Daydreamer

Definitely worth watching, It's a great movie that explores the themes of redemption, forgiveness and self-improvement.

Really, I think I would give the film an even higher grade it the budget was higher because the technical quality is really low but considering what they had to work with the film was pretty amazing, honestly.

Especially the acting, this cast is amazing (especially Aaron Paul and Caroline D'amore) and i'm glad they all got very sucessefull careers in acting after their roles in this movie, everyone did such a great job !! (I don't know, I just like seeing good artists suceed y'know? )

Most people who didn't like probally just don't know how to interpret a good film, anyway, you should go wacth it now, it's free on youtube !!!

i saw this film at Vail and liked it very much. i was impressed with the heart and soul of it as it was obvious these people were committed to it's living in the screen. the script was compelling and well written. Aaron Paul did a fine job maintaining his through line. kebbel was lovely and entrancing. i thought James wellington in particular was riveting when on the screen. the director captured very well a seedy, dangerous lifestyle that does exist. the obvious low budget is a little distracting at times, but almost seems to enhance at others. the photography seems to be completely hand-held and is excellent. i hope to see more from these first time film makers.

It has the look and feel of a bad high school play, where basic elements of pacing and plot were unknown to the producer(s). Even the name "Daydreamer" doesn't make sense in the context of the film. It's a confusing story that starts out muddled and gets worse as the movie goes on. There are holes in the story that aren't resolved, despite their apparent attempt to "wrap it up" at the end. The camera work is sophomoric to the point where I believe someone bought their kid a Sony DVW for Hanukkah and they suddenly thought they could make a movie. The actors are like so much of Hollywood today: models that look good on screen but can't act their way out of a grocery bag. This movie made my head hurt; not because it's nonsensical and hard to watch, but because someone actually paid money to make it.

This is an innovative independent film that's mesmerizing to watch if you let go of plot expectations. It's a psychological exploration of a troubled young man's life, told with elements of surrealism and film noir. A cross between a crime drama, a drug trip, and a psychic meltdown, the film is visually striking with cutting edge cinematography and editing. The lead is played by Breaking Bad's Aaron Paul who is earnest and beautiful in the role. If you don't get hung up on realism, the film takes you on a mysterious and exciting ride. An avant-garde effort, artfully done, with youthful creative energy. It has the feeling of a David Lynch film, but leaner and meaner.

Decent production value and a couple notable actors had no shot of saving this movie. Gaping plot holes, lazy cuts, all around has the vibe of a rich high school kid who saw The Usual Suspects or Fight Club or some other overrated "thriller" and thought "I can make movies too!" Not worth the time to watch and certainly not worth any dollars if someone is obtuse enough to ask you to pay money to watch this garbage. 0/10 if it were allowed simply because this movie shouldn't have been made.
