Camp Takota

I thought it was a funny film, but that's mostly it. Yes, it's a good independent film, and it's amazing how far these youtube ladies have come in comparison to a few years ago. The setting is nice and it has a lot of 'youtube-ish' and good comedy. You can also somewhat relate to the characters, which are played really believable. But it isn't very special and doesn't contain much story-dept. Also the editing really annoyed me. With all the fades and black spaces every few minutes it felt like I was pulled back from the movie and back to the real world. It also has a few short scenes which I didn't thought were necessary. It just didn't really stand out for me.

Overall I think it was a very funny and feel-good movie, but it doesn't had very much dept. The result was that it didn't remain in my thoughts afterwards.

(I do have to add I was already known with their work before I saw this movie. This may have affected my expectations.)

I don't think this movie was worth a watch at all. I was really bored so just put on this movie and ended up being more bored. I didn't like the cast so much either. The movie was not touching and was not interesting at all. The whole romance thing also lacked chemistry. It felt very bland. It also didn't have much humour and didn't feel funny where it was supposed to be. It was like predictable and nothing very much that'll blow you away. I don't know why it has above 7 ratings here, but i'm sure once the user review start coming in it'll drop. It felt like a very typical kind of movie and wasn't anything new that would amaze people.

This is a cute TV-grade movie about an unestablished young -- but not-that-young-anymore -- woman who escapes her dysfunctional life to work as a counselor at a summer camp, although she's just a leeeeetle bit too old for that.

"TV-grade" meaning that the actors can't really act and that the script is as predictable and boring as ... well, an underdeveloped and underdramatised TV movie.

When comely but still totally down-to-earth Elise (Grace Helbig) arrives back at Camp Takota, it quickly transpires that her camp counselor colleagues from back in the day are actually lesbians. That's why they always bunked together, geddit? Elise discovers the charms of simple camping life along with the rugged charms of local hunk Jeff who's an alternative farmer. Will Elise return to her busy city life or ... I'll stop here because I don't want to give away the ending.

I don't want to be overly sarky, this is an OK little movie but unquestionably a looooong way from being 7.5/10 impressive, as the current IMDb ranking would have it. Running a successful Youtube channel and being a successful movie actress are two different pairs of shoes after all.

This movie, is terrible. It's like a Lifetime movie but with swearing. My wife only likes movies with happy endings, and even though this movie has a happy ending, it's such sugary fluffy garbage it is PAINFUL to watch, and even she couldn't take it. The film doesn't execute anything positive successfully. The characters don't captivate, aren't believable and it's so very campy. The movie has a few lines of witty dialogue worth a laugh, but the story is predictable and puts the cheese in cheesy. It's literally a waste of 100 minutes of your life. Whoever wrote anything positive about this movie, must have been connected to it in some way or was paid. I watched it, all of it, and I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

All the big Youtubers have been raving about this movie when this came out, and naturally, I assumed that these Youtubers are only supporting their peers that's why they're saying nice things about the movie.

The story was pretty mediocre, it has a simple plot that we've all seen before. However, even if that's the case, I still found myself enjoying the movie. For a low budget project, the filming was great. The production did a great job at making a good film out of limited/tight resources.

The actors did a great job too, considering that some of them have never acted for a movie before.

The emotional scenes didn't feel awkward to me considering the fact that I am so used to seeing Grace, Mamrie and Hannah being comedic and always goofing off. Of course, there were witty comedy and classic puns. You can't really have the Holy Trinity of Youtube in a movie without throwing in some puns, it's what they are known for.

Over all it was an enjoyable movie. It wasn't award worthy but I think they made a pretty decent job at this project. And I'm not just saying this because I'm a fan of their channels. In all honesty, this was really well made.
