If you are looking for a happy ending to the After series...this is it, if you are looking for a good storyline you might be disappointed.

This was almost an entire movie of Hardin brooding! In fact, I thought that maybe they hadn't got the actress who plays Tessa back for the final film...until the end.

The film is ostensibly about Hardin working on himself so he can be worthy of his one true love...but the only thing he does is goes to Portugal to apologize to a girl who he posted a sex tape of without her permission.

The girl in Portugal was lovely, played by Mimi Keene and whose character was named Nathalie. I almost wanted Hardin to just be with her in the gorgeous backdrop of Portugal...but alas I read the books and do still deep down wanted him to mend things with his real true love Tessa.

Landon's wedding was beautiful, so aesthetically it was a gorgeous film and I liked seeing Beniamin Mascolo (from another teen angsty love story). I also appreciated that they brought back so much of the cast to reprise their roles as family and friends.

Not the strongest film in the After series, but necessary. I recommend it to After fans, probably not romantics, but After fans for sure.
