I Met a Girl

A watchable exploration of mental illness and its impact on family. While the acting is mostly good, and the cinematic shots are beautiful, it's a fairly predictable story, mostly revolving around a boy and his search for the classic manic pixie dream girl, who may or may not be a result of his mental illness.

I met a girl is a well directed and produced film with a great cast. The films characters are likable including the main star whos dealing with the struggles of mental illness and trying to separate what's real and what's not. The movie has it's sweet moments and dramatic moments but all in all this movie is great film to watch.

I only watched this coz I saw Brendon Thwaits (Devon) was in it. I was pleasantly surprised. The actors were superb, the script was heartfelt and the scenery was inspired. I also really appreciated a lead with a mental illness. Worth the watch!

A tricky endeavor to depict mental illness alongside romance - it's a relief that the reality of the illness, as well as the lead's strife to adapt with it, are prioritized over the romance. None of that "love cures all" BS.

Brenton Thwaites does a incredible job playing his character in this film as a young man with schizophrenia.The film has all kinds of layers of romance,sadness,drama,and sweet heartfelt moments.The film does not shy away from his schizophrenia showing the true way of what it's like to live with a illness like that but at the same time also showing that it can be controlled if taken care of the right way. This film is a film for all people to learn and grow knowing no matter who you are or what your situation is in life that there's always hope.
