I found this quirky film a gem. It's authentic, not pretentious. The main character is wonderfully portrayed - he's lovable, insufferable, a brat, rude - everything that a teenager can be. His relationships with his friends, co-workers and teachers were so real and not contrived a la Hollywood. Sometimes it goes over the top. Sometimes it's hilarious. It's about the love of movies and teenage dreams of being the next great director. I give it an 8 because it does have a Canadian feel (a positive thing for me) and it's never boring. I'll remember it the next time I go through Aldershot! The ending has a happy resolution - our star is growing up!

Every movie fan would love this movie I know that, (did you no know the feeling of suggesting a friend a movie and they reply with a smile in their face saying that they love it this is how I feel watching this ) I saw alot of myself in him is like watching how my life is but this time on TV, The ending shows how imperfect life can be sometimes, lose your best friend, lose your job, lose your dream project and lose your dream school, that gave you the strength to Keep going and achieve your dreams. My favourite character aside from Lawrence is Alana that women kill it tbh I think I am gonna watch this alot more.

Stony Brook Film Festival. I hate movies like this where they try to make the main character quirky and awkward, but they only come off as entitled, narcissistic, incompetent, mean to others, and screams almost in every scene. I understand this is the intention, so that the character can develop through the course of the movie, but without a positive trait, it is hard to follow him through most of the movie. It's even making me feel bad about my depression. Movies I like that has awkward characters include Mary and Max. In that movie, aside from awkwardness, Max is detail-oriented, logical, and has his own take on the world, which played off nicely with Mary's curiosity. Here, aside from the unlikable traits, we don't see the main character having any other positive traits aside from the one good thing he did for his company, and his love for obvious movies. I am also not a fan of the feminism angle brought up in the middle of the film. I don't think it meshes well with the bildungsroman story of an awkward boy learning to be sociable. If anything, it only made me hate the main character more, which made me hate the movie more. Romina D'Ugo's Alana, however, is the bright spot of the entire movie. I like her energy, her composure, her attitude, and how she delivers her back story. However, I'm writing this review mainly to express how much I hate the "awkward teen" trope when there isn't anything to enjoy about the character. Did I mention the story structure is almost identical to Lady Bird?

Watching this film, I couldn't help but forgive its shortcomings. It was clearly made on a shoestring budget, with unremarkable locations and occasionally amateurish performances. However, the story's universal appeal overshadowed these flaws. As a film lover and someone who struggles with socializing, I found myself deeply moved and able to relate. The film tackles the theme of moving on and growing up, a familiar territory in cinema. Despite lacking groundbreaking elements, it exudes a nostalgic charm that captivates. The writing, direction, and acting are surprisingly strong, which adds to its merit.

This is a charming project in theory, but as the film goes along it becomes harder and harder to like the protagonist. Sure, his dad died, but he's a total jerk to everyone around him without any provocation whatsoever. He should show much more character development much earlier in the movie. Frankly, i understand the type of stress he's going through, but i don't like the stereotype of a mentally ill person behaving chaotically while everyone around them is trying their best to be nice. This is a hollywood stereotype that basically never happens in real life, and the reality is that people don't keep acting like this unless others are bullying/abusing them, and that's really not happening. The film in general would be much better if there were real pressing reasons for him to act these ways, because i don't think leaning on/fetishizing teen angst is a good way for the script to fill itself out. The climax of the film is just a bunch of arguments and bad behavior when it should have been nice, and by the time we get to the uplifting segments. It's too little too late, because the protagonist still has not experienced any character development. The only thing that's changed is his haircut and the people around him, and it's utterly implausible that these pretty girls would be talking to him. This isn't because he's overweight, in fact i think his appearance is generally fine, but his personality in this film is just utter trash.

I stumbled across this movie with the rather stupid title, which rather belies how different and complex it was. The movie is essentially about Lawrence, a complex flawed character, and the issues he faces with his life. Lawrence is rude, unrealistic, doesn't value his best friend Matt, and self centres and uncaring for his mother. But the movie does a great job of following his life, as it unlargely unravels, him losing friends, dealing with his relationship with his mother, and a growing complex relatinshop with his boss at the video store he works at. This is a great little film well worth watching.

Another coming of age movie, nothing sensational here, but I found the characters to be way more likeble then in Lady bird or Funny pages. Amazing detailing for those who pay attention: Canadian lore, movies references, really fitting soundtrack and costumes down to elaborated accessory and so on. But the thing that earned my 9 stars rating is cast acting. Every one of them, even the smallest roles like school teacher or second guy in the Sequels, are real, not boring, not flat, they are interesting to watch! Such a great job! Definitely should take the Best cast in whatever award they have this nomination. Isaiah Lehtinen, Romina D'Ugo and Percy Hynes White amazed me, made me do some revaluation of my youth and "moved me, emotionally, which I think is the highest compliment". That's a lot to get from any movie 👏

Spliff of coming of age story, an highly ad/hd, filmartnerdy student finishing his seniorhigh year without much bravour or success, starts in a job at a videostore, but quelch all and everyone with his unconcentrated, introvert and uncladded way of connectiong to others, they call it a narcissists way of behaviour, search me, havent we all been there when 17 and low on selfconfidence at the same time flying high on the cloud of wish for success... its a kind of egotrip in failureism this plotstory, not much mindlifting , and the comedy that was meant to be drowns in the drama. Mr. Lehtinen has got the witts and vocal talents as of a surtain canadian called john candy(rip), , so work on that, buddyboy. For the rest this film is quite on the average entertainmentwise, it has some guidelines for the nitwit teenagers out there who doesnt know what to do with life, it couldve been an influential movie if the script and the nerves of a daredevilled director had appeared, so its a meeh recommend from the grumpy old man.

If you can get past the first 5 minutes of the film which makes you think you just made a huge mistake, and also get past the opening credits telling you that it's written, directed acted etc. All by the same person (usually not a good sign) and give this little film a chance I think you might be surprised. Entertained even. I was. Story makes sense and moves forward throughout. No huge belly laughs really, but enoyable to watch nonetheless and nostalgic as well. I think the 2 female leads (mom andmanager perfomed the best of the cast, but not complaining about the rest either. It's a (mostly) lighthearted fim That I would give a passing grade.
