Killing Mary Sue

Had so much fun watching this film that was filled with surprising, clever, and laugh out loud moments all throughout. Creative, original, funny, dark and truly entertaining alongside excellent performances by the cast. I went in to the movie knowing nothing about it and surely didn't expect the wild ride that ensued. In a world where movies are increasingly re-makes or derivatives of other ideas it was so refreshing to watch something that was so novel in both its inception and execution. I look forward to watching again to catch many of the nuances that I most assuredly missed the first time around.

What a wild ride! Lol! This movie was creative storytelling + fantastic acting + great niche references ("Stop sweeping my leg!") + dark humor + a couple of hilarious punny names.

Bravo to all involved, in particular Sierra McCormick who killed it (literally and figuratively), Dermot Mulroney who captured the annoyed and aggrieved politician so poetically in this era, and James Sunshine, writer / editor / director. Although the tone of the film does not match his name, it was certainly a BRIGHT and well executed story!!

There is quite a bit of violence (as the name might suggest! Haha!), but my distaste for that is on me, not the film! The humor FAR outweighed the body count! Well done!!!

Writer, director, Editor James Sunshine has a carnival in his head and he's put it all into this fantastic movie. Centering around an unwitting yet apt female hero, this movie will make you laugh out loud and make you cover your eyes from the horror, all in the same 10 seconds. This movie is very well cast with the likes of Martin Cove, Dermot Mulrooney, and Katie Killiacky, supporting-the breakout performance of actress Sierra McCormick as Mary Sue. This film won best picture at the Los Angeles independent film festival just last month, and I predict we'll be seeing big things from this director in the future. Very well done!

"Killing Mary Sue" was such a fun journey from beginning to end. The story keeps unfolding in unexpected ways, constantly surprising you. There are some surreal moments that really elevate the dark comedy and make it even funnier and more exciting. It's sharp, well-written, well-directed, and the performances really sell it. Definitely worth watching-I recommend it!

Killing Mary Sue" is a fun, fast-paced movie that's perfect to watch with a group of friends. I saw it in a packed theater during the LA Film Festival and had an absolute blast-can't recommend it enough. The performances are strong across the board, and the writing and editing are sharp, keeping you on the edge of your seat with no dull moments.

If you're expecting a heavy-handed political message, this probably isn't the film for you. But if you're in the mood for something that pokes fun at everyone equally and leans into absurdity purely for entertainment's sake, Killing Mary Sue is right up your alley. I wouldn't be surprised if it becomes more popular as word spreads.
