Take Out Girl

So I was really into this movie. It has great character development and the script is pretty tight. The main character is very likeable and you really want to see her succeed. However the movie forced itself into a drama around the 75% mark. I'm conflicted because while 'I enjoyed the first half I thought the second half was really contrived and somewhat ...confusing. I don't usually write reviews but I saw how few there were and thought I should add one.

Ultimately the film is really enjoyable if you like the subject and plot. I can see this being a 7 or an 8 for some people easily. However for me I was disappointed with the mishmash of characters and the blatant use of irony towards the end. I still think this movie is worth seeing though. I think the writer has talent but they need to make sure they don't grab too many strings tying up loose ends.(?).

Just don't watch it if your hungry because they are in an Asian restaurant a lot of the time!!!!

I was so unimpressed with the opening 5 minutes I was ready to turn it off. Eventually the story got better and I was in. The story has a lot potential to really grab the audience. But its cast and camera work are very raw and you just don't get immersed into it 100$%

Good job for a budget movie I suppose but I think a better cast and production would have made this movie an 8.

The awards for this movie came in during the Covid virus. It was a good time to submit since there weren't that many films being made during that time. The movie is mediocre, with lots of slow boring scenes. The fact that the young Chinese girl could just basically dictate her plan to sell drugs doesn't say much about the so-called gangsters.

Also, someone should explain to this director, who seems to think (that's because he loves the way the numbers look) that every time he's nominated for a project, he gets to submit both the win and the nomination. As you can see, his page shows 54 wins and 54 nominations; it's supposed to be either or, not both. Someone who is nominated for an Oscar doesn't get the nomination and the win. They have to wait for the results, and then it is posted to their account accordingly.

Didn't expect much from this movie but I really liked it. Great story and acting. Also some really beautiful and touching scenes.

I thought the main character over acted with being hard and the brother did to! But it was a pretty good film! A little more acting training and it would have been a 9!
