Imagine you are a 20-something aspiring writer with no inspiration at all, living in Manhattan, and one day you have a chance encounter with a glamorous French woman. Both of you start a love affair. She’s married and can only meet you for hotel room trysts between the hours of 5 and 7. Well, and that’s what this movie is about. Having Anton Yelchin as the young writer Brian and Bérénice Marlohe as the french woman, together they show the fragilities and lessons that we can take from a love affair or love in general. 5 To 7 could be that charming, impossible love story that makes you cry and feel melancholy, but it lacks some passion and chemistry between the cast and story.
