Send confirmation emailI was looking forward to seeing John Krasinski's work, as I'm a huge fan of his, but I unfortunately did not enjoy IF. It felt difficult to connect with the characters, since many of them received very little screen time, and the movie overall felt very dreary and grim, a far cry from the peppy, upbeat atmosphere of the trailers. I did understand the serious messages about childhood, growing up, and grief that they were trying to convey, but the poor pacing, underdeveloped characters, and confusing plot made these messages less impactful than they could have been.
