One of those movies you can't stop watching once. This story is drawn in the best possible way. There are reasons to judge Will as meek in choosing euthanasia over accepting his life, but there are many more reasons not to. But he made Clark's life better than ever. And now the last one is dead but alive.

I loved the movie. The small moments between Emily and Sam were just so full of love , care and companionship. The ending was beautiful . But heartbreaking.

This movie is so beatiful! Brings me to tears every single time even though I already know what's going to happen.

I also loved the movie. I haven’t read the book but I can tell that the movie is certainly well made. Both the lead actors bewitched me with their acting. I was really sad at the ending. The movie was both touching and saddening.

I didn't read the book before watching the movie because I didn't know the movie was based on a book before I watched it. I really enjoyed the movie but if I remember correctly it was sad.

I loved both the love story Me Before You and Emilia Clarke. I watched the movie in one breath and then repeated the next day. This never happened to me before with any movie. I could watch it over and over again. I can understand and respect why a person would choose to die instead of living a life full of regrets about what he cannot do anymore. People are different and find different meaning in life. Some people can live a happy life despite disability, others can't.

I loved this movie so much. Even though the ending made me want to curl into a ball and cry, I still loved the whole movie. Their relationship is top tier and all the little details make the movie so cute.

I've seen the movie and liked it, but I thought the ending was too bleak. A disabled person feeling like his life is not worth living anymore and that it's better for him to die so that the one he loves can be happy is... more than a little questionable, and I can't help but wonder how it made disabled people in the audience feel. Maybe some of them felt seen, but others definitely felt like they were being told their existence was a burden. I can't help but think the author could've been much more careful in her portrayal.
