I'm Totally Fine

Nothing questionable, but a very sweet movie of the redemption of the main character from her depression of loosing her best friend during a recently canceled party by a unique alien. Very creative idea and execution, characters are not top of the line actors, but do an awesome job at very believable regular people going through the aftermath of the death of a best friend, if there were aliens studying us, this would be a great way to do it. Charming interactions between the two characters, with lots of cute issues to deal with. Great location and scenery. A few cuss words, no nudity or "other" content, focusing on the story completely. Refreshing fun and cute movie. Great for the whole family. Has a great message for those needing a lift in life.

I don't normally watch films in this genre, so I turned this movie on for background noise while trying to get some work done. But instead of getting any work done, I was completely enthralled! I was glued to the TV the entire time. It says a lot about the quality and skill of the people who put this movie together. This film is silly in all of the right ways, but it also seemed to handle the topic of grief in a realistic way without coming across as too depressing or heavy-handed. If you've ever lost something or someone, laughter is often the best medicine, and that theme comes through consistently throughout this film.

This movie is more darkly comic than stand up comic. Go into it expecting that and you will enjoy it much more.

It is a slightly new take on the theme of dealing with the loss of a loved one. Also, do not see it as a serious sci-fi and try to explain it from a realistic scientific perspective...it almost seems a side plot that one of the characters is an alien...

While there are probably a thousand life time movies that try to do this theme, None will measure up to this.

The acting of both female roles is superb. The grieving friend is such a complex believable realistic character that at times, I wanted to reach in and hug her and at other times I wanted to jump on the couch playing air guitar with her. The alien monotone robotic delivery was fabulous and perfectly funny in all the right places, adding a nice dimension on an old theme.

Bottom line.... I am usually not a fan of this type of movie but found myself enjoyably entertained and thoroughly appreciating the final message of the movie. I definitely recommend.

Delivered in an unusual way, the reconnection of a grieving woman to her late best friend was at the same time emotional and endearingly amusing. Vanessa and Jennifer seemed like an unusual friendship - one cautious and uptight and one wild and carefree. Touching on real themes like fear, regret, resentment and acceptance, it covers all these with depth and humour. Natalie Morales nailed Jennifer's awkward character - from her sentence construction, monotone alien delivery and the hilarious antics she got up to. I could have watched it for longer just to enjoy her performance. Loved it. Worth a watch.

"What we once enjoyed we can never lose. All that we love becomes a part of us."

'I'm Totally Fine' is a fascinating exploration of grief, healing and friendship. The film is also subtly hilarious - I was expecting a serious sci-fi drama, but there were times when I actually found myself laughing out loud!

It was beautifully written, beautifully shot & beautifully acted from start to finish. The chemistry between Jillian Bell and Natalie Morales is palpable on screen. Talk about a dream team - I couldn't keep my eyes off them. I loved this movie and will be recommending it to anyone who will listen!
