Up There

What a fun ride... had me on the edge of my seat almost throughout the whole movie. Zoe's acting ability is superb. The story line is unpredictable and emotion-packed. I found it delightful, and loved seeing my home town on screen. I was sorry to see Jack being such a wimp, which made for a review of 8 instead of 10.... and his boss didn't seem to fit the "editor" role in my view. But those are just two little bumps on the fun ride that this movie provides. I can't wait to see what else Zoe creates!

Thoroughly enjoyed the film...loved the characters and the location. It portrayed a deeply mysterious story line which drew you in and made you deeply care for each character. Cudos to each actor especially Zoe Kanters. Thank you for such a wonderful film!

The story was fresh and unique, but the ending provoked more questions than answers and not in a "use your imagination" type way. The movie explores several story lines that ended up being unnecessary because of how sudden it ended.

The 10/10 ratings are rather suspicious. The cast and crew presumably had fun making the movie and it's technically sound. The lead players (Zoe Canters and Daniel Weingarten) have some comic ability, but the other actors are very uneven. Canters and the Director push the " quirkiness " of her role to the extreme. The story involves an awkward romance which culminates in some surprise outcomes. There's a bit of local color involving small town characters, but they don't get much of a look-in. Whether there is a raison d'etre for the movie depends on personal taste.

It's possibly a sad reality that many Americans, who lost family or friends to a senseless act, a mass shooting, random... As the line is uttered: "I met this girl and 10 years ago her parents and three best friends were killed in a shooting, right. And then..."

"Why would that interest me? Why do I care about a story that happens every week in America? We've all been shot at. Most people don't know it because they haven't been hit."

I'm an Australian, with family and friends in US and every couple of days I hear of a shooting at a school, a church, a shopping centre, a car park... I am saddened, but it seems to be desensitizing Americans, it's becoming the norm

This movie shows, even if fictitious, what it can do to surviving family... I think it was a good movie, good story, good acting, deserve my 8 stars! And I can understand the 10 star rating by some as it may hit home even more for them! The low rating comes from reviewers who may not "feel" much anymore.....
