Like Sunday, Like Rain (2014)

People are voting emotionally.

Let's be realistic.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

This movie is very slow, if you don't have any passion dont try to watch this movie. They have so many conflict, but not all of the confilct solved. The bonding between Eleanor and Reggie were so slow but at the end so good. My tears almost fall to saw that Reggie hurts of goodbye. After all, this is good but not must watch

I almost turned this off after the first 15 minutes. There was some truly horrible acting, primarily from bit parts, but the story soon focuses on the Nanny (Eleanor, played by Leighton Meester) and the boy (Reggie, played by Julian Shatkin), and things begin to improve. It also took a while for young Julian Shatkin to grow on me, but eventually his nearly emotionless portrayal opens up with more facial expression and age appropriate gestures. He seems to take on more personality as the chemistry between him and Ms. Meester grows. The acting continues to be unbalanced, mostly when Reggie is acting so precocious, which is when lines are delivered with the least emotion.My biggest complaint about the movie is that the cello scenes weren't staged better. Mr. Shatkin shouldn't bear the weight of portraying a "cello prodigy" in those scenes since he doesn't play the cello. The music is described as "beautiful" in the dialogue, but I don't see it. In one scene the camera stays on Eleanor as she ascends a flight of stairs with music in the soundtrack, but there is no shot of Reggie playing. For all we know, she's just exploring the house, not following the "beautiful" sound of the boy playing. How about some close ups of a cello being played well, by a real cello player with young hands?

You know some movies just give you shivers, because they are amazing. Well, this movie is far more than amazing. It's extraordinary! It's unbelievable how music can charm you. After watching this movie I am just sitting there in my chair and thinking which movie can be better? Which movie can release your feelings more? Which movie is so beautiful that you can cry of happiness? After being fired and braking up with her boyfriend the 23 years old Eleanor has no idea what to do with her live. Until, she gets the chance to become a nanny for a rich family in the upper West side of New York. There she is supposed to take care of the genius twelve year old boy named Reggie. But quickly the roles switch. Reggie takes care of Eleanor and an unlikely friendship arises. Through the film you will directly be in sympathy with both Reggie and Eleanor. And at least you can enjoy the beautiful soundtrack produced by Ed Harcourt.

A protagonist/antagonist tale of a precocious young man whose intelligence and wealth makes it easy to manipulate all about him for his own convenience (albeit mostly positive); butts heads with his new nanny who, of course, is polar opposite and predictably they both compromise (well one more than the other) to make a predictable but enjoyable journey.Casting and subsequent acting first rate. Dialogue appropriate to the roles was outstanding and naturalistically convincing.Ending, however, was not convincing or challenging. Nanny was in a situation where the resources would have opened many windows of opportunity, so her decision did not jibe with her situational intelligence. A more creative ending would have been a subway (or equivalent) playing duet possibly as a foothold to greater things. Additionally, the young man could have learned to use his skills to help his classmates and even the teacher, and later, others as well. The nanny also had the resources to be selfless and be a positive changer.
