I found this quirky film a gem. It's authentic, not pretentious.
The main character is wonderfully portrayed - he's lovable, insufferable, a brat, rude - everything that a teenager can be. His relationships with his friends, co-workers and teachers were so real and not contrived a la Hollywood.
Sometimes it goes over the top. Sometimes it's hilarious. It's about the love of movies and teenage dreams of being the next great director.
I give it an 8 because it does have a Canadian feel (a positive thing for me) and it's never boring. I'll remember it the next time I go through Aldershot!
The ending has a happy resolution - our star is growing up!

In excellent, low-key '90s-based rites-of-passage dramedy "I Like Movies" quirky (to almost 'on the spectrum' level) cinephile teen nerd Isaiah Lehtinen (off-the-scale good) dreams of NYU film school from his nondescript Canadian high school while being painfully condascending to those around him (like pal Percy Hynes White & mum Krista Bridges) before rather idolising Romina D'Ugo, his manager at the video-store job that he loves. Debut writer (and director) Chandler Levack EXCELS with his authentic script of genuine characters - all terrifically performed to give it the feel of "Clerks", but more 'real'. Stars should be born from this wonderful gem.
Another coming of age movie, nothing sensational here, but I found the characters to be way more likeble then in Lady bird or Funny pages.
Amazing detailing for those who pay attention: Canadian lore, movies references, really fitting soundtrack and costumes down to elaborated accessory and so on.
But the thing that earned my 9 stars rating is cast acting. Every one of them, even the smallest roles like school teacher or second guy in the Sequels, are real, not boring, not flat, they are interesting to watch! Such a great job! Definitely should take the Best cast in whatever award they have this nomination.
Isaiah Lehtinen, Romina D'Ugo and Percy Hynes White amazed me, made me do some revaluation of my youth and "moved me, emotionally, which I think is the highest compliment".
That's a lot to get from any movie 👏

I loved this little Canadian-made film! It's a great nerd-coming-of-age story. Even though I'm way older than any of the characters in this movie, it still somehow connected with me on the emotional level numerous times. The script is great and the acting is excellent, performed by a well-cast ensemble group. Isaiah Lehtinen did a great job in the lead. I now have a huge crush on Romina D'Ugo! The washed-out suburban no-name locations were a perfect fit for that particular story. Writer-Director Chandler Levack has a great future ahead of her. I would recommend this film to anyone who loves movies!
I encourage film lovers to get out to see I LIKE MOVIES while during its theatre run.
Writer and Director Chandler Laveck has written such compelling and complex human beings.
The lead protagonist Lawrence Kweller is at all times amusing, frustrating, unlikable and endearing. What a tough sell! Actor Isaiah Lehtinen has done a fantastic job of hitting the right notes every moment.
Others Romina D'Ugo, Krista Bridges and Percy Hynes-White's solid chemistry on screen was steadfastly convincing throughout. The film is so tight with the smallest details from art direction, costuming, language, pop culture references, character motivations and development.

- TriviaA majority of the video rental store set was obtained from an abandoned Blockbuster that had been sitting vacant for around a decade in Owen Sound, Ontario. Asbestos in the store forced the movie crew to find a different building to be the set location. They found an empty thrift shop in Ajax, Ontario and built it into the "Sequels Video" store.
- ErroresA DVD of the film Starry Eyes can be seen in a shot. The film takes place in 2002, even though Starry Eyes was released in 2014.
