IN YOUR EYES [2014]

In Your Eyes is a delightful romantic fantasy from director Brin Hill and written by some guy called Joss Whedon.
A young woman and man, living on different sides of the country, have a connection by being able to see through each other's eyes which leads to feelings and choices they never thought they'd make.  The film starts off with a lot of promise, mostly thanks to the warmly charismatic leads and Whedon's clever dialogue but it soon falls short about half-way through as it steps into the genre's usual tropes.
Still, it's a fine film that is incredibly cute, occasionally quite funny, flavored with just a hint of melancholy and generally harmless all around.
