It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
I can't offer this movie 10 stars simply because I've seen better in my life... BUT! THANK GOD FOR THIS DIRECTOR OR WHOEVER THOUGHT ABOUT BABY(just born) RUFUS! GREAT JOB! THIS IS ONE OF THE MOVIES WHERE THEY KNOW HOW ON EARTH REAL BABIES LOOK LIKE!!! In the part where they show Rufus birth, their baby looks perfect, just out of his momma woosha!!!!! I mean that baby really looks like he was just born! ffs.
This movie has had such a big impact on my life. I just can't explain how good the story. The acting is amazing too. Good choice of music too. The end of the movie is the best part. This is the best movie I have ever seen that is in a other language than English. Sorry for my bad English (I'm from Norway)
You will know the entire movie when you read the introduction which is: "Samuel is 16 and has a passion for skateboarding. He has big dreams: going to university, move to California, and travel, but things change when he meets Alice, who could be the girl of his life." Now the 'spoiler' is that Alice becomes pregnant from Samuel. The rest you can fill in with cliché moments such as the dilemma to have an abortion or to keep it. Because the movie is about 1.38.00 min long you already know which choice she makes. Moreover, the acting is OK but some of the casting is unconvincing because for some reason Samuel only has really pretty girlfriends/F*** buddies/???. The latter part of the movie is a fast forward and can also be perceived as unconvincing or unrealistic. Sometimes it comes across as a semi-comedy which is bad because i think that the topic of this movie (teenage pregnancy) is too serious and significant to portray it in a romantic manner. To conclude, this might be an entertaining movie if you are younger than 18, but if you are currently at Uni or have a job you know that this is a severe oversimplification of reality.
