Eat Wheaties!

Sid Straw (Tony Hale) is a bit of an awkward loser but he tries really hard. He gets appointed co-chair of his college reunion and is told to get on Facebook in order to do the organizing. He's clueless to social media as well as many other things. He is delighted to see former college acquaintance Elizabeth Banks there and starts posting on her fan page. Only the postings are public and her agent Frankie grows tired of his persistence. Frankie files a restraining order on Sid and his life spirals down the drain.

Sid is awkward and clueless. Tony Hale does sell it for all it's worth. He keeps the character from devolving into anger or creepy. I wouldn't say that this is terribly funny but it does become touching around the middle. As his life degenerates, his sadness becomes quite compelling and very endearing. It's an improvement over his cringy cluelessness to his loserdom. By the middle, he's more self-aware. There is a sweetness to Sid and it's all down to Tony Hale.

What a great story! Unpretentious, great characters, nice story and funny in a nice way. Sid is great - you just want him to do well.

I would highly recommend this film because it's a great watch and it deserves to be watched!

My 11 year old son and I just watched this film. He doesn't usually watch movies like this, but he was on the edge of his seat, feeling for and cheering for Sid. It's a movie that reminds all of us, especially during a time where connections are significantly influenced by online / social media, that everyone is deserving of kindness and compassion. It's also a reminder to be kind to ourselves by embracing who we are. Eat Wheaties is a brilliantly funny, beautiful, and moving film. A must watch!

This film tells the story of Sid Straw, who is a bit of an oddball. Over enthusiastic and doesn't really understand social cues. He joins Facebook and accidently ends up stalking a celebrity he went to college with. This leads to a restraining order, losing his job and his home.

This is a really nice film. No sex, no violence or swearing. Just a nice story which keeps your interest. You end up really feeling for Sid and hoping everything works out for him.

Its more of a film you find amusing than laugh out loud. Well worth a watch, really enjoyed this one.

It's a movie sent a message that loser is a relatively term. Sid looks like a dump loser and act weird in some way but he wins a lot in his life indeed. It's a story and fake but kinda inspired many of normal people that attitude matters. Funny movie also.
