About Scout (2015)

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Just perfect...

Instant Favorite.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Looks like I'm in disagreement with the other reviewers so far on the site, as I found this indie rang false with me pretty much from start to finish. India Ennenga and James Frecheville have good screen presence in their lead roles here, and there are some endearing moments along the way. However, to me, I just thought the plot elements were absurd, the dialogue weak, the characters surfacy, and the movie just left me with a pervasive sadness and hollow feeling. There are plenty of name actors in supporting roles in the film, but they can only do so much with the stilted and lifeless script.Overall, I just couldn't buy into what this indie was "selling", although I see the movie struck others quite differently.

A sweet little flick with likable characters! And some big names - Danny Glover, Ellen Burstyn, Nikki Reed and Jane Seymour. This is more a story of a young independent minded girl full of courage; and not rebellion as the description claims.Here's the setup - Scout & Lulu are sisters with quite a few years difference in their age. Scout is a teenager and Lulu is still a very young child and both live with their sickly grandmother. Scout & Lulu are very close. Their carnie ne'er-do-well father shows up one day and takes Lulu away with him. In the meantime Scout has befriended an emotionally damaged young man who is a resident in a very posh psychiatric hospital and dealing with his suicidal thoughts. These two decide to go on the road to get Lulu away from the father.This is a fine road movie with mostly unbelievable characters but the performances by the actors bring these characters to life which makes for a good story and a nice movie. Of course there is sorrow, loss and happiness along the way. It's well worth watching for light entertainment!

This movie was filmed at a house I was renting in Bakersfield south of downtown. I allowed them to film the scenes of the grandmothers house and even some of my little sister's drawings were used in the movie. Everyone from the production crew was very nice and even allowed us to walk around and see how they transformed our house into the grandmothers house. The literally took everything out and put in what looked like vintage furniture. I thought about looking for the movie and I remembered the production lady told me the name of the movie would be "scout". She then also told me that Ellen Burstyn would be in it and would be the one doing some scenes at my house. I was then very excited because Requiem for a dream is one of my all time favorite movies and couldn't believe she would be there. I would really like to watch this movie. Please tell me how I can watch it alsrocket

This is a charming 'Road Movie' about a girl trying to keep her 'family' together. Great performances by Onata Aprile and India Ennega. Danny Glover was strong as a supporting actor as was Ellen Burstyn, Nikki Reed and Jane Seymour. India Ennega's star role as Scout takes her through situations most teen actors could not embody. She breaks the law in the desperate need to 're-claim' her sister. She is bold and determined but still shows a vulnerable side to her character. Young Onata Aprile is also amazing as Scout's young sister. Danny Glover plays a believable 'bounty-hunter with a true heart of gold. Jane Seymour in a role as a not so nice mother was a the first time I can remember that she doesn't play a perfectly nice person. This movie is a delightful exploration into human behavior.
