‘Wish You Were Here’ Review: Bring Tissues to Julia Stiles’ Film
Movies that make you cry are still abundant, ranging from “We Live in Time” and “Someone Like You” to “It Ends with Us” and “The Idea of You”. Following the same emotional trajectory (almost like a Kleenex advertisement), you might find yourself shedding tears by the end of “Wish You Were Here”. Its somber title may resonate with romantics (or Pink Floyd fans) as it unfolds. Although it can be overly sentimental and cheesy, the uplifting message this movie aims to convey by the end could be just what you need to stop focusing on minor issues in your love life and instead appreciate what you currently have.
