1. The most successful GenXers are drunk all day, every day.

2. When you turn 45, you're not going to look remotely like you did when you were 18.

3. Wives who aren't blonde are miserable.

4. Wussy "nice guys" aways wear a gingham shirt.

5. If you increase the amount of time you spend buzzed by half an hour per day every year, eventually you can be buzzed all your waking hours.

6. Lines paraphrased from "Some Kind of Wonderful" sound really pathetic when coming from middle-aged actors.

7. When one bad boy taunts another, if the victim doesn't get angry, it's because he's recording it all on a cell phone.

8. 45-year-olds still care about whose daddy is richer, even when daddy is dead.

The cast is in their mid to late 20's maybe early thirties. The plot is slow and boring. As a 40yo gen x'er I can say the youngest of us are 39/40. This movie is poorly written and poorly cast. This would be better delivered as a millennial movie since the cast fits that time period and the plot seems aimless like their generation. Don't waste your time.

Man what was i thinking watching this piece of emptiness !! no plot .. no script ... I literally went on a coma asking myself ..what was this movie is all about !! no clue .. The plot itself is far from original and the script is weak and unattached .. while the acting was emotionless ..

To be honest i just watched this movie to see "Nicky Whelan" at work .. that was it ... my misleading instinct lead me into this without even watching the trailer .. so it is my sacred duty to alarm everyone .. Not recommended.

What they did with this movie was inappropriate and rather quite frankly insulting. Helen keller could have mixed the sound better, the royalty-free music drowns out any dialogue. However Kit Harrington put in a steller performance as "marty" and reevie fenstermacher reprises her role as "young lydia" and does a phenomenal job. Clearly taking notes from kubrick, the director places alot of complex themes below the surface of the film. For example, the film has a strong marxist subtext and seems to endorse theories of historical materialism and theories of labor surplus. In addition, many critics have interpreted the films plot as symbolic of the yugoslav wars and the genocide of the bosniaks perpetrated by the bosnian serb army of Ratko Mladic. The party scene in particular, is reminiscent of the srebenica massacre in which 8,000 bosniak men were executed due to ethnic hatred, the result of hundreds of years of tension in the balkans. Will the region ever see a resolution to this conflict?

This trash is worse than anything Lifetime could half-bake and rush to screen. I think they were going for some sort of Big Chill nostalgia and man ... it falls flat. Unfortunately, it doesn't take much to win awards in film in this century.

My title sums up my review. Its quiet, like a stage play. The actors give their performances in long, un edited scenes that might be boring for most over stimulated viewers but there was something refreshing about it for me.

"The Middle of X" is a good watch for GenX-ers and maybe even their children / aging parents. It is a dialogue heavy light-drama. The story aims at a very specific audience but if you look past the type of characters there are life messages for people of all walks of life.

The production has an indie look which is basic in some places but holds well overall. The writing shows flashes of an authentic voice but sometimes gets weighed down with too much tell don't show.

There are a lot of characters/actors, but somehow they all fit in. Colin Egglesfield and Nicky Whelan were OK as the leads but there are some strong supporting performances by Ronnie Blevins and Jason Grey stanford.

I don't usually spend time reviewing anything online but a couple of the reviews here felt like Trolls an haters so I thought a fair write up was needed.

Overall it's a good movie, not great, but the ending stuck with me.

The Middle OF X shines a light on an overlooked group of people - upper class white people - and the genuine ups and downs that they encounter. In this day and age that might be very unpopular but kudos to the filmmakers for having the guts to make this movie.

A real story for once. No contrived characters serving up politically correct dialogue about the most absurd and sensational situations. Finally someone made a movie for people and situations that I can relate to - thank you!

Really wanted this film to be totally awesome, instead it was merely good.

Most of the characters were engaging but they felt a little short changed, like they needed more time to tell me more about each character. I could see it being a great TV series.

The end was a very interesting choice by the writer - I think I liked it but not totally sure.

I lived this story, I'm still living it. If you ever wondered what ever happened to Generation X this movie answers it very clearly. Small movie that should get much more attention - but the baby boomers and millennials will never understand ;) My 15 year old son and 13 year old daughter also enjoyed it - now they have a lot of questions about the 80s.

A great film with great actors showing the aftermath of growing up in the 80s!

I stumbled onto The Middle Of X because I love Colin Egglesfield and I am glad that I did.

Colins character "Mack" didn't move the needle for me during the movie. However when the movie ended (a very surprising moment) I realized that his character being the least interesting was probably intentional.

Theres a ton of dialogue in the movie, most of it was very real and intersting, the balance was a bit too obvious.

There are a lot of relatively unknown actors in this movie that I now want to see more of what they can do. Ronnie Gene Blevins and Josh Cooke in particular.

I'd like to see more from the writer/director Peter Skillman Odiorne also.

Bottom line is this movie was a breath of fresh air with a sincere message in a small indie wrapper.

This is a very good under the radar film. Good message. Good laughs too.

Entertaining and fun, well directed and acted! Poignant parts that all coming to,class reunions can identify with. Shades of Big Chill.

Given current events being focused on a 1980s "prep school" year book, people should probably see this movie.

I grew up around people like the characters in this movie and I stay in touch with many of them because they are my closest friends. People like to tear down generation x but consider that there collective psyche was formed by the fast-paced, cocaine fueled, music video culture of filmmaking I think this movie hits the nail on the head!

We were truly "latch key kids", kids who did whatever they pleased when adults were not paying much attention.

"The middle of X" shows a reflective, and recovering generation of people in a raw and real way. The ending makes a statement that there may still be hope for us so ling as they don't define us by our yearbooks.

I have not read Mark Judge's "Wasted, Tales of a Gen X Drunk" but I'd guess it is not too different from this movie. Most people might not care but they should because we are the people raising the next generation while the Baby Boomers and Millennials are not paying any attention.
