Eu Não Posso Esperar

Not terrible. Not great. I was expecting a depressing film about aging out of the foster care system, but this was merely the setting for the film, although it's definitely depressing. The cinematography was interesting, and some scenes were shot quite beautifully. The actors did a fine job. Overall, it was just okay.

Once in a great while we have the opportunity to watch a "movie" that allows us to set on the shoulder of its characters, and observe the world that they live in. Taxi Driver and Midnight Cowboy come to mind. I am not saying this effort is in that astronomical realm, but it's not too far behind.

Imogen Poots has taken advantage of some great parts and should be considered for a high-end lead. Her understated Joan overcomes a few script deficiencies (they meet because she doesn't know who to drive a standard shift SUV). She's understandably frustrated, probably because they don't make any of those outside of Yugoslavia. Caleb Landry gives an extraordinary performance as "Swim." Occasional Hi Def, natural light scenes offer beautiful segues. Low cost but interesting, very visual sets. Definitely worth your time.

I've had this movie on my watchlist for almost two years. I finally decided to give it a shot. Turned out to be ok I guess. It floats along and gets by but is boring most of the time. Very grey and drawn out. Just a little too slow for my taste. It was shot well and had some decent actors but it lacked a meaning. Just a sad story about a seemingly good kid that gets out of foster care and makes some very bad choices. 5 stars

If you feel fragile, dont view this film, because its a socialrealistic gem for the scholard and artseeking part of the audience. its an uncomfortable saga about a young man that has aged out of the foster care system, and is thrown out to the wolfes in the jungle of real life and danger.

its a film that mirrors the weakneses sosciety has when it comes to the orphans among us, they are met with demands everywhere, and the odds they have to win this race are very low so, as with this main character, he is leaning up to the wall of law, having his mugshots doen. its a somewhat psychedelic chaotic way of life and living presented , and its a heavy piece of art to watch. the score eventually also amplifies this feeling, and in the end your deemed to carry it with you in your conciousness for weeks and years to come. the acting are well done, but the story are like an ekg-diagram with extreme ups and downs.

the grumpy old man might have missed the point, but it will not be a rewatch, its too saggy for me.

I was in a trance for most of the run time. It nosedives a little bit in the end, tacking on a plot that was barely introduced before and making it the main point of the film, but I'll give it a pass because that's not what the film is about. It's an experience. I could not take my eyes off the screen for a second. Amazing work from everybody involved. Definitely watching this one again!
