It took me a while to figure out that Sean wasn't playing a trans person but just playing a woman. Not unheard of for someone to play another gender, but it did take a while. That said after I got it straight I settled in and rolled with it and it was pretty funny. Many wonderful actors and a quirky vibe all its own.

This movie isn't going to be like some ground breaking, life changing movie. It's a indie comedy.

It's totally fine. Is it the funniest thing ever? No definitely not. Are there some laughs scattered through out? Yeah.

I thought Sean Hayes was fine in this role. Sometimes the lines were a bit naff but then other time's they were funny. I think it was the delivery that help the lines out.

Not tons happen in this movie so people could get board.

I used this word a lot in this review but my perfect way to describe it is "fine".

I understand the premise way too well. Unmotivated, unrealistic expectations for yourself, and then reality kicks in and it too late to fix the lost years that got away. Has its funny moments but the script was lacking, a little in backstory, as to the how she ended up with such a dreadful, meaningless life.

Loved this movie. It's very funny and takes you into Susan world. Pure escapism to a very simple place. It's also acted very well. Bring in part 2.

What a self-serving piece of crap. People don't waste your time.

I thought this was actually quite a funny movie. I didn't realise the states had people who sat home all day on benefits...but was genuinely funny. Brief and different. Not sure what people expect....for some reason I just kept thinking of Napoleon dynamite. Had that feel to it

Lazy Susan (2020) -

I feel like this is just a film to prove that anyone can play anyone, that is after all the job of an actor, but nobody complained when Eddie Redmayne played Stephen Hawking instead of an actor who actually has ALS and that's because he did it well and suited the role. There does seem to be a lot of discussion surrounding this lately though.

I believe that Warwick Davies is a champion for Dwarf roles for Dwarf actors and there are people saying that gay roles should go to gay actors. Personally I am still upset that Will Truman (Eric McCormack) was not played by a gay man in 'Will & Grace', but only because I fell in love with him all those years ago and thought that we would become lovers if I ever moved to America. It could still happen?

I believe in the best person for the job, no matter what, so it's a shame that this particular film wasn't a better made, more mainstream film to get that point across and while I like Sean Hayes usually, I'm not sure that this is his best work or that he was the right one for the role. The outfits he wears as Susan certainly aren't flattering. It might work better if his look was less dowdy. I don't however feel that he wasn't playing a woman, I just didn't feel that this was the best production to show the versatility of actors and that no one should be guaranteed a part just because they were born or grew to be one way or another, if that was indeed what they were going for. There are too many female actors out there to list that I think would have been a better Susan.

I think that the film is actually supposed to be a bit ridiculous and in this it excels, but not really in a good way, but oddly enough, it is inoffensive.

In some ways it's like watching Jack from 'Will & Grace' if he didn't have Will and Karen to back him financially and was a female, because Sean doesn't really come across as a different character.

Essentially the story doesn't lead anywhere, it's more of a snapshot of Susan's life, which doesn't have anything going for it, which means that there isn't really anything exciting happening for the viewer.

I've said a lot that is down on the film, but it does have a certain something to it that I can't quite put my finger on. Let's put it this way, I didn't turn it off and I do feel that I might return to it again some day, but I have no immediate plans to revisit it at this time. I will see how my life plays out and what my memory tells me or emotes in me when I am next presented with an opportunity to view it again and make the decision then.

470.91/1000.

It would be interesting to hear the back story on this release. I think it would have worked better as a series than a full-length movie. It was fun and enjoyable but it felt like I was binge watching a series.

This movie is a breath of fresh air. Sean Hayes was amazing as Susan and Corrin, the best friend is someone I would want as my best friend too!! Love everything about this movie. Definitely a must see!!!

Raise your hand if you're a bit of a lazy bum. Everyone gets a bit lazy from time to time. You neglect some task, you can put off some goal, you can forget about picking up your kids; we all get a little lazy and for the most part, it's not that big of a deal. Unless you're lazy like Susan. Don't be a lazy Susan.

What we have here in Lazy Susan is a Sean Hayes vehicle that shows us a pretty extreme version of a lazy (and very selfish) individual. We follow a woman named Susan go about her daily life, which is basically sighing and doing the bare minimum while at the same time prioritizing herself in almost any given situation. To piggyback that we also see Susan constantly screw things up, and we also see her deal with the unfortunate road-bumps life throws her way. We see her attempt to do things the right way and, for the most part, we just watch her struggle. And as is usually the case for most of us, all that struggle is usually related to her being just a Lazy Susan.

