The Good Half

The Good Half is a movie I wanted to like much more than I did. In fact, I usually love these types of films. But something just didn't click for me once the credits rolled. Nick Jonas is not a bad actor, but he's not great either. It doesn't help that the script isn't anything special and the dialogue is sometime laughable or not delivered in a realistic way.

Jonas plays a young man who returns home to attend his mother'a funeral once he realizes she has sadly passed. The premise is fine and I think the movie means well, but the delivery and subject matter just don't add up to anything worth noting. It's an average movie with average...everything.

The Good Half is a great film that should definitely be talked about more. It's a heart-wrenching movie about love and loss and how loved ones deal with grief after losing someone close. Nick Jonas (Renn) is phenomenal in this, he embodies his character perfectly. Brittany Snow (Leigh), Alexandra Shipp (Zoey), and Elisabeth Shue (Lily) are great in supporting roles as well. The filmmakers and actors all did a great job because this movie feels very real and authentic. Anyone who doesn't like this film or thinks it's too boring or sad, probably can't relate to it because if you've ever lost a loved one this movie captures exactly how it feels. This is definitely worth a watch. Great acting and a beautiful film!

Renn Wheeland (Nick Jonas) is flying home to Cleveland for his mother (Elisabeth Shue)'s funeral. He connects with fellow plane passenger Zoey Abbot (Alexandra Shipp). His sister Leigh Wheeland (Brittany Snow) had been caring for their mother. Their father (Matt Walsh) has been divorced and she had remarried Rick Barona (David Arquette) who is controlling the funeral.

There are moments of dark emotional explosions and broad black comedy. It can be jarring to flip from one to the other. Nick Jonas is not necessarily a great actor. He's trying. It's tough to center such a wide-ranging role. It is a little uneven, but it kept me interested.

Beautiful movie with beautiful acting. Nick surely made it all the way. It reminded me of my time when I lost my mother and i think this movie must be watched by every soul on earth to understand the feeling loosing a mother. I dont understand that why low rating, are people have become numb? Beautiful acting beautiful plot and beautiful feelings all the way. Whats wrong? This movie is filled with feelings and emotions and loosing a loved one. Should deserve an award or something. Its a movie for the people who have feelings and are alive and understand what is means to lose someone. I wish more of such movies comes in and we must care about this life which is only for once. Cheers to the team who made this movie and the idea behind this. Superb acting by all and must remember our end as well. Life is short and worth to make memories in a good way.

Boring not interesting but sad i guess i don't really know the point of thise depressed and sad movies, make no sense to me but it's ok I guess, overall its a solid time but nothing happens and that can make you feel kinda sad but its a good movie to Cry i never cry so i don't know, you need to start loving your mother and stop treating her bad ok, you own her everything so be a good kid ok my guys, overall its an interesting performance by Jonas and the rest of the cast is solid and its a good time so go watch it guys

Nick Jonas born to be an actor definitely my bias of the jonas brothers by far.
