Good Indie Flick-Ending Scared The Sh*T Out Of Me

Low budget film that ended up blowing my mind. Started off slow and like any other high school drama movie and some scenes were boring but when the climax hit, one surprise came after another. The ending literally scared the sh*t out of me. Parts of the ending can really hit people hard and offend some sensitive ones. Some tech problems but each plot point makes you think and it does really make you feel. People in the theater were bawling their eyes out. At the light parts of the movie people laughed and the characters made you like them. Good acting for them being so young and huge fan of the Director. If your looking for an independent film with no known Hollywood stars, definitely give this a watch.

Brings issues of today to life in this shocking story

When I walked into the theater to see "Sincerely, Me", my expectations weren't very high due to the low budget and not many film industry experienced professionals working on the production. But I walked out pleasantly surprised for it being a very well done movie focusing on teen issues of today's world. The movie starts out like any other teen high school drama flick and continues to do so until about halfway. Then all of a sudden it all takes a very dark turn. From drugs, physical violence and lots of blood splatter, I was not able to stop thinking about this movie and the message the entire night. You can definitely tell it was an independent and there was issues here and there but for what little money the crew had to work with and for so many actual high schoolers and college students involved, it was very impressive.
