One of my all time favorites.
best movie i've ever seen.
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
I think this movie is highly underrated. It's a great movie about growing up in your early to mid twenties. I found it really meaningful. The dad kind of reminded me of my own, and the main character reminded me of myself. If you like indie dramas with a twist then you should try watching this movie and give it a higher rating so that other people try watching it.
Athena (Rose Leslie) lives in LA and wants to be a dancer. She shuns relationships. When her father in Florida calls with the news of cancer, she returns home to Florida after a three year hiatus and gets reacquainted with her father (Ray Liotta) and sister (Carmen Tonry). Her dad, who she calls Jack, has no filter. We get a glimpse of why Athena is how she is.It was an interesting film, funny at times. Athena's issues are basically self imposed, so I never felt for the main character. Decent indie with a certain amount of quirk and humor.Guide: F-word. Sex and nudity (Rose Leslie)
I was expecting something more. When I watched this movie it was rated 8,9(!). I had my doubts, and rightfully so. I would give it 7,5 if I could, tops. I have only a few reflections. 1. The twist is too late. When finally a point is made, I have already given up waiting. This leaves me somewhat annoyed. Like I'm waiting for hours for a break through and when it finally comes, the movie is over. The humor is also a bit dopey and somewhat annoying. Too much, in contrast to the serious theme. Why? And the characters weren't really likable to me. Yet, a sensitive coming of age story, with the hardships pictured of a young adults life. Even though the twist is late, it makes the movie worth watching. My advise is to stay patient.
