I think two things hurt the movie
The movie was good, but it could've been better. I really think having two actors playing Brian was a bad choice. I think it did a disservice to both actors. If you only had one actor, you would've connected with him more. I think subconsciously it makes it feel like two movies, so it doesn't play as well. I also think having two different points of view (young Brian and Malinda) again doesn't work. Having young Brian's pov, you are drawn into his story. By then cutting to Malinda's pov, you lose that connection. Possibly if older Brian would've been the same actor, you would've had more of a connection.
