After We Collided (2020)
After We Fell (2021)
After Ever Happy (2022)
Not realizing this was a film series, I️ started watching “After Ever Happy” but it seemed like this film had a deeper story that wasn’t being explained & I️ had just jumped into the middle. So I️ paused & did a little research to find out this film was the fourth in the series. In fact, I️ had reviewed the original “After” in 2019. That’s why the two leads Tessa & Hardin felt familiar. This series was designed for the incurable romantics & soap opera addicts. It’s the ultimate love/hate relationship between the sweet good girl & her bad boy love interest. It’s anger issues, arguing, & tears in between steamy sex scenes set in cars, hot tubs, & bedrooms. Add excessive drinking, suspicions, jealousy, hiding secrets, weddings, a funeral, & infidelity to the drama. It’s a wild rollercoaster ride as these two lovers are so drawn to each other but disaster seems to always tear them apart. These 3 films can be currently seen on Netflix but I️ don’t see a free streaming service for the original. Supposedly there is a fifth in the works because the last film ends with “to be continued”. It’s a train wreck that you can’t look away from. I can’t help but wonder where this is going to end.. happily ever after or crash & burn?
Alien gives them 3 “guilty pleasure drama” stars out of 4.
