Lee'd the Way

From the very first frame, it's evident that this isn't your conventional blockbuster. In a world saturated with explosive action sequences, looming apocalyptic scenarios, and formulaic storylines, this film emerges as a bright star, illuminating a path of hope, innovation, and inclusivity.

The narrative centers on a protagonist with disabilities - a brave and novel choice in cinema. Instead of using the character's challenges as a plot device for pity or melodrama, the movie uses them as a lens of inspiration, reminding us of the untapped potential in all of us. The challenges that one might think would hinder Lee's character, only augment his unique perspective and abilities.

Amidst its serious undertones, the film surprises with humor, ensuring an engaging, heart-warming journey. Lee's journey is seeking solutions and making the world a better place.

While devoid of the high-octane special effects that typically draw audiences, the film is captivating in its simplicity and authenticity. Scenes are crafted not to shock, but to resonate. The film is a gentle nudge toward positivity and possibility, and a great example of what the persons making decisions for our country (or any country) should be focused on.

To summarize, this film breaks the mold, choosing to inspire rather than entertain. It's a testament to the power of storytelling, driving home the idea that even in the face of adversity, with the right perspective, we can find solutions and uplift those around us. A must-watch for those seeking a refreshing, different, and thought-provoking cinematic experience. Dive in and let yourself be moved by a film that's genuinely different.

It's a nice and refreshing movie that stays focused on the positive side of things. I wish more movies could be like this instead of doom and gloom.

Lee'd the Way is a down to earth, open, inclusive and heart-warming movie that made me smile. I am thankful that someone finally thought to write a movie that embraces solutions, with the focus on making the world a better place.

Especially with the current climate in US politics, I would instantly vote for a candidate like Lee! Please keep making positive movies like this, we need a change and it's time. I would love to see more movies like this.

I stumbled upon this comedy drama "Lee'd the Way" by random luck here in 2023. And I must say that the movie's synopsis definitely sounded interesting enough to make me want to give the movie a chance.

Writer Eugene Mandelcorn managed to put together an interesting enough script for the movie; one that was a combination of fairly well-detailed characters, a light-hearted comedy and also taking jabs at the established political systems of today and how candidacies and campaigns are run and function. And it is those last aspects of the movie that definitely brought flavor to "Lee'd the Way".

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but leading actor Simon Twu and leading actress Carolina Hoyos certainly carried the movie quite well with some very convincing performances. They each brought a lot of charisma and relatable qualities to the movie.

While "Lee'd the Way" was a watchable movie, then I doubt this is hardly a movie that I will ever return to watch a second time, simply because the storyline didn't really have enough facts to grant the storyline enough leverage and contents to support more than a single viewing. And it should also be said that the movie is somewhat of a niche movie, catering to a select target audience, thus making "Lee'd the Way" not a movie that will find a seating with everyone easily.

Director Richard L. Anderson does raise some interesting points throughout the course of the 101 minutes that the movie ran for. And if you have an interest in politics, presidential campaigns, and such, then there is a tad extra to enjoy here, if you don't mind the jabs thrown at aforementioned things.

My rating of "Lee'd the Way" lands on a five out of ten stars.

While I would say Lee'd the Way is more a Start to Find a Sustainable Solution vs. A Solution film (the former doesn't sound terribly snappy, I admit), I can appreciate its intent to meld a number of disparate strands, whether to champion a cause in social justice, cross racial lines in relationships, address how troubling contemporary issues have become weaponized by political agendas, the capability of a local movement to see what "big picture" people in power can't, etc. In that light, I particularly enjoyed the portrayal of the news reporter who came to Lee for a ridiculous story (akin to people visiting a zoo or an insane asylum for sheer entertainment value) and came away a true believer.

When reading about the synopsis of this film, I was curious to see what it was about and was pleasantly surprised. What I really appreciated is that there is a voice given to the Native American community and also to those with physical/mental disadvantages. The two main characters have something in these areas and they use their strengths together to make big changes.

I loved the message that if you have a drive, a vision and a dream; that you can make big things happen. It starts in our imagination and if we have the courage to step outside of our comfort zones and take chances, our dreams will become a reality.

There was humor as well and little notes of romance which were a cherry on top for me. More people should watch this movie. Highly recommend!
