Emma and Dex's moments that weren't really there in the movie (probably because of the time constraint). The story will obviously be the same as the movie because they're both based on the same book, but the series does have some extra scenes that weren't in the film. I also thought both actors had great chemistry, not sure why the other reviews didn't think so, but I could feel the attraction and tension between them as well as the beautiful friendship the characters share. My heart did break for them too; this story gets so real and relatable in so many parts, which is why I love it so much.

I've seen the male lead playing a very different character in the White Lotus, so it was nice to see how he pulled off this role so well too. I did not like Dexter as much in the movie, but in the series, your heart goes out to him. Excellent performance by Leo Woodall. Also, he's very good looking. The female lead was great too, could see the yearning and longing in her eyes.

There's hardly any bittersweet and beautiful romantic content being made anymore, so I was thrilled that they made this series. Give it a shot, it's lovely!

I'll admit that at first, I agreed with some of the other reviewers about lack of chemistry with the leads. In my opinion, the series started out a bit disjointed and choppy. A few of the early/middle episodes too. But the last third of the episodes really are what made me connect more. Emma had gone from least favorite to favorite and I was really surprised. Her development really flourishes throughout. I'm glad I stuck with it because the ending really was impactful. I binged this series in one day and I enjoyed being wrapped up in these characters lives. It was a beautiful and fun escape with so much of real life represented. Great series.

Wow - the story of One Day was finally adapted in a way that truly captured the spirit of the book, and in some ways excelled it. I read One Day after graduating many years ago, I was really touched by the story. The film was ok but didn't do the story justice for me. Who knew what I really wanted (and needed) was this limited series format.

This was beautifully done. It captured the spirit of love, life, heartbreak, the enuui and challenges of life. I watched this over 3 days, though if I didn't work full time - I would have binged it in one day. That being said - I think it's best to watch it in parts, because this show captures the different chapters of life and how they intertwine to make one's person's life so beautiful. I could imagine it would be even more intense if I watched it in one day.

Watching One Day reminded me that life can be heartbreaking, lovely, exciting, thrilling, scary, but most importantly wonderful and adventurous, especially if you are willing to take a risk when it comes to love. In the way Dexter and Emma finally meet on the penultimate day at the end of university, just before their graduation, and have a significant impact on each other's life indefinitely- loving each other throughout the years as friends, both near and from afar, weaving through the different chapters of life and growing up and trying to figure out life and the purpose of it.... As well as finding one's function (in layman's term: work that suits you), I think we all know that love is the most important thing that gives our lives meaning - and that love comes in so many forms - whether it's familial, romantic, friendship.

There are so many moments that touched me when watching this show. I have been on an emotional rollercoaster and have the empty boxes of tissue as proof! The acting from the main leads who portrayed Emma and Dexter was superb, and the supporting cast were fantastic too - a special shout out to the actors who played Dexter's mum and dad, Tilly, Ian, and Sylvie. Truly, the whole cast was superb and the show captured significant moments of life through the lens of one day - because really, everything in all of our lives happens in one day, as all we ever have is today, some days can be monotonous and some can be significant in a positive or negative way.

The show will take you on an existential journey - it's definitely taken me on one. I will also be fishing out my book to read (or purchasing it again if I have lost my copy). Thank you for this gem of a show...I will definitely rewatch again, but only when I am ready to get back on the emotional rollercoaster.

When I saw this title on Netflix I thought "One Day" sounded familiar. It reminded me of this Anne Hathaway film I've never watched but I've seen in passing a million times over the past 10+ years. Lo and behold, the two are based on the same novel.

Coming into it blind, I was not expecting to be as blown away as I was. Seriously, I ended up binge watching the entire series in one sitting yesterday. I can't sing enough praises about it. The story is beautiful and touching. Ambika Mod and Leo Woodall were spectacular, especially Leo Woodall. After making me shed tears I didn't know existed and (parasocially) fall in love with Dex myself, I am such a fan of Leo and his acting now. I felt just about every emotion possible, in the best way possible.

It's made clear early on that when Emma and Dex meet they come from very, very different worlds. Personally, I think casting Ambika Mod was a brilliant move; not only was her acting amazing, but also I think casting a POC as Emma added a whole other layer to the differences between the two and the beauty of their love story that I wouldn't think achievable in the 2011 movie version with Anne Hathaway playing Emma (I should also add I've never read the novel. So, I'm uncertain if Emma was presented as a POC in the book, but if she wasn't, I truly can't imagine it being meant to be any other way). Mod and Woodall have chemistry that is off the Richter scale, and if you're reading this, yes, you should go watch it right now if you have not already!
