Good Bad Things

Shane D. Stanger's Good Bad Things (2024) is a touching and inspiring film about the power of love in all its forms. With an engaging tale, outstanding acting, and stunning photography, this film is a must-see for anybody who believes in the transformational power of love. Simple story follows an app developer falling in love in a gorgeous photographer... but disability of one of the partners always rases doubts... is it real love, or is it something else?

One of the most notable aspects of Good Bad Things is the wonderful chemistry between the principal performers Danny Kurtzman and particularly Jessica Parker Kennedy, who excels as Madi - both subtle and compelling, as she moves through the depths of her character's emotions with grace and honesty. Her acting adds dimension to the film, and it's impossible not to root for her character's path to happiness.

"Love is the best part of life, and all we have to do is take a leap," a sentence told by Dannu's father, resonates throughout every scene of this delightful rom-com drama!

This movie was reccomended to me by Squirmy and Grubs on youtube, an interabled couple who educate people. I really enjoyed watching this, and it was worth the movie price from VEEPS to rent it. This was funny,romantic and overall had a unique and amazing storyline. I love how realistic the main characters love aspect is, with his disability. The movie didnt allow people to pity him or make fun of him, he stood up for himself and it was beautiful and realistic adult realtionship- how it should be. It didnt infantilize him, which some movies do. I appreciate the writing of each scene and how the movie was layed out.

I just watched good bad things last weekend and I must say that the movie is beautifully acted and beautifully shot and even though there are problems in my opinion with the real portrayal of disability in the film, I would have loved to see more negotiation of the main characters care between the two main characters who were lovers. The emotions were real and raw and hit all in the right places for me I also like the fact that the main character was portrayed as a successful entrepreneur and even though this isn't the reality for most disabled people who live on social assistance of some kind it gives me the hope for the future that one day the world will see us this way.

I fell in love with the characters in this movie. Strong, original storyline and loads of charismatic actors. But the difference-maker is the sensitive and patent direction. It moves with swiftness, humor, pain, and beauty, and I came to see the world very differently at movie's end. The film tracks a few casual days in an extraordinary man's life and before long I came to understand why all those around him love him so much. This movie is about love, about triumph of spirit, and about the strengths we draw from our family and friends during our darkest times. I laughed and cried. One of my most favorite movies ever. A must see!

I must say I loved this movie. "Good Bad Things" is more than just a love story; it's a testament to resilience, the pursuit of happiness, and the universal desire to be seen and loved for who we truly are. My partner and I watched it on Amazon and laughed and cried. This film is a beautiful reminder that, despite life's challenges, love remains a powerful and transformative force.

I hope that more films like this are made. A talented cast. Beautiful filmmaking. Raw and honest. As an artist, I must say, I loved the way creativity became the driving force that united the lovers. I highly recommend this movie.
