Tudo é Possível

Anything's Possible is a cute young adult film. I think that it has some strengths like the cinematography, the storyline, and the costume design yet the acting falls a little flat for the main characters. Sometimes the lines would be delivered too flat and sounded amateurish. Overall it doesn't distract from too much of the film. I like Billy Porter's direction with the film and thought he tried to show a new type of romance involving a trans teenager and her life. I think the conflict was somewhat realistic but was wrapped up too quickly. I think the movie wanted to be wholesome yet dramatic but it came off as rushed. Long story short, decent film for those who love young adult romance.

I smiled through this whole movie. I grew up watching most of the coming-of-age movies of my generation. We had Clueless, American Pie, Project X, Mean Girls, 21 and Over, and many more. They all have these hidden but beautiful messages about courage. These movies touched on themes such as love, friendship, the feeling of the unknown approaching fast, and the struggle each of us had with moving on to the next step. Anything's Possible touches on all these themes and does it well. It is an excellent story about self-awareness, identity, and acceptance. It tells us to look beyond the expectations of our society, parents, friends, and even ourselves. To be brave and take a leap to love, and believe that being loved and falling in love does not know any boundaries.

The lead actress and the supporting cast are incredibly talented. The actress playing the mom is fantastic. Eva Reign is not only gorgeous but a skilled actress not afraid to showcase her raw emotions and tell us about her generation's struggles.

The script does not to be too complex and Billy Porter masterfully tells the story of finding love in senior year and going through all the drama that comes with being different. My advice to my fellow movie lovers is to look at this movie unbiasedly and focus on its intended audience. This movie focuses on friendship, love, acceptance, and growth. It does not try to force any messages down our throats or pander, so even boomers may enjoy it.

My biggest struggle growing up was to be accepted. Growing up as a minority and not being represented in my community was very tough. It makes me so happy to see that a young black woman and a middle eastern boy are the lead in this movie. Things are changing for the better, and I pray for acceptance and love for all.

Anything's Possible is a movie that begins with a slightly intriguing concept trying to make us invest into it from the get-go. Right in the first act thing that mostly catches your attention is the plot and until the end of the third act that pretty much stays the same. The characters play their part as good eye-catcher but most of the time misses the shots. Talking about the story everything that gets thrown at you gets easily unfolded, where most of it either stands quite predictable and the rest of it stays a bit obvious. Director Billy Porter tried to gather some vibrant resources and form a stable harmony but it keeps getting startled as it moves on from the first to the last act. Editing and screenplay needed more time to invest in along with the writing department. All in all Anything's Possible stands as something you can try adding to your list to watch but it will probably be added as a one-time watch.

You can tell some really hard work went into this picture and the actors gave it their all. Glad i was able to watch it because I learned some things that I didn't know before. No excuse to blame mainstream society for not covering your community; make a movie on your own terms!

I've been watching coming of what age movies since I was coming of age in the 1970s. This is a very nice addition to the genre with the typical best friend breakup, shifting allegiances, etc., of high school dramas seen through more tolerant, but still fraught, gender issues of today. Richie Cunningham never had to deal with such things.

I'm a substitute teacher in southwest Ohio bouncing from rural to urban schools, and if you don't think that there are LGBTQ kids in your school you're mistaken.

The actors are young and charming and the city of Pittsburgh looks great. Although as a native Pittsburgh I know those characters are on the wrong bus to get to their destinations! Look for the Billy Porter (the director) mural and stay for the High School Musical inspired closing credits.
