Tim Timmerman: Hope of America

Our family enjoyed the movie. It didn't go into dicey territory to get the laughs - but stayed clean and was still really funny. Loved all the throwbacks to the 90's! Good message about the problems of self absorption.

Growing up loving all the 80's teen high school comedies, I was excited to see one that was attempting to capture the magic of a character driven, coming of age romantic comedy, which I feel we haven't seen for a while. Tim Timmerman, Hope of America does just that. Set in the early-mid 90's with all the glorious music, hair styles, fashion, phrases, pop culture references, etc. If you're looking for a fun, light-hearted teen comedy that the whole family can enjoy, I highly recommend Tim Timmerman.

With it's many interesting characters and good writing, this is a fun movie to watch.

While Tim Timmerman borrows some ideas from films like "Ferris Bueller's Day Off", it isn't a simple formulaic script but instead builds on a wide range of characters and sub-plots. Even one nemesis of the main character who only has one spoken line shows up at just the right times throughout the film for great comedic affect.

The production values are also very good for a lower-budget movie. The film was mostly shot at various locations in the community but each was interesting and fit the scene well. The editing and music was professional and unnoticeable which is more than you can ask from most small studio films.

I'll definitely watch it again and will be anticipating other films by the same creators and actors.

In a day of vulgar, gross-out comedies, it's nice to get a clean, wholesome movie that is actually funny. There are some GREAT comedic actors in this movie. The lead, Eddie Perino, is loaded with charm. His best friend, played by Andrew Caldwell, is hilarious. The love interest, played by Chelsea Maidhof, is adorable. And the security guard, Christian Busath, steals every scene he is in. For a low-budget, independent film, this one is well worth your time.

This is a fun throwback to the 90's. Satirically shows the similarities between high school politics and the politics of our day. Highly recommend
