La familia que tú eliges

A pure old fashion story , eulogy of freedom and friendship, touching, sweet, nice, honest and adorable. And a beautiful proof of the art of Shia LaBeouf. Short, maybe, a high useful film for remind the deep taste of life in the time of preassures, fears and fake expectations. The axis of film - magnificent Zack Gottsagen.

First things first... Zack Gottsagen is a revelation and he steals the entire movie. His interactions with. Shia LaBeouf are heartwarming, and (rumor has it) often spontaneous and unscripted. Probably the most unusual "buddy film" you will have seen in ages.

The story isn't as dazzling as Zack is, but it's warm and sweet with all the feels. Two "pals" on the run for very different reasons... one pursued by tattooed thugs, the other by his beautiful "jailor." The clashes are predictable, as is the romantic entanglement. But it works, because Zack holds it all together with his charm and innocence.

Shout out to the wonderful Thomas Haden Church, who does a great turn as a gruff retired professional wrestler, with a heart of gold. His scenes with Zack are priceless and it's a pleasure to watch him work.

All in all, it's a cute film if you don't think too hard about the implausibility it all, and just go with the flow.

...or get in your way if you want it hard enough; no matter who or what you are - just go for it, you'll achieve nothing if you don't. Inspirational and heartfelt stuff to be found here in spades, and while those words get overused on far too many occasions they are more than appropriate in describing the courageous and endearing Zak Gottsagen who brings a spark of magic to proceedings. A true role model to all and one to be looked up to and admired in his own right.

A really charming adventure with well developed characters, good performances and a very strong emotional centre. All of the performances are really good, particularly from Zack Gottsagen and Shia LaBeouf, and their characters have enjoyable relationships that leads to a lot of natural humour coming from them. It's nice to see down syndrome representation in films without that big of a deal being made about it. I really like the visual feel of the film - the landscapes are great to look at and the colour palette matches the feel of the film perfectly. Most of my issues are smaller, such as some bad editing, but overall this is a fun and charming film that I would definitely recommend.

This movie completely exceeded my expectations. The story was thoughtful and inspiring. These are the types of movies we need more of
