Goliath

Goliath is a rivoting movie about a woman who returns home for her father's funeral only to be faced with family turmoil and haunting secrets. It touches on family drama and mental illness. Luke Villemaire is a brilliant young Canadian writer, producer and director of this film. This film shows pure raw emotion with performances from Sipos, Mylett and many Canadian artists!

I cannot wait to see what comes next from Luke Villemaire! His talent, ambition and exeptional writing skills are pure magic! He leaves you wanting more! The Canadian film industry is lucky to have someone as talented as this young man!

Goliath is a captivating film from start to finish, following the personal and familial struggles of the main character, Robin (Jessica Sipos). The plot is brilliantly written, the cinematography is creatively crafted, and the score is musically moving. As the film progresses, viewers learn more about Robin and the circumstances surrounding her mental health state, allowing viewers to effectively "feel" with her.

With an all-star Canadian line-up including writer, director, producer-extraordinaire, Luke Villemaire, Goliath is sure to emotionally captivate audiences. This film was evidently made with heart and soul and has a special heart and soul of its own. A must-see!

A highly impressive debut feature film with strong performances and an important theme. I was drawn to this film because it features many young, talented Canadians (Jessica Sipos, Michelle Mylett, Daniel Maslany) and the stunning filmography. I found the score to be brilliant throughout and loved how the film featured songs by local Canadian musicians. While the themes of the film are serious in nature, the script offers various light and heartfelt moments between the characters.

Villemaire is definitely one to watch in the Canadian film industry! Looking forward to seeing more projects from this filmmaker in the future.

This film is expertly crafted from cinematography to score to the exceptional writing by Villemaire. Extremely captivating performances by Sipos, and Mylett. I really appreciated the light hearted moments sprinkled into a movie with such serious subject matter - which blended seamlessly. You get the sense from the film that the topic is close to home and very personal, loved seeing the vulnerability shine through from such a young writer/director/producer! Excited to see his future projects!

Being from Ontario, it was very exciting to see an all Canadian cast/crew - shot in southern Ontario, movie!

This film guided me through the complexities of what many of us experience in life. I appreciated that the film gave the audience options to relate to. Villemaire introduced us to how people react to death, dementia, sibling rivalry, family dynamics, and mental illness - this, all when living under the microscope of a small town.

Villemaire is not shy about providing us with real time content and sprinkles in some light hearted moments, while filming in a beautiful location of Canada. Goliath the Film giving us all permission to feel comfortable about being uncomfortable. I look forward to Villemaire's next project!