The kicker with Lazy Susan is that it's an oddly relatable tale that should strike home with people who tend to be lazy and/or selfish. I know I can be my own worst enemy at times and make that idiotic decision which will no doubt negatively affect my life. And this here little weird gem of a flick reminded me of my occasional lameness.

Self-loathing reminders aside, the film also succeeds fantastically with Nathan Hayes' performance as Susan. I'm no fan of Will & Grace (I think I may have seen a couple?) but from what I gather from Nathan is that he's one helluva an actor. He brought so many little nuisances to this role that I'm convinced he's more proficient at playing a female character than most female actresses. For a quirky indie comedy, he knocked it out of the park.

Lazy Susan seems to be getting a bunch of flack and yeah, I suppose it is a bit of a crowd-splitter. I mentioned how it could be a reminder of your own inadequacies but another aspect that may be bothering folks is that Nathan's Susan is quite the spectacle, and her antics can be overwhelming. As well, the comedic aspect here, while absolutely consistent, may not work for everyone. I thought it was a nice blend of outrageous and deftly subtle. So, with all that said, take a look in the mirror and stop using your belly as a plate ya lazy goodfernuthin.

I watched this movie until the end, hoping that the lead character would do something redeemable, but this movie isn't about that... It's about watching a detestable character do detestable things. I was a little confused at first, since a man is playing Susan. I wasn't sure if she was trans or what... but no, it turns out it's just a dude playing a woman's part. If there's any humor in the movie, a lot of it comes from a guy playing a woman. The rest is just the pathetic, unlikeable main character irritating her family and taking advantage of the few friends she has. It isn't witty at all. I guess you could call it quirky, but not in a smart or fun way. If you thought "Married With Children" was a lot of laughs, this will probably appeal to you.

It's like it was supposed to be bad... so does that mean that they nailed it? The fact that a dude is playing a woman and the whole thing is not at all explained anywhere in the movie and everyone acts as if it really is a woman... I can't. I mean, that's funny!

Allison Janey - my favorite! She should have had a lot more scenes in this!!

But Susan... oh, Susan. What can we say about Susan. The sad part is that I know people like that in real life so it's not even just a character in a movie. This is literally a documentary about someone's life.

But let's be real. If you see the poster or the trailer you pretty much know what you're getting yourself into. Don't be disappointed if you get a B-rated trashy comedy. That's what this was intended to be.

Decent cast, lousy writing, worse timing, a total piece of junk. Hard to understand why Allison Janney would agree to be in this. I wish I could get my time back.

With the talented actors in the film, I expected better. This movie was an absolute disaster. I wish I would have seen the IMDB meta score and critical reviews before wasting $6 renting the movie. Don't waste your time.

Susan wasn't what I expected to be as far as personality because she is a she-male. Not a crossdresser. No offence here, since I don't care about anyone's choice of the way they want and, like to live. It may take awhile for some viewers to get used to her. After all, her purpose here in this movie is to entertain. My only suggestion is that, you don't watch her with your kids (language).

I exec produced I micro budget movie and this film makes it look like an oscar favourite

After several months of sloathing, susan floats automatically to a rock concert in her sleep. When she wakes up from the noise she leaves.

The male playing a female thing I didn't get at first. By the end you kind of forget about it as it really is irrelevant. I'm glad I didn't let the reviews put me off.

Although not a belly- laugh type of comedy, it has a good mix of funny, poignant and philosophical elements. There isn't much of a story, but again, the point of the film is Susan's journey and growth as a person.

I recommend if you like quirky & unusual films with an interesting message.

This is a fun and lighthearted romantic comedy, that you just can't take seriously. It is good for a brain-off evening.

I was prepared to like this movie because Sean Hayes was in it. The acting was horrendous and the story line was NOT funny at all. No wonder this TURKEY was never released to the theaters. According to box office mojo it made ZILCH so it was never released. Susan was unbelievable as a character. Does anyone really act like that and get away with it? I wasted over 90 minutes of my life on this junk that I will never get back!
