Ratings and reviews

at first I was a bit unsure what I was watching, especially in the beginning. but oh my goodness I'm glad i watched this through! it had me laughing out loud, and I just loved how raw the acting and filmmaking stood out, especially Jim Cummings! i hope to see more of his performances and works! it's a good story! Highly recommend it :)!

I don't know if I'd consider this a comedy, maybe in the darkest sense of the word, but I will admit it had me laughing a few times between all the tears I was spilling. This is a beautiful movie, and perhaps one of the best I've ever seen. The acting is beautiful, the dialogue feels natural and realistic, the writing is wonderful, the camera shots are so well framed. Everything about this movie is gorgeous and done so wonderfully. Perhaps the biggest problem with this movie is that by the end I was wanting more when there was none left. Give this movie a try, I promise you that you won't regret it.

Comedy that makes you truly laugh, drama that rips out your guts, and a character that's so original yet relatable you'd never believed it was the writer/director.
