    An Unexpected Gem

    This is a movie that will tug on your heartstrings. It handles a very serious topic in a very realistic way, and that's what I love about it. It doesn't overly-dramatize this particular story, but it also doesn't undersell the amount of pain Casey is going through.

    I thoroughly enjoyed the humorous bits, but I also really enjoyed the more serious talks between Casey and Jess. I only wish more people like Jess existed because we could all use a friend like that.

    I honestly wasn't expecting the ending to go the way it did, but I will just say that this is a movie that you won't forget.

    We all know that not everyone makes it; some of us have more fight in us than others, and that's what speaks volumes about this film.

    The Enormity of Life is truly an art: you cannot save people, you can only love them. They've got to do their own bit of saving, and oftentimes, it's our lack of desire to get it, that makes us our own worst enemy. Love truly does inspire, and it does make us do crazy things.

    Love this unique story and it's definitely a movie I'd recommend.

    Unexpected Gem

    While I'm not exactly sure where this movie fits in the MCU timeline but it doesn't really matter because it was such a well done piece of film making. The actors really make the characters feel real and the story is so well constructed that the ending makes complete sense. We don't see enough thoughtful and character-driven movies these days so this was an unexpected surprise. It says the runtime was 102 minutes but the movie was so entertaining that the time flew by. I highly recommend this movie.

    What an emotional ride

    This film portrays a very unique perspective from how you can be down in life no one ever being there for you and you always having to be the strong one. To being introduced to love in life when you have never seen anything like it, but pain and suffering. This really does show the struggles and worries of life in so many perspectives showing that you can still find love and happiness amongst all of the problems in life. This film is a whirlwind of emotions from when we first meet Casey who has had enough of life to when we come across Jess and Jules that provided Casey with the love that he never got. They are kind of like a family that works through problems by helping each other whilst finding times of laughter and joy. I am glad I came across this film it leaves you feeling happy and sad at the same time as it is very bittersweet, therefore overall I highly recommended anyone watching this film it really does bring up some emotional topics that needs to be talked about more in life. A big well done to the cast and crew for bringing such an emotional story to our screens and a special mention to Emily Kinney who portrayed Jess, Breckin Meyer who portrayed Casey and of course the amazing Giselle Eisenberg who portrayed Jules, as I am very impressed with all of their performances as it is such hard emotional topics to portray on screen and they all smashed it congratulations.

    Wonderfully poignant

    I couldn't possibly like this movie more. It was unique, beautifully written and acted.and both funny and sad. It has much in common with several of my favorite movies. I laughed and cried and highly recommend it.
