The Allnighter

It's a movie with a story that goes in directions you won't expect. That's appropriate, being about a brainy student of astrophysics who is trying to figure out how the world works, while have to juggle ticking clocks and pressures that life throws at him from all sides.

The movie has moments of thrills, scenes of honest heart-to-hearts, and sequences of frustration and relief.

I recommend this movie to those who like seeing what life is like for people coming from all kinds of backgrounds or life situations. If it looks like just a low-key independent film, viewers may be surprised how a little bit of honest storytelling can pack a real emotional punch.

I really enjoyed this quiet little movie. It is an intelligently written and directed love story about two imperfect opposites who find one another. The lead actor, Owen Beckman, is going to be a huge star. He conveys sincerity and warmth throughout, and reminded me at times of a young Billy Crudup. His counterpart is the equally talented Gretchen Lodge. It's so refreshing to see a movie like this. Writer-Director Aimee Graham understands the nuances of human relationships. There are 1-2 continuity issues in the first 5 minutes but let it go and enjoy what this movie offers. Kudos to the cinematographer and composer as well. And David Koechner and Justine Bateman round out the cast! It's well worth the watch.

Cosmic. Intelligent. Thoughtful. Heartbreaking. Funny. Beautiful... The Allnighter is a strong independent film directed by Aimee Graham, who is the real driver on the quirky road trip to self discovery. There are moments that make you laugh as well as cry, and the best part is, it's never about the destination. It's about the journey, characters, and drive to tell a compelling story about two unlikely people who find one another (in the worst way possible).

If you enjoy lighthearted, smart filmmaking, The Allnighter is definitely worth checking out. I enjoyed every second of it and recommend it highly.

Them main peeps? They're mysterious but hella gripping - this flick's a wild mix. , if you're into flicks that keep you on your toes, leaving you pleasantly confused with some quirky characters and a storyline that's all over the place, then this joint's your vibe. Can't put it in a box, just like those indie gems that keep you hooked 'cause they ain't following no rules. The ending? Pure magic, man. It hits that sweet note that keeps the story buzzin' long after it's done. This ain't your run-of-the-mill flick, nah-it's a ride that stays kickin' in your mind. I leave it two thumbs up! Check it out.

The Allnighter is a great indie comedy drama with strong leading characters and a great story about growing into adulthood. The two leads Terence (played by Owen Beckman) and Belle (played by Gretchen Lodge) are very likable even though they have their flaws! I was surprised to see so many well known actors in this indie movie. Keep an eye out for Justine Bateman, David Koechner, Tom Lister Jr, James Russo and Naomi Grossman just to name a few. I highly recommend giving this movie and watch as I truly enjoyed it and give it two thumbs up! Looking forward to seeing what Aimee Graham does next!!
