Get Big (2017)
Inspired by somewhat true events, "Get Big" follows the misadventures of two friends as they reconnect to attend a high school classmate's wedding. Alec is the charming troublemaker, while Nate provides the neurotic and awkward foil to his friend's unpredictable antics. "Get Big" takes place over the course of a crazy 24-hour period during which Alec and Nate cross paths with oddball cops, curmudgeonly neighbors, drug dealers, psychopaths, escorts and pretty girls, all while the clock ticks down their classmate's big moment.

Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Not often do you see a film that makes you laugh, laugh some more, giggle, chuckle, think and contemplate life! A truly amazing film that is based in honesty and humor. Everyone will find something to enjoy and resonate with in this film. It goes right to the core of human nature, becoming a viable person and making mistakes along the way. Run, don't walk to see this film. Truly a holiday reward!
This movie was nuts... if I ever met someone like Ernie Wolf (Grossman), I'm sure I'd act the same way that Nate (Moran) did. I knew so many guys like Alec (Stine), so I'd say that this film was accurate in regard to how this alcohol/cannabis driven age group behaves. The underlying themes of friendship (romantic and platonic) were portrayed realistically. The dialogue between Alec & Nate was light-hearted and intense. It touched on the volatile emotions that churn within young people. Great film, especially considering that this is a debut. I'm excited for the next film and I hope some of the same actors are along for the ride!!
This film felt real in the way it was shot. There aren't Hollywood explosions, just a realistic version of a simple day gone wrong. After you see it, you realize that there was great character development and cinematography. The story centers around two friends from high school. Nate is a college fraternity member and Alec, his friend, is stuck in his home town still up to his crazy antics. The contradictory views of the two friends during the day make for great tension and comedy. Alec serves as a catalyst for the chaos which ensues. Hilarious! I highly recommend for both casual movie goers and people interested in new talent (the acting was great too). Trivia: Dylan Moran acted in, wrote, and directed this film! Get Big and Go Green. 🍺🐲
I truly laughed my way through this hilarious movie. It all took place in a day where you truly get caught up in their adventures and misadventures. This movie is a riot but also has a lot of heart. The characters are relatable and are perfectly cast. I predict this movie will become a hit in the category of Superbad. Definitely worth seeing.
