Butter's Final Meal

I was interesting about independent movie. I love this movie so far. Alex is pretty good actor to play Butter. I can relate his feeling and how he has been through and what people doesn't see either notice till something happened and got noticed. It kinda bother me how people treat and think real friends and stuff but they are not real till they have to show real side and show who they are (believe it or not, I'm deaf and i don't have real friends mostly fake friends they only care what they see/think) I just don't understand people but Movies are my life.

Great Movie and even better soundtrack.

Hey guys - The scene where Butters friends take him out .

At one point you see them line dancing - Cowboy country style .

But the song playing is far from country !!

Sounds like Zeppelin!!

" All I wanted to say..... You're gonna miss me when I'm gone ".... ( something like that ).

Who is That ??????

Also - another fun little tune I heard in the movie ... The scene after the Christmas scene , Butter is taking to his friend .

Then you see him in a supermarket loading up supplies .

The lyrics are like " Well On That Street /You bought your scar - from my way down / Had my Fortune Told .... And that Green Eyed Gypsy / Oh so shakes me / She says that the Pain is what makes me - Whole ".... Oh such a cool little tune !!

Who sings that ???

I'm on a mission .

Again - Great movie - I wish I could be a vigilante and deliver Justice to all who have been bullied !!

Tears me apart !!

I don't get it !!

I grew up with a bunch of A Holes and went to school for 12 years and I never ever noticed or knew of anyone being bullied .

But then again - I grew up without social media .

That's a real Be Otch !!

But still - people were still bullied back then .

Never around me though .

Or even my friends who went to other schools .

Trust me - If I did see anything like that - a boy or girl being bullied , it would end fast !!

I'm that type of guy .

I always stick up for the underdog .

Everyone should !!

Cheeky title, but it's in the same ballpark. While I absolutely despised The Whale as a film, I found this one better done, even as an adult watching. It was relatable...life isn't all doom and gloom, and people who seem perfectly normal can be dying inside. And people near to those suffering always wish they'd have known, suffering people don't wear a cowbell. And this film catches that well, bouncing between joy and utter sadness.

It's a little corny at times, and not the best acted. It's also not completely unrealistic in any way, as I was worried where it was heading from the description. The description both here and on prime actually doesn't do it justice, it's a far deeper movie and the catfishing isn't all that relevant to the movie at large. But it doesn't pound the drama and negativity into your head like The Whale, it's a balanced look. Give it a watch on a lazy Sunday afternoon, you'll be glad you did.

I'm not going to explain the plot because it's been done in other reviews. I want to say that Butter kept my attention through the whole movie. It was interesting to watch. Very few movies keep my attention nowadays, but this one truly had me enthralled. I'm usually a crime and horror fan but wanted something different tonight. I'm happy I picked this movie. The scenario is very different from your run of the mill movies. The star in it was so unique that I couldn't look away. ......,...................,.....................................................................

I've seen many movies that portray high school bullying and self harm- this one has a slight edge due to the saxophone music. And I thought the ending, while unrealistic and sickly-sweet, was rewarding.

However there were no laugh out loud moments and the relationship between the young man and his parents wasn't fully explored. The parents are essentially placed on the sidelines while their son is hurting, and they don't seem concerned at all about his morbid obesity nor do they encourage their son to exercise or diet. Some of this movie did seem downright exploitative and mean-spirited. So much so that the mother enables her son to eat high caloric meals, and she even seems shocked when her son cuts down on his portions.

In terms of the scenes with the high schoolers partying or hanging out, those do drag on. I didn't think I'd rate this above a 5, but the Professor and Doctor characters were fun to watch and were great advocates for Butter. As a whole, I think this movie is worth watching due to its musical interludes and emphasis on self respect and healthy relationships.
