Slight and familiar but sweet enough for Saturday night, Before We Go is the umpteenth re-up of Brief Encounter, not that there's anything wrong with that.
Despite the charismatic nature of both the leads, Before We Go is a light affair that never really does more than scratch the surface of their characters.
The film is very much what you would expect from a movie directed by Captain America. It's old-fashioned, a little corny, and almost impossible to resist.
While this kind of tale is a fantasy for the movies, with an emphasis on realism in style and deliberately paced story, "Before We Go" suggests that it really can happen, even just for a fleeting moment.
