Don't Worry Baby

I liked the way the story was going and seemed like I would enjoy the movie, however, The camera constantly shakes throughout the movie. In the beginning I tried to ignore the shaking. But the unsteady camera meant that I could not connect with the characters. Acting was fine, story may have been fine. The camera is so shaky that it makes Cloverfied appear to have been shot with a steady camera.

Most of the shots are close and personal. So why the shaky camera? Surely, a tripod is not that expensive? The camera man is not having to run with the characters or anything like that. So what is the need for a shaky hand-held camera cinematography? I was compelled to stop watching after 20 minutes, which is a shame because every other aspect of this movie was probably good.

Is this movie worth watching?

No. It's as dry as a bone.

Characters are one-dimensional.

There is nothing really positive about them. Just living, decaying, stagnating.

No one is growing.

It was terrible watching this movie.

Kind of like torture.

Everyone's negative, weak, selfish, underachieving and pathetic.

Nothing is happening but that is *ok*. As long as characters and dialogue are sharp, it would have been passable. Unfortunately it is not.

Skip is my opinion.

I saw this movie at the Beloit International Film Festival in Beloit, Wisconsin. It was the first of two movies I was going to see and had a vague idea of what to expect. I thought it was going to be some kind of raunchy comedy based on what I knew about the plot. I was completely wrong.

This movie tugged at my heart strings on more than one occasion and did a great job of showing relationships between family and what the word family truly means.

The cast was all terrific and the writing was really well done. At times, it felt like the comedy didn't always work, but when it did, it was terrific.

Don't Worry Baby reminded me a lot of the movie Beginners in the way it was shot and made, but that's not a bad thing. It worked all the better for it.

All in all, Don't Worry Baby found just the right mix of comedy and drama, had great chemistry between the leads and supporting cast, and was a beautifully shot movie. I'm hoping it gets a wide release so I can see it again and so all of you can enjoy it too.

8/10

The movie was absolutely gutter. Had no realistic sense to it. Characters were from walking dead. Movie is long for no reason at all. We have no idea why this movie is made and what is the point of this movie really? DO NOT... JUST D NOT WATCH THIS !!!!!!

Hilarious and fun dark comedy, worth multiple viewings. Production off the charts, and one of the best Indie films I've ever seen!
