Bob Trevino Likes It

"Bob Trevino Likes It" surprised me. I was drawn to it because I like John Leguizamo's work. He's really stellar as a working class man with manifold layers; a man isolated by grief, work, and his own inhibitions. Barbie Ferreira (Euphoria) is exceptional as Lily, a lost and lonely soul, aching for connection, lacking in confidence. The depth of compassion that is forged between these two characters draws the viewer in from the beginning. Its development ensures the viewer will want to see how and if their bond will continue.

This film has an excellent cast, a wonderfully original screenplay, and isbeautifully acted. It's emotional without being sentimental. The main characters have serendipitous chemistry. The supporting cast are equally strong and important to plot development and thematic elements. It's moving, quirky, funny, and clever.

People are rarely what the appear to be from the outside & "Bob Trevino Likes It" reveals this theme, among others, with aplomb. Recommend!

I will not post any spoiler details but as a creative, a writer And fan of films this will be seen as a perfect movie. This movie will encompass the human condition through the main character in a swift masterful journey of self growth and resilience through bittersweet circumstances.

I will be the first to claim it will be oscar worthy out the gate and one of the best films of the decade.

I truly loved the whole cast's performances as an assemble . When this Film drops I implore you all to rush to see it.

I will state it is a universally relatable film due to how anyone watching will feel the humanity in it.

Bob Trevino Likes It deservedly won Best Narrative at SXSW, had full houses going on five showings. This film was one of the most life affirming I've seen in a while what with honest performances, a nuanced script that balanced laughs with sobbing (yep, the good kind). Diretor Laymon brings us a story steeped in the modern world of social media yet at the same time providing the audience the unrelenting power of human connection. Gloriously graceful and smart, Bob Trevino Likes It is a refreshing character study that rewards the audience by eschewing cheap gags and crass dialogue in service of masterful storytelling. A trumph!!!

What started out as a little cringe in the beginning, evolved into one of the most heartfelt emotional movies I've ever seen in my life. I was openly sobbing and I couldn't hold it in. I was watching with a friend and usually I can hold in emotions but man, I couldn't this time.

I LOVED THIS MOVIE. I felt the acting and performance of the lead woman on a deep level. I believed everything. I mean you need to watch this from start to finish and don't stop. It will get you. You will feel it in your bones by the end. What a pleasant surprise this movei was.

It's about loneliness, human kindness and compassion for others.

Straight after watching it I had to write this review. First, Ferreira was amazing in this, and indeed all the actors were great. Really film was about a woman who was abandoned as a child by her mother, and raised by an uncaring and selfish father. She gets by, but is lonely. On the internet she meets a guy with the same name as her father, and he shows her platonic love.

I loved the original story, and the demonstration of caring between people who are all suffering with their own problems. A beautifully crafted film. Nice cinematography, beautifullly emotive. Such a touching film and for me a real gem. While sad, it shows a real positive aspect to humam hearts. Please watch this, it's great.
