Person to Person

This is the most perplexing crap I've ever seen. Is it sincere mumblecore or is all the awkwardness due to a poor writing/subpar acting? Definitely has good moments, definitely has terrible moments. I don't know

I can definitely see people being bored with this movie. I've seen a lot of movies like it that fail miserably and are relentlessly boring. This film is different. I liked ALL of the characters. They all carried a distinct persona despite limited screen-time and are very relatable. Each person is layered and genuine, none of whom are wholly good or bad. The humor is subtle yet gratifying and conflicts are handled maturely.

In a sense this movie connects all the disparate parts of the self: the quiet and anxious Abbi, the desperate showoff in Cera, the gloomy brooder in Ray, the arrogant insecure teen in Wendy, the insecure lovestruck teen in Melanie, and the passionate local "hero." Nothing feels forced or contrived. I can definitely see myself watching this many times in the future. I honestly didn't mind the lack of action and drama because I just wanted to sit with each character.

I can assure you I'm not a paid shill either. This movie isn't for everyone, but if you give it a chance I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

The actors did good if you look at their individual performances. They're acting and presentation of their roles is really nice but it was all let down by a very weak story.

I felt that the makers of Person to person tried too hard to make an anthology (?) which would be super plain and blow people's minds....but they missed.

I don't know what it takes to make a good anthology movie because I'm not a writer or director but this isn't it.

I started watching for the actors and finished it for them too. The story doesn't have the strength to keep you hooked.

Some bland and simple movies make you feel human and that's what was unsuccessfully attempted with person to person.

This movie made me laugh, has great, memorable characters and a terrific Michael Cera performance. What more do you want? For the right person, the movie is as simply satisfying as a Sunday morning.

It took me a minute to get on this movie's wavelength, but I started really digging it about halfway through; I think it was the bike chase that ultimately won me over, or maybe it was the progression of the Michael Cera / Abbi Jacobson relationship. Since finishing the film, it's only grown in my estimation. It's a scrappy, messy, funny, quiet, insightful indie comedy that I may still be underrating.
