Fishbowl California

This is little doubt that the actors in this movie put on an excellent performance despite the poor and contrived plot line. There was a story here about life and death, being down and out, and purpose but it was so contrived, stereotypical and unnecessarily unbelievable that the message was lost. Rodney was in foster care...really? Is that what led to his homelessness? Give me a break.

This is a heartfelt, charming indie dramedy that is anything but indie. It feels like a blockbuster with a story that is smart and filled with witty humour, genuine moments and some very relatable themes and perspectives. The outstanding direction creates an engaging atmosphere paired with some phenomenal and charismatic performances that prove this is that one fish in the sea. It is one of the big indie hits of 2018.

For fans of Judd Apatow and Greta Gerwig style dramedy - this is a sweet, little indie gem with lots going for it. Tons of nice little moments and performances. Take a chance on an unknown - it'll surprise you.

As a person that have family members who have suffered through illnesses and horrible family issues. I love the way this movie dealt with those issues, showed the lead female character vulnerability even when she wanted everyone else to think she was not as kind as she really was. I loved that the main male character was funny and showed the progression of a slob, down on his luck guy to a great responsible man at the end of the movie.

Great job!!!

To mention the plot of this cheerful comedy is pointless because - for me - the movie is more about the characters. Each actor brings their role to life and the movie just flows along and leaves you happy.

This is a must watch for people that enjoy light comedy and oddball characters that you wish you knew in real life!

Yes, I like this film.
