Sadly Over-hyped
Highly Overrated But Still Good
Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
This is the feel good movie you've been searching for. In all seriousness, I didn't know what to expect but went to see it with an open mind. It's written and constructed nicely. Believable characters in real life situations that I found easy to connect with and believe. The actors themselves brought it and I found myself cheering not just for the lead which was a little surprising but refreshing. Their journey isn't pretty but then life isn't, but you'll smile in the end!
This film drew my attention because it included one of my favorite actresses (Melissa McBride). I wasn't sure what to expect from this indie film, beyond her known talent, but I was blown away and cannot wait to see it again.How to describe it with no spoilers? It's unlike any other story I have ever seen and it goes to unexpected places. I have discussed it with others who have seen it and respectfully disagree with critiques that certain characters or situations seem "unrealistic", as I have known people like those characters in my life. So it's likely that one's mileage will vary depending on their own life experiences but I would definitely give it 10 stars.
