Small Town Wisconsin

I just saw this movie and liked it, though it was a bit of a downer at times. It's hard watching someone who can't get their life together even though it means hard consequences will be enforced. Addiction is hard to watch. It was a touching story. Well written, realistic, heartwarming, sad, well executed. You'll go through a spectrum of emotions before the movie ends. Not giving it a 10 because it dragged in parts. Acting was great from everyone. I'm always amazed at the depth of range some child actors can bring to a performance. Being from Wisconsin I liked seeing my state represented. I've driven down lakeshore dr to admire the fancy houses and going to see a brewers game for the first time is an exciting experience. Worth seeing.

It was my privilege to view this amazing film at the equally amazing Rising Sun International Film Festival held at Brick Hall, a classy venue in Garden Paradise Kitakyushu in November 2020. Everyone present absolutely loved the film and raved about it after the screening.Niels Mueller put together a wonderful cast and crew who gelled perfectly to create what could be called a masterpiece. The movie was perfectly paced and deeply touching. Its scenery and score match the story and script beautifully creating a truly wonderful film to watch on the big screen. Thank you to the creators of this film and the festival that screened it.

You know how you feel when you finish the last page of a beloved book and you're so sad you have to part ways with the characters? That's how you'll feel as the credits roll for Small Town Wisconsin. This beautiful film invites you so personally into the fully relatable lives of each incredibly well-developed character you'll quickly feel you've known them your whole life. Maybe you have? And as you travel across Wisconsin you're emotions are along for the ride including carefully woven and marvelously executed (bravo/brava cast!) and nuanced humor to balance the raw poignancy of this tale. This is one that lingers with you for days until you can't help but re-watch. I'd love to see a sequel...

Amazing job by director Niels Mueller! The film does homage to small mid-western cities and masterfully portrays real life family struggles. Fabulous film!

Did that come from? This is comedy drama on socialrealismic realms, a road trip from small town wisconsin to the big city sitting by the ''ocean''-side, and milwaukee its called, as a last attempt or try to revive his own childrens memories, and showing his so ,soon to be taken away from him due to a divorce battle, the glory of hallelujah down the drain of the beerbottle.

This movie are one of the most manic depressive golden nugget of a gemstone riding down the gloryhole, to show his son the biggest games of all , namely a good old ball match. Its such a sad story with so many witty twists, the small cast of actors is just marvelous, the best of them all is the dads buddy chuck, he is doing oscar worthy stuff on the big white carpet.

So if you like socialrealism , alcoholis, custodians, adultry, wake up moments and a whole lot of love from a breezy mindset of a redneck mechanic and his family, watch ''smalltown wisconsin'', the best of its genre this fiscal year. A recommend from the grumpy old man.
