My favorite edition of the cake was when Olly made a fake IV for it. One of my favorite parts of the movie was toward the beginning, when Olly takes his mom’s Bundt cakes and keeps placing it on the windowsill for Madeline. His looks definitely don’t hurt him either! I saw Everything, Everything with my sister, who I read the book alongside with back in 2015, and she swears that Nick is a mix of Ansel Elgort and Shawn Mendes!. I absolutely loved Nick Robinson as Olly! I think he fit the role perfectly, and I’m so excited to see Nick in future roles. I also enjoyed seeing her growing addiction to Modcloth, it just made her feel so much more real.
I loved seeing all of her books scattered around her bedroom and office, and it was so fun to see her work on her book blog. She was exactly how I pictured Madeline when I read Everything, Everything. **Warning: This review will contain spoilers for the film and book, Everything, Everything.Īmandla Stenberg was the perfect Madeline. Madeline is played by Amandla Stenberg, with Nick Robinson playing Olly. She’s forced to question how she can spend a life inside when there’s a person and a whole world waiting for her. Madeline is somewhat content on spending life indoors, until Olly moves in next door.
While I still think the book was better (as I often do), I do recommend this movie as well.The film adaptation of Nicola Yoon’s Everything, Everything was released in the United States on May 19 th, and I was lucky enough to see the movie during its opening weekend! The film and book follows eighteen-year old Madeline, who has an illness that prevents her from ever going outside. The actors were wonderful in their respective parts, Amandla Stenberg as Maddy (you might recognize her as Rue from The Hunger Games) and Nick Robinson as Olly. This movie is a cute, fun, yet poignant movie about two teens willing to risk everything for love.
They decide to risk everything to be together, but will it be the end of them? When Olly moves in next door, they start communicating and eventually fall in love. The movie follows 18-year-old Maddy, who is stuck inside her house due to an illness that would cause her to die if she went outside. I’m happy to say that the movie lived up to the book’s reputation. I loved the book so I was skeptical that I would enjoy the movie. This movie is based on a book by Nicola Yoon which I reviewed last year.
