Don't Say It

Really cute and fun indie romcom. The performances and characters were very sincere, and the writing was pretty top notch. It lacks a certain professionalism that most films with a budget have, but that adds to this very genuine vibe the movie gives off. You can tell this came from a very real place from the filmmakers and that there was truly a lot of love put into this story.

I also greatly appreciated how the topics of mental health issues were breached. It does border a bit on cartoonish at points, but it is rather difficult to showcase the idea they were going for so I commend the attempt.

Watching this movie makes you feel a connection for both the main characters. Their problems are struggles relate to one another which makes the movie really sweet to watch.

One thing I really liked about this movie was that the script was really well written. In some movies, everything seems forced (even though it's kind supposed to be), but this movie seems smooth and doesn't seemed force at all. The main characters meet in a good and smooth fashion that doesn't seem forced at all.

Also, I am a big comedy person, so when this movie made me laugh, I already knew it was a good movie. 100% enjoyable watch and would recommend to anyone interested in this genre!

This is one rom com you don't want to skip over. The cast does an incredible job of telling a very genuine feeling story. I found myself laughing and crying along with them throughout their journey.

Rich Grosso writing is incredible and so is his acting. I love the way they shot these scenes, it is beautifully shot.

I am not a big rom com fan, but this one has definitely won me over. It is really amazing the great films and talented actors that you find in the indie market.

I can not wait to watch more of Rich Grosso's work.

I was also excited to see included in this solid cast Spencer Breslin!

Make no mistake this is not a big budget Hollywood release. What this is however, is an Indie film that flies above much of what the Hollywood machine turns out.

The film does take a good minute to get started, but as you settle in these characters quickly become familiar friends. Pat and Lara aren't your typical rom-com characters, they are human with all the baggage and frailties that often come with middle age.

Both needing a push to get out of their funk and live life, they meet in the old fashioned way in a bar...

As the characters, both hesitant, open up to each other, they begin to bare the wounds life has bestowed. At this point you can't help but to cheer them on.

Rich Grosso's 'Pat' is a man who's past mistakes haunt him and Victoria Kelleher's 'Lara' is the perfect middle aged woman trying to figure out the next chapter.

The rest of the cast are perfectly placed, and the TV newsman and Pat's ex are not to be missed.

No spoiler alerts here, but if you like a good rom-com, this one actually has characters that are human.

This movie was created with a lot of feeling and thought. The characters were well developed throughout the film and multiple aspects of the main characters were presented well. In particular, the attractive feature of this movie is that the audience can relate to the multiple realistic roles as well as the feelings that the actors brought to the screen. It seamlessly tackles multiple human challenges such as domestic relationships, dreams, goals, family dynamics and working hard to achieve your destiny. More than anything, I like how the movie concludes with the feeling that "nice guys can finish first". Take the time to watch this movie. It is worth it.
