Looks That Kill

With that being said I really liked the concept of this movie. I've only seen the first season of 13 reasons why so I haven't see a lot of Flynn in anything to know a lot about his acting. The movie started off quite dark and I was thinking it would be more drama then comedy however it quickly switched gears to be a comedy. I thought it might be some super dark comedy but instead it was just some average teen romance movie with a weird quirk in it. Flynn and his co star do an alright job but the movie doesn't really give them a lot to do. They kind of just walk around a lot.

My main problem with this movie is plausibility. Max (Flynn's character) kills anybody that sees his face. But he has lived his whole life without being arrested, and someone doctors or scientists aren't trying to run tests on him? As well as the fact that the whole seeing his face thing is never explained. Realistically for a lot of the movie only his nose and forehead are covered. What counts as seeing his face? Could he wear one bandage around His noise and have it count? It's just never really explained, which I wouldn't mind if the movie didn't put so much emphasis on the fact he has such a hard time making friends cause nobody wants to be around him.

Overall, it's an alright cheesy movie. Right up my friend Kiz's alley but it didn't blow me away. The last 30 minutes are also pretty slow.

This is a quirky little movie that seems like it's gonna be super light hearted and fun YA ride, but as the story moves along and you connect with the characters, Director Kellen Moore really hits the emotion button hard and packs in a surprising amount of heart into the final chapters of the film. Really enjoyed the watch!

This film turned out to be better than I expected. Although it is far from perfect and has some problems, I absolutely love the characters and the fresh twist of humour. It is a refreshing film that is very different from the others. I love the ending and felt the overall message was conveyed very well. I've rated this film a little higher than what I would have normally given it, but because of it's refreshing concept and good writing (more so for the characters but the plot is also very good) it has earned itself an 8/10.

Was caught by surprise by this one. Looking at the poster I went in thinking it was gonna a broad teen comedy, and although the movie does have some lighthearted comedy to it (mainly from the supporting characters) the overall direction of the movie is actually quite dramatic despite its apparent lighthearted subject matter. It took me a second to catch-on, but luckily the two leads (Flynn and Telles) are truly very strong and carry the dramatic moments with ease. The script is very clever in how it takes an absurd concept of a Boy who can kill people with his looks, and uses that to explore seriously dramatic undertones of death with dignity; it's a super thin-line to walk, but first time director Kellen Moore straddles the line between absurdity and drama very well in my opinion. Overall Moore creates a fun world filled with a wide variety of unusual characters, but don't let the poster fool you, this is more of a drama than a comedy.

Honestly had low expectations but really enjoyed this film Funny , sad and sweet Really good performances by the cast
