    Lacks intensity

    I found it quite boring. There is no real story arc, it just goes on and on without anything really happening except sentimental dialogue. Also, the romance between the two leads has zero intensity and the girl is just kind of plain looking and boring as a character. You don't even really know why the guy likes her. I wasn't feeling the spark at all. It's not that the movie is badly made or the actors are bad, there's just something is missing.
