This review is not just for the director / writer / actor in this movie but its for every combo writer / actor / director in the industry.

I implore you and beg of you tot please pick one profession and stick to it. Its not complicated, its just and right and spares us poor saps who have to watch the movies you produce, a lot of disappointment and despair.

Writers should only write.

Actors should only act.

Directors should only direct.

PERIOD. When you do all three, you create a mess.

Please do not think you can do all three let alone produce something that is in any way watchable.

Please listen to what I am saying, maybe ask some directors only or actors only if I am wrong. I will bet you that if they have a shred of honesty that they would tell you I am right.

Pick one field and stick to it please.....

To say that this is an important film almost begs the question.

Of course the topic is important; it has become so nearly taboo that we must use words such as unalived for fear of being outcast and expelled, our online presence itself eradicated.

What really makes this film important is the brilliant manner in which this issue is depicted. It is personal and direct, modest and humble, almost too timid in a way that illustrates and enhances the expression of self and selves, of love and connection and continuance.

All art is expression, its true value lies not in polemic, but in authenticity.

This film is completely and truly authentic. That is what makes it so devastating.

That is what makes it art.

To the fellow who thinks that artists should stick to one job...that is just nonsense. In the realm of film, just look at the works of Charlie Chaplin, of Orson Welles and Woody Allen...even those of Clint Eastwood amongst others. The dangers of being overwhelmed and not up to the task can be overcome by talent and genius, and by sheer intensity and purity of vision.

Gripping. Visceral. Haunting. Real.

These are just some words that come to mind when thinking of Nadine Crocker's 'Continue.' This film will grab you and will NOT let you go. Be prepared to be immersed in the world of Dean, a talented, cool, troubled, complicated and beautiful girl who struggles with mental health and addiction. This film starts out strong and does not let you go. The ability Nadine has to grab the viewer and not let them go is truly remarkable.

Not a movie to miss even if you don't struggle with mental health, I guarantee someone you know does and they should see this film.

For fans of 'Girl Interrupted' and 'Requim For A Dream'

I have to admit, the movie really tested my patience, but the ending was absolutely worth it. I am glad I continued to watch it to the end.

The movie is not just telling a story. The movie itself has a life. And this is the first movie that made me feel this way.

The subject of the movie is controversial and the ratings reflect that. This is not a movie for everyone. It was not made for your entertainment. The movie was made because it had to be made. Like true art.

This is one of those movies where the ending makes you reevaluate everything. Like The Sixth Sense (1999).

When the credits started to roll, tears were streaming down my face.

The premise is good. The idea is also very good. It is like a mixed between Girl Interrupted and Stay, both are good movies in their own right. Unfortunately, Continue failed miserably to treat the very interesting subject. It is too bad that the acting of its main protagonist is over the top. She is so full of her self. The dialogue is so cringey and preachy, I had to skip several parts. And the psychiatry is so unprofessional. What kind of psychiatry allows her patient to visit her at home, in the evening? There is a professional boundaries that should be maintained between patient and their psy. It supposed to be a good movie. What a waste.
