Linbeymusol Wonderful character development!
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
bradfordconnolly I laughed quite a bit with the dialog. Prior to viewing the credits my wife figured that Chris had written the script. Having the grandmother, Polly Bergen, tell it like it is was refreshing. To be able to take dementia and put a positive spin was interesting. Allison Janney played the part especially "the look in the mirror" scene with Christina Hendricks.I probably was more captivated due to my familiarity of the cast members from recent television programs.I don't know if the Covair was a metaphor especially being a convertible-open to world. I did curse Ralph Nader.The sound tracked worked some familiar,some fresh and relevant.Overall good quality writing, acting and directing even if a lot of the story line is predictable.
thescribe7 The film encourages me on a personal level. I am a writer and have always been interested in whatever form it may take. Carson is a journalist who wants to have a future outside of this horrid town. In some ways, our main character is a bully. But what I like is that he actually is right on his views. His blackmailing people might be questionable but he makes the point that people stop believing in their dreams. This guy might be a dick but he believes in something. Think about how clichéd we can get in school. This guy rants and makes them feel it. I can relate to wanting all the stupidity around me to stop. And look, at least, you can tell why this guy is a dick. Just look at his parents! One need not look further. His point on ideas and where they come from is especially something that I think could be touched on little bit more both in this film and all films really. But this has the right feel and moral and outlook on life that I would love to see more people take seriously.
vitadrottningen This movie was more than great. I can't really explain. It seemed strange in the beginning but then it all cleared. I'm a teenager myself and it's easy to feel what Criss want's me to feel. A quote from movie that really changed me, I think is "The thing i regret the most is waiting for life to begin". The reason why it made think a lot is because I do that. I wait for life begin. I don't live now, I wait say "when I get older I will..". But life is short and you can die in most unexpected ways ever. So from now on I will try to live and not wait for life to begin.This movie really changed me, I really think.
shalaunn This Movie was Horrible, (read entire review) the ending made me cry non stop. my bf thought one of my family members died. I Really loved this movie I haven't cried that much from a movie since watching Les miserables. I was kidding about it being horrible. 2 thumbs up. absolutely fantastic. And as a Glee fan I loved seeing Chris Colfer be this smart ass writer. And Rebel Wilson Fantastic as always. But seriously I'm still sobbing as i write this. I knew he died in the beginning but after watching the sequence of events that lead up to it, I was heart broken. When Carson's(Chris Colfer) mother called his phone repeatedly after the news of his death i yelled at the screen telling her to stop. because it was too painful for her to call and get no response time after time. Devastating lost
