I Love My Dad

People these days are zone focused on superhero films. That all fine and well but when your aren't on that wave and you want something different and new this film gives you that. It's funny, sad, maddening and heartfelt. James Morosini I applaud you for putting yourself out there.

My family spent a good amount of time trying to find a movie to watch. After watching the trailer to "I Love My Dad", we thought this was going to be a fun, and hilarious movie. Well, unfortunately, all the best jokes are in the trailer. And since you already seen these jokes, there is nothing left to laugh at. "I Love My Dad" is closer to a drama than a comedy. It is a drama that is hard to relate to because the situation is bizarre. The texting conversations show how the son visualizes the girl, which makes the movie more watchable than if it just took place over texting. As a drama, I don't think the movie works.

I only stumbled across this as it was featured on Sky, so I thought I'd give it a go. I never read what this was about, but man was I surprised!

This is really awkward to watch, based on the theme, but this is a seriously great movie with a brilliant cast. Edgy, funny and to think this was based on true events that the director experienced, makes this movie is more great to watch.

In the world of mobile phones, they can be a saviour or our biggest enemy, as this movie demonstrates. A very dark comedy that will keep you on the edge of your seats from start to finish. Highly recommended but be warned!

Congratulations to the director and writer of this film for steering his movie down the delicate path to land this story.

It came across as honest, and I forgot I was watching famous stand up comedian Patton Oswalt and cast and instead got immersed in a far fetched but believable story. They sold it well and the motives of the characters were true all the way through.

The acting and direction were spot on, and the script took you places you didn't feel comfortable going but pulled it off each time, turning in a very funny and very human story that felt real and had something to say and worthy messages and thoughts to offer.

Also of note was the editing and music choices, and the inventive way it chose to deal with the text conversations. It worked really well, and allowed the actors to shine.

This really is a standout story and film, a challenging movie in a sea of predictable and shallow visual candy.

Well done to everyone who made this movie and got this movie made. I hope it gets the viewing audience it deserves.

Yes, it's super cringe, it has moments of hilarity and moments of sad, but it's all from a good place.

Great acting throughout and pacing of the film was spot on. Also enjoyed the soundtrack, particularly the acoustic piece for the end credits by Sonoda.

Definitely give this a watch if you fancy something different. Perhaps not suited to those easily offended.

Didn't really want to say anything other than that, but it's saying: Sorry, your review is too short. It needs to contain at least 600 characters.

Yep, it's still saying: Sorry, your review is too short. It needs to contain at least 600 characters.
