Moving Day

Charlie Murphy and Will Sasso team up for an amazingly touching story about the hardship of daily life in modern times. I wouldn't say it's the best of its kind, but it does a good job of portraying the life and relationships of the main character. The two actors really give some of their best work in this film. It's heartwarming and helps fill the block of where the manual labor-heavy workers' minds go during their lives as proletariat of their time. I think the loss of Charlie Murphy in 2017 was horrible. I wish Will Sasso did more parts like these. The director is famous for doing "The Trailer Park Boys."

This movie is great! The humor in Moving Day is eccentric. The cast is great. There is a pleasant balance between humor and 'drama'. The style and setting is original. There are super retro features in this movie (or is this typical Canadian?). Key components of Moving Day are friendship and loyalty. We loved the dog Little Buddy. Moving day really works the pathos! I did not want to miss a minute of this movie. Funny, touching and eccentric, really worthwhile watching. I normally do not enter many reviews. But we are flabbergasted by some negative reviews and the low rating of this movie. Which is totally unfair. Watch, enjoy and feel Good!

When this film was recommended to me, I thought it was going to be a slapstick-laden comedy and I was reluctant to start watching it. The first few minutes seem to confirm my worries, but the film shifted under me and became a heartwarming story about Clyde's reassessment of his life and his attempt to make something better of himself.

There's a, well, not so much anti-establishment, but more a tone of not having to accept lousy jobs at lousy wages and lousy working conditions and that sometimes we have to be strong enough and brave enough to branch out into the unknown, cast ourselves free from our safety net of stagnation and try something new.

At a point when Clyde's only friendship seems to be coming to an end, there's a definite slant towards showing us that every ending can also be considered a new beginning, and sometimes it's only when life is dark that we can see the light leading us to new things and new experiences.

I was worried that the ending might throw me for a loop, but the ending was really good and I enjoyed the film greatly.

I would watch this again.

I thoroughly enjoyed this great little movie. Was not expecting a blockbuster (thank god, especially after the train wreck better known as The Dark Knight Rises), and got exactly what I was hoping for. Witty, endearing and quite enjoyable. WILL SASSO SHOULD WIN AN Oscar FOR THIS!! (kidding). But I can find fewer more pleasant things to do in downtown Toronto on a soggy, muggy summer afternoon. The cast was great and the script, although a bit light, is nonetheless lighthearted. Cheers to cast and director and the great city of Halifax (which I visited once). Look out for a great performance by the doyenne of east coast comedy, Cathy Jones.

I have NO idea why this is getting a 5.1??? Wtf People?? I watch a ton of movies, and I rarely feel moved to write a review, but I just gotta say, I loved this movie! Will Sasso and Charlie Murphy stole the show, but the rest of the cast did a wonderful job as well. They portrayed a great, loving friendship, it really made the movie. It's one of those movies that,with just a bit of wrong direction,casting and writing, and bad acting, could've easily been a total bomb. Instead, what a treat! NOT a brainless comedy by ANY means (as you may think by the title, cast and basic description), but rather a very warm, well acted, intelligent, and at times, funny little movie. Whilst you may not agree with my 7, you very well may agree it's a good movie, and well worth a watch. Please, give this movie a try.
