Before You Know It

The movie is about a lot of things. And for me, Jen Tullock's character was a lot to take for the first hour - but that is just the author's point. Ultimately, this film had a lovely setting and very fine actors and an original story. Well worth watching.

BEFORE YOU KNOW IT is not the sort of film that's for everyone. And that's actually sort of what made it stand out to me. While I liked it, I know that for most it will be more of a "love it or hate it" type of thing.

It's a unique story, wonderfully acted and powerfully directed. The cinematography is great. There are a few moments that I didn't particularly care for, but overall I enjoyed it. Recommend.

The directorial debut of Hannah Pearl Utt is sincere and enjoyable. While there are some issues with pacing and consistency in mood, I found each story in the film to be interesting and important. The subtle and thoughtful acting and storytelling won't be for everyone but this is a quiet and thoughtful film that deserves consideration. I look forward to future films from the young director!

Was expecting some form of comedy / drama when watching this, but just got drama. That's fine and this film is reasonably OK for a drama. BUT, the comedy bit was missing. Did they forget to put it in? It's categorized as a comedy / drama.

Who knows?

Anyway, if you do watch this, expect drama and don't expect laughs.

I'm not sure what I was expecting. I guess I was expecting it to be great. It was a little disappointing. It seemed like a movie written by actors, for actors. The characters were a bit quirky, but not much different than those I've seen many times before. And none of them were particularly likable. In fact, most of them were a bit on the annoying side. And the story was merely so so. Again, I'm not saying it was a bad movie, just not anything to write home about. I think one of the worst things about doing movie reviews on IMDB is that you're required to write 600 words. Or is it characters? There! I'm done!
