The could've been and the what ifs.

Maybe Today is a medium-paced movie about a realist who risked it all for his idealist crush. It's mildly melancholic and makes you think about the what-ifs.

I feel sombre after finishing this movie. Things could've gone differently if only the characters were courageous to follow their heart. I feel annoyed at Harold and AM, but I understand why neither took their chance.

I enjoyed the movie. It is engaging, and the plot is easy to follow. The storyline is simple, and it focuses on the main characters. It doesn't stray from their relationship development. There is character development, but it takes a while to arise because it happens at the end. The acting is superb, and the cast is proficient at exuding emotions with their eyes. You can see in Harold's eyes that he's fond of AM and yearn for her.

However, I feel like the movie could've done better. It could've shown us how the band struggled to make it in the music industry. Most of the time, the scenes only tell us that the band isn't getting any gigs. I would love to see how AM contacted her labels and how the band received rejections. After all, music is a significant component of the movie.

There's nothing special about this movie. It's a filler movie, but I recommend it to people looking for a sad-toned watch that isn't too heavy.
