I Think I'm Sick

I liked the film, the acting was good. Good storyline, always something happening. Unpredictable ending. Not a feel good movie but makes you value life. Good job on a first movie people, love the YouTube content! Looking forward to seeing more films.

The film is set in an American high school. A suicidal boy embarks on making friends. You follow hin through a busy semester.

If I would need to criticise anything: Sound track in opening is a bit too much, the scene where Will goes to the shower his towel is on his shoulder but in the next cut it disappears and in one scene where Will is talking to the girls dad the seems to be a dead pixel. These are all of course all very minor details but I dunno this review needs to be long.

Good movie!

This film proves to anyone who doubts it just how much subtlety a well-written, carefully-crafted, beautifully performed film can carry.

Danny Gevirtz trusts that we can reach the right conclusions without needing to have everything spelled out for us or hitting us over the head with the Message Hammer. When dealing with subjects like these (and the trigger warnings are VERY important), that's even more vital than in other films. The subtlety and artistry with which this movie is made is remarkable.

As an indie film (and one without major distribution at the time of writing) there's a near-zero chance it'll enter the race for Oscars, BAFTAs, Golden Globes etc. But that's too bad for the awards voters: they're missing something very, very special.

This should be on every film school curriculum and in every filmmakers' library as proof positive you don't need to treat your audience like idiots to get your point across.

Wow! What a powerful movie. Tia's performance...especially that one scene (watch the movie, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about), UNBELIEVABLE. Connor's performance was great. Whoever played Spanky, amazing. Everyone was good. The cinematography, beautiful. The sound design, beautiful. This movie has one of the most heart wrenching scenes I've ever seen. I don't cry a lot from movies, but I look like a waterfall right now. This as a debut film is mind blowing. Deserved all the awards it won and wouldn't have been surprised if it won more. Well done Danny and crew! Can't wait to rewatch it.

Danny Gervirtz masterfully delivered a film that resonates deeply with anyone who has grappled with mental health issues or witnessed their effects firsthand.

The cast performances seemed authentic and vulnerable. Each scene is infused with raw emotion and dark humor, creating a compelling and immersive viewing experience.

The movie shows an unflinching portrayal of the struggles and triumphs of those living with mental illness. The storyline navigates self-discovery, acceptance, and the search for meaning amidst chaos, leaving a lasting impact.

Overall, the storytelling is phenomenal- showcasing the director's vision and talent. It's a film that speaks to the human experience in a profound and unforgettable way, and I truly can't wait for what Danny has in store next!

Director Danny Gervirtz and his team of incredibly talented actors and crew, told a story that we can all relate to one way or another, even at its darkest moments. The film dives deep into mental health and allows us as the viewer to feel ways that normally we may push aside, but through humor it sheds a bit of hope that everything is okay. The cinematography is outstanding. You can tell they took time and effort into building compositions that helped push the story along and helped convey desired emotions. Sound design and music were moving but not overbearing. The pacing is excellent. I truly was sucked in to this movie. At no point did I feel like they wasted time. PERFECTION. Excellent film.
