Nacho Vigalondo 's latest, Daniela Forever , is a maudlin slog.

The romantic drama centers on a handsome DJ named Nicolás (Crazy Rich Asians' Henry Golding ), who is grieving the death of his girlfriend Daniela ( Beatrice Grannò ).

Daniela Forever seems like the sleep experiment at its center: well intentioned, but more bewildering than illuminating.

When Nicolás needs only to be smooth and charming, Golding excels, but overall, his performance lacks nuance, ranging from flat to false.

The movie was reviewed out its World Premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival .
