Another Girl

Come on people, if you're going to lie about the worth of a flick in order to con people into watching it, don't cluster all of the lies in one month. And don't make them all a perfect score. At best this flick is disposable, at worst it is a waste of the viewer's time. When I make a mistake I admit it. (Maybe my parents raised me too well...). The bottom line is that this...thing...is mediocre at best, but those scoring it beyond a 2 or 3 (a 1 to me) are either lying outrageously to pump up the score or completely delusional. In the former case they are idiots deserving of contempt; in the latter case they are in need of real help. A final word of advice to IMDB followers: Always look for the lowest scores as an honest start to evaluation....

I wasn't sure what to expect from this movie but it wasn't bad. Had some good moments. The narration was a bit odd though and sometimes I couldn't tell who was actually talking as they both sounded very similar. My fav part was Dave, love Peter as an actor since QOTS. Without him would I have enjoyed it as much? Maybe not but was pretty good.

As "Another Girl" (2021 release; 95 min.) opens, we get to know Elle, a 20-something woman. She just finished a fiction book written by Katie, one of the book's characters. For reasons unknown, Katie has a website where one can email her. Elle decides to email Katie. Some days late, lo and behold, Katie responds! How is that possible? Just as Elle is getting super excited, the book's publisher emails Elle that this was all fake... At this point we are 15 min into the movie.

Couple of comments: this is the movie adaptation of the book of the same name by Allison Burnett (in fact, a guy). Burnett also directs the film. I had never heard of this Allison Burnett before, or of the book. I cam only tell you what I experienced while watching this. Bottom line: it was not a good experience. The story didn't make any sense whatsoever. To market this as a "thriller" is frankly misleading. It feels more like a YA story. Samantha Hanratty plays the lead role of Elle, and tries with the weak material she is given. She of course also stars in the recent (and very enjoyable) mini-series "Yellowjackets". Please note: I never realized while watching this film that it is in fact a sequel to an earlier film called "Undiscovered Gyrl". I only found out about it when I looked up Allison Burnett after seeing this. I have no idea if I would've enjoyed this better had I seen the prior film. I kinda doubt it.

"Another Film was suggested to me by Showtime, presumably because I recently watched "What Breaks the Ice", which I quite enjoyed. Turns out to be an erroneous recommendation! But hey, don't take my word for it, so check out "Another Girl", and draw your own conclusion.

Movie of an estranged kind of life , for the grumpy old man to phatom due to 2 generation of technological and sociological development that has passed me by in the sideglance, and a story about the introvertiness and dependency on digital devices to maintain a full worth lifestyle, spiced up with sex and beauty, peppered with some mental issues, pretty intense psychology that might be hard to swallow for some viewers, because this is a more common lifestory among the young ones than you think.

Its voices in the head, its selfharming, even suicide attempts, its the constant feeling of being controlled and punished by the ones you unfold your life for, a splendid mix of fact of fiction and desillusions. But the story ends unfortunatelly in a big wet thundery question style, could that mean a secondary sequele will come in the near future???

Well its filmographical quality are amazing, so is the musical score, and the physical acts by the main cast. So if you feel bewildered in the start , youll be even worse in the end, its hard to seperate facts from fiction, and a tiny little timeline could easily have helped a lot, cause there are some flashback to put in the trolly. Even though that said, you wont get braindamaged to watch this, cause its actuality in true life excists. A should see movie for all under 40. A recommend.

Have you ever had a conversation w/ someone you knew thought you were a total idiot? That is this story. A man who definitely thinks women are stupid wrote about stupid women, badly. Sad to watch.
