Just Before I Go

Excellent character creation, simple but thought provoking concepts.

Those expecting something like American Pie will be disappointed, its kind of more a movie for grownups.

Dramatic comedies are super hard to get right. Too much humor and the drama is overshadowed, too much drama and not enough laughs and the humor seems totally misplaced. The mix here, is really well done.

The humanity of everyone involved was awesome.

I was expecting a lot less, I just got watched it as a time killer and was so pleasantly surprised. In the same week I watched Jupiter Rising which was kind of the opposite quality.

Characters you didn't care about. A ridiculous plot that required all common sense being suspended.

Well, first of all the film is hilarious. A little crass and dirty at times, but nonetheless, truly hysterical. It's the films saving grace.

The subplots abound and at times feel a little preachy, but the film still has it's heart in the right place and it's never, ever dull.

Sean William Scott is perfectly cast, and other casting choices were also spot-on.

This film falls in that late coming of age slash cali-alt humor genre.. King of Cali, everything must go, seeking a friend, or jeff who lives at home mold. And much like the latter 2, it's solid. These can certainly be hit or miss, but i laughed and smiled my way through 80% of this film.

Certainly worth a redbox considering all the crap pictured next to it. See it!

It's daring. The film tackles some heavy subject matter in some politically incorrect ways, but thanks to the humor we all shouldn't take any of it too seriously - besides the film does have some positive messages thrown-in there - they're just a bit dampened by the whole crassness and in-your-face humor. It bites off a little more than it can chew, but it's still a very funny and enjoyable film that could barely catch the back-end of a top 25 for 2015 if this year keeps on stinkin'

"i'm gay, dad, not blind."

I love this movie. Realised on the second viewing how much of an ensemble this is, as the script is concerned with the lives Scott's central character touches on his journey to suicide. The cast is amazing. Scott is at a career best here, with Thirlby, Dillahunt, Walsh and Riggle bringing so much life to their characters. It's a beautiful script from Flebotte, at times hilarious and moving, and Cox manages the tone perfectly. Easily one of my favourites.

After reading the synopsis... I thought that I guessed the whole plot, that it would be cheesy and just bad. I'm happy to admit that I way totally wrong. I loved it. The crass jokes worked, the bad jokes were "so -bad-they're-good" and the good jokes, well... can you see the pattern?

This was a heartfelt touching "dark" comedy that still remained light. It touched the larger subjects with ease, the smaller subjects with humor and the all around goodness of the movie came through.

I cried at the end, which isn't something new since I cry at all touching movies (good or bad just as long as the moral is well portrayed), but it was a "good cry". Common ladies, you know what I'm talking about here, don't leave me hanging. Just a really good flick. Way to go Courtney Cox, was not expecting that at all...

There are many laughs to be had and the acting and settings are on point enough never to detract you from the movie. Sean William Scott plays a relatble character that keeps you in engaged and laughing through the entire movie. The supporting cast is equally as fun to watch as the movie unfolds. Rob Riggle and the bother in the movie are fun to watch. I have seen countless movies that do not entertain half as much as this one. They touch upon issues that are faced by families in today's day and age. This should of been released in the movies as I wouldve paid to see it. Easily worth the price of admission. Keep up the great work SWC.
