Just Before I Go

"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.

As others have said, surprisingly good movie. I liked Sean William Scott before, now I respect him. It wasn't just him though--really, all the characters were genuine, and made me like them/the story. Sure, the humor is juvenile (my 65 year old mother wouldn't like it either), but I was cracking up throughout the whole thing so...

The main plot is predictable, but the side-character interactions are gold (sometimes hilarious, sometimes oddly touching). I feel like the casting/writing/acting were all so good that the cookie-cutter plot (depressed lonely guy, by huge coincidence meets beautiful depressed lonely girl) was pulled off quite nicely.

Overall, quality. Very enjoyable film.

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.

This movie is just like so many other movies... but then it's not. It's quite transparent and obvious, but equally entertaining, well paced and emotional, with quite a few pretty hilarious moments.

While it is in no way epic, and does not answer any deep questions or will change the way you think or influence your life in any way, it will leave you smiling for a while.

Decent story, nice funny moments and pretty great casting (imho). I very much like most of the characters, some well known actors and very good behind camera work from Courteney Cox, no less.

Definitely a recommendation for a dull evening, especially if you're feeling blue. Very positive energy.
