A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
This movie captures the essence of what it means to have a disorder undiagnosed and having to go to multiple doctors for multiple opinions never trust one doctor very good movie would watch again
Don't waste your time. The acting was bad and the story wasn't very exciting. It's based on a true story but the character exposition did not make me care about the story at all.
I usually don't comment on movies but this movie seems to have made an impact on lot of lives including doctor's. Her Book has actually helped people who has this disease. Great movie. Great acting.
In having watched this film, it is difficult for me to understand some of the low ratings I have seen. This film drew me in completely from beginnng to end. Having worked in a psychiatric hospital as a pastoral counselor, the aim is to always look for an avenue, any avenue, that will lead a person back to wellness. For many, unfortunately this avenue is never found. This is a hopeful film reminding professionals especially to not give up and keep searching. Knowing the devestation caused by mental illness, it is very uplifting to know the real life individual, superbly played by Chloë Grace Moretz, found her way out of the woods. This is a must see film.
