One of those you don't except anything and you're going out from the movie theatre with such a mixed feeling. But not a mix of positive and negative but mix of laughter and emotional crying. It started almost ridiculously funny and ended with such A burst of emotions.

It's not so common old story of a girl with daddy issues. She has no mother and with that kind of father she has, she probably would have better without. She is the Politest young woman you can think of and seems like nothing is bothering her, towards her environment, but inside, she is a volcano Waiting to erupt.

Once Lilly, the protagonist and movie's main character, finds herself an internet friend, that becomes kind of substitute dad, it seems a little bit odd. But both Barbie Ferreira and John Leguizamo makes it feel so authentic and real, that it is like the story slides into the audience hearts so easily and naturally.

This story is based on a true story of Tracie Laymon, the director of this movie. It is well shown when the movie is directed in an intimate and very personal way. It seems that Laymon really put her heart in this project. It is her debut as a director with a full featured movie and if this is her first milestone in the industry, we can except great things and future from this marvelous creator.

The chemistry between Leguizamo and Ferreira is special. It is something that we don't usually see in other movies. Its not perfect, but both actors do such a good job to patch things up and make it work. Its all authentic and so moving when both actors meet and just enjoy their time together. It easily breaks walls or cinematic curtains and leaks to the audience.

I'm not watching "Euphoria" and don't really remember Barbie Ferreira from "Nope" (she actually had a small part in this movie), but in this current movie, she is has just melted my heart. Leguizamo is at one of his best parts ever and both, as mentioned earlier, make this story sell and work almost perfectly, to create one of the surprising movies lately.

A sweet, genuinely funny movie about the impact a friendship can have on lives. Tracie Laymon's film, inspired by her own experiences, is the kind of story indie movies were made to tell: character-driven, rooted in real emotion, and life-affirming. And again, it's really funny!

The cast is phenomenal. Barbie Ferreira is the standout, an extraordinary, layered performance, but John Leguizamo is pitch perfect as a kind man making an unexpected friend. French Stewart shows a side many haven't seen from him before, as a narcissistic, neglectful dad, but even within that role, his comic instincts mine hilarious moments. Rachel Bay Jones and Lauren 'Lolo' Spencer round the film out with really excellent turns.

I saw this at Seattle International Film Festival, and the packed crowd laughed and sniffled through tears, then gave Laymon a standing ovation. I hope it finds distribution soon!

When I describe the plot of Bob Trevino Like It, I feel like I'm describing a proverbial Hallmark movie. However, there's zero cheese and no romance which is great.

The movie is based on the writer and director's real life experience. During a period when her father refused to talk to her, the protagonist searches for her father on Facebook. Send ends up sending a friend request to another man with the same name as her father. He begins to like her posts. Though she quickly realizes he is not her actual father, he innocently befriends her and this friendship ends up transforming her life.

As mentioned, there's no romance in this movie. This turns out to be great for this film. Romance is obviously one of the most emotional aspects of most of our lives which is why so many films include it. But a large part of our lives doesn't involve romance. So, it's great to see a film which doesn't feel compelled to go that route. It's also great for a film to depict a deep and meaningful friendship between and man and woman without it being sexual.

I'm not an expert, but I couldn't find anything to criticize about the movie. I thought it so good that it is only the 4th film I've ever rated 10/10.

Straight after watching it I had to write this review. First, Ferreira was amazing in this, and indeed all the actors were great. Really film was about a woman who was abandoned as a child by her mother, and raised by an uncaring and selfish father. She gets by, but is lonely. On the internet she meets a guy with the same name as her father, and he shows her platonic love.

I loved the original story, and the demonstration of caring between people who are all suffering with their own problems. A beautifully crafted film. Nice cinematography, beautifullly emotive. Such a touching film and for me a real gem. While sad, it shows a real positive aspect to humam hearts. Please watch this, it's great.
