What Rhymes with Reason

Even as a Christian, I've never laughed (and cried) so much in a faith-based movie...because they're by-and-large terrible (besides maybe VeggieTales).

Pleasantly surprising, genuine, and heart-wrenching performances across the board. There's a long take monologue that had me in tears. Although there's a moment that a character literally throws a Bible- the film never beats you over the head with it. It's an authentic look at Christianity that doesn't give you all the answers. There are definitely some beautiful moments for the believers in the audience, but the majority of the movie is accessible and can be appreciated by believers and non-believers alike. The humor is sharp and the dialogue is current and raw while still being family-friendly.

Sure it's got some limitations as an indie film, but it has what most indie films don't: purpose, heart, and hope. Layer on top of that a great synth-y soundtrack, striking landscapes, and a cast with great chemistry, and I can't recommend WRWR enough.

This movie took the subjects of anxiety, depression and suicide and approached them in a way that teens can relate. There was a positive message about seeking help for any kind of issue and not being ashamed about it. Each character was dealing with their own feelings and mental issues that were caused by situations that were unique for them. Their friends helped them to confront those situations and emotions in positive ways after they finally opened up about what was actually going on in the minds and hearts. It also showed that not everything we see on the outside of a person lets us know what is going on inside. Overall this movie had some great moments of laughter, heartache, and perseverance.

From the moment the movie started, I was drawn in-the characters, the scenery, the music, mention of God and faith, humor and a touch of romance. The acting was exceptional. The scenery was beautiful (Oklahoma, you surprise us!). The story was well planned out and flowed perfectly with the actors, the conversations about mental health and the story line.

The story line may focus on the younger generation but all generations will highly enjoyed it, as I did. Mental health (depression, anxiety, anger issues, suicide, etc.) are honestly addressed, bonding relationships (with young and old), real, raw life situations, outstanding views and adventurous discoveries.

This movie is a keeper! I would watch it again and again. Definitely need it on DVD or You Tube. A high five to all involved in this movie and all solid stars! You guys did a great job and produced a film people need to see!

Every once and awhile a movie comes long that is real, honest, touching and relevant. This is one of those movies. And yet, sprinkled in with just the right amount of humor to keep it real.

If you know anyone dealing with Anger, Anxiety , Depression then this is a movie that touches on all of those emotions, yet does it very delicately, with a message of hope!

A little bit Goonies. A little bit Stand By Me, A little bit Breakfast Club. And yet, a movie that stands all on its own.

Riveting, entertaining, and family friendly.

Highly recommend for all to see. Watch with a friend, you just might make someone's day.

I had the opportunity to see this film on October 10th for its one-day release and I was captivated by the storyline as it made me laugh and cry. Filmed on location across Oklahoma, the film does not just tell a story; it initiates a conversation, mixing threads of adventure, authenticity, and real-life issues that plague our society, notably among young adults. A journey through depression, suicide, and the monumental task of finding one's place in the world, making it not only a movie but a message. The movie deserves to be seen on more screens, provoking thought, dialogue, and, helping to make a perspective change about mental health especially among families with teens and young adults.
