Weightless

Did the director go to art school and make this film all fancy just to try an avoid making an actual film worth watching? Seriously they skip so much stuff that could have helped the story and instead used visual camera tricks to progress the story. The father is a loser and the way this story is presented he remains a loser so what's the point?

Seemed to be alittle long winded. I guess I just dont get the artsy films that use silent expression for everything they are trying to convey. I think straight forward films are better. Instead of showing me a kid sitting by the lake with clouds, show me what the parent if doing to make him or help him lose the weight. This film leaves me more questions then answers as I still dont understand how he got up to 250 pounds. I guess it doesnt matter what happen but I go back to what why it happen.Also why do they have to make the father Joel so inept and then they made everyone around him way smarter in contrast. If this was filmed in a reverse lense i.e the father Joel being black and the doctor being white. We as the public would only hear the cries of racism, yet there is a role reversal so it's ok that this is happening.

Most people will miss the power message in this touching film. It forces you to feel and think with an open heart. I watch the ending scene over and over again and it brings tears to my eyes every time. Please make more films like this it's a rare gem and I loved it. Life is not perfect and we all struggle at times and at the end of the day all we can do is try to make the best with what we have.

In Weightless, director Jaron Albertin creates a unique world that makes the viewer feel deeply for the characters within. This is seriously worth the watch.

I agree with the comment I saw; trying to be too artsy so wonder what is the point of the film. If you're trying to be so creative that you actually don't even get the point. What does the ending mean? they were having fun together but he still going to get taken away? I don't agree with the comment that make him seem so dumb compared to others. I don't think he seems dumb, he just has issues and some people are dumber, why bring up race? And they kept you in the dark. With his girlfriend they have a talk which you can't hear and then they break up, why? Because he went to work and left his son on his birthday
