Good Bad Things

I must say I loved this movie. "Good Bad Things" is more than just a love story; it's a testament to resilience, the pursuit of happiness, and the universal desire to be seen and loved for who we truly are. My partner and I watched it on Amazon and laughed and cried. This film is a beautiful reminder that, despite life's challenges, love remains a powerful and transformative force.

I hope that more films like this are made. A talented cast. Beautiful filmmaking. Raw and honest. As an artist, I must say, I loved the way creativity became the driving force that united the lovers. I highly recommend this movie.

It's not often I come across a movie that feels this human "Good Bad Things" is a rare gem that speaks to the heart, and it left quite an impression on me. What truly stood out was how it didn't gloss over the intricacies of human connections and perceptions. I found myself drawn into the story, particularly the friendship between Danny and Jasone film touched on universal themes - love, acceptance, vulnerability - in a way that resonated with me.

Danny Kurtzman's authenticity was refreshing. It wasn't acting; it was living. He brought the day-to-day reality of muscular dystrophy to the screen in a way that felt genuine and empowering.

I just watched good bad things last weekend and I must say that the movie is beautifully acted and beautifully shot and even though there are problems in my opinion with the real portrayal of disability in the film, I would have loved to see more negotiation of the main characters care between the two main characters who were lovers. The emotions were real and raw and hit all in the right places for me I also like the fact that the main character was portrayed as a successful entrepreneur and even though this isn't the reality for most disabled people who live on social assistance of some kind it gives me the hope for the future that one day the world will see us this way.

I fell in love with the characters in this movie. Strong, original storyline and loads of charismatic actors. But the difference-maker is the sensitive and patent direction. It moves with swiftness, humor, pain, and beauty, and I came to see the world very differently at movie's end. The film tracks a few casual days in an extraordinary man's life and before long I came to understand why all those around him love him so much. This movie is about love, about triumph of spirit, and about the strengths we draw from our family and friends during our darkest times. I laughed and cried. One of my most favorite movies ever. A must see!

I learned about this film via Squirmy & Grubs' YouTube channel and I believe that they helped to produce it. I agree that the acting was good and appreciate the message and portrayal of an interabled relationship that was shared. But the main character was too serious for me- he did not really smile or laugh at all in the film and I didn't know if that was just his personality or part of his disability. His disability type was not disclosed in the film. Anyway, he just seemed depressed to me, and maybe he was, but even when he was with his love interest he seemed sad. I still enjoyed the film overall but wanted to see more affect from Danny.

Seeing a person with disabilities act in a film is a big plus though. You often see professional actors without disabilities playing people with disabilities and I have mixed feelings about that. I would rather see people with disabilities acting in the film or show instead. This film could open more doors and make it easier for people with disabilities to get into the film industry. I cannot imagine how hard it must be. Anyway, I couldn't decide whether to give this a 7 or 8. Guess 7.5 if that is an option. Still recommend.
