Welcome to Happiness

You will be ..... rewarded if you watch this with an open mind.

I have never finished watching a movie and been so confused, but at the same time knew exactly what happened.

If you watch this and don't give up on it early you will be pleasantly surprised. For me it was the moral of the story and the way each person learned that kept me intrigued. There was deff quirkyness but it wasn't over bearing and the subtle comedic sub plots were absolutely perfect.

The acting was amazing, plot just perfect and when everything came to a final conclusion I wasn't left wanting more or less. It was just the perfect amount.

7.8.

It was a strangle inventive ride, and at the end I was moved and felt like I learned something.

Welcome to Happiness is about a children's book writer who lives in an interesting apartment. Once in a while, his 1990s printer would go off and a stranger would knock on his door. He would ask the strangers three questions from the printout and if they answered correctly he would lead them to happiness, which the door to happens to be in his bedroom closet, but after 5 years when this guy discovers that happiness is a place in which you can change the one big regret in your life, he becomes disgruntled with the fact that he wasn't given the opportunity to change his one regret.

The movie puts me on a very emotional ride. I relate to the lead character Woody, played by Kyle Gallner. It was a great experience. Kinda like the Matrix, but more down to Earth without the Sci-fi and the Kung fu. It's not a coincidence that Woody is a Children's book Arthur as the movie dishes out the life lesson it that same poise, only it's for adults.

It was a brilliant narrative from beginning to end. The first act I was digging but then it got to a point where I did not like the message the movie was generating, then kaboom! The whole thing was laid out in front of me and I felt it. I can't remember when the last time a movie blew my mind like that.

Plus Keegan-Michael Key is so amusing in his role. This guy is just so entertaining without even trying.

Recommend trying this movie out. I'm not really the type to be enlighten, but It did spark something in me.

Most of the dialogue seems like whispers and you need the sound turned way up, about the highest setting you have. And then the music comes I and knocks you out of your seat. How did it get released in this condition?

Seems like an art film project with good direction and interesting actors.

I can respect a low budget film, but this doesn't feel like that. It just feels lazy. Can't hear what the actors say during many parts of the movie. Some because the "background music" is just too loud, other times it was just recorded way too low. Bad, just bad. I did like the story line but will NEVER watch this again because of how badly it was created. You WILL have to change the volume many, many, many, many times during this show. In fact, just avoid the movie.

I was quite surprised by this film as I wasn't expecting much. I was intrigued from the first scene and found myself anticipating the path we were traveling. I thought the film was very well written, the direction was great as were the cast. Parts of the story were muddied occasionally, but overall it was a very fun movie with interesting, thought provoking scenes and dialogue. I'd definitely recommend it.
