Only if you watched After Sunrise.

Rating: 5/10 (23 January 2011)

Before you read this, you must know I'm saying all of the stuff under the circumstance that I DIDN'T WATCH AFTER SUNRISE.
To be honest, I couldn't enjoy the movie at all. I seems to me this movie was all about just two people who happen to meet after 9 years of separation and have some conversations about their life which is not so interesting for other people.
Perphaps you might say Ethan Hawke's acting was very realistic in this movie and actually some part of me admit it, but at the same time it seems to me his acting was so awkward in very bad way, and as quite many people mentioned he looks absolutely terrible in this film.
Nevertheless, considering a bunch of people praise the movie and only a few put negative comments, it might be just because I'm an amateur movie fan who couldn't enjoy the movie and catch the true meaning or beauty of the story yet. Therefore, I'm not gonna say it's a bad movie, I just suggest you to watch After Sunrise before you watch Before Sunset.
