Marcus

This is a must see film with a voice and something important to be said. Everything is done well in the movie from the DP, acting and directing. Pacing is very good as well as the story continues to move as you are digesting what is going on with the main character.

What an amazing experience! Instantly get drawn into the story from the start. Beautifully shot and executed. A wonderful journey through the perception of someone dealing with mental health issues. This is a must see! Especially if you are an advocate of mental health.

So....

It took me two days to digest the film Marcus. I cried, like a big baby cried. What a dynamic film that touches on so many relevant topics, including facing ourselves finding ourselves and righting our wrongs.

What struck me the hardest was the acknowledgement and unpacking of mental health in men, a topic that will always be relevant and hopefully one day soon the stigma will end. Get the help you need, do not let anyone shame you! You matter! Your health matters!

If you have not seen Marcus, please be sure to sit down and really watch. Do NOT forget the tissue! I felt every single emotion from the cast.

Katana Malone was AMAZING. The entire cast was amazing! I did the whole ugly cry. I didn't even move when it was over. I sat there for over 30 minutes just thinking it through.

When I woke up, I was still thinking about it. I'm STILL thinking about it and I watched Friday night. Powerful, just POWERFUL! I actually think I'm going to watch again. Mental health is real and this film touches on that in the most human way possible.

Marcus is a beautifully written movie with a unique perspective on mental health. The shots were clean, acting felt very real and the plot will hit you at your core. The Director touches on a topic very prevalent in today's world and will leave you with a different outlook on life.

Owen Miller gives a stunning performance while Katana Malone is outstanding in her's. Between the two of them prepare to have your heart wrenched out. This is a must see movie like no other, with a lasting empathetic impact. I am pleased that this story line served up tremendous emotions that brought me to tears several times. Marcus and many like him represent the real world and his story needs to be told, felt, embraced, and shared. J.R. Poli you are a genius director. Well Done!
