Spontaneous

It had me in horror. It had me laughing out loud. It had me crying softly. It had me in awe. I felt for the main charaters. And that's what I want from a movie. I loved it. I can't compare it to any other movie. And that's good in my opinion. Go watch and enjoy.

And if you think this is the worst movie of the year, or your life, you should probably watch more movies.

This isn't a comedy or a horror movie. It's a teen drama. I get what they were trying to do. This is supposed to be a metaphor for life but it doesn't really work. We get it, life is random and sad things happen and we don't know why but that's not why you watch a movie in which teens spontaneously explode. Why them? Why is it happening? Why did it suddenly stop? There's no conclusion to this movie other then the metaphor. It doesn't work and it makes no sense. Life is random and it sucks but oh, it's so great to be alive? Kind of a dumb conclusion if you ask me but whatever.

The cast is ok, they are definitely trying but unfortunately it's not funny, it's not scary and to be honest I was bored for the majority of the movie. Can't recommend it. Sorry.

Btw, Longford should stop playing the teen. She's 26 y/o and she is talented enough to take more serious roles.

I was not expecting this movie to have such metaphorical depth of story, I was blindsided with emotion. The soundtrack makes it feel brilliantly real and resonating.

I watched this movie on April 13th of 2021, a day on which I couldn't muster myself out of bed, my energy and depression being mentally crippling. I saw symbolism to the stigmatic topic of suicide, and I was blown away by the courage of the creators behind this movie to hint towards that epidemic at all. Beautifully executed in my opinion. I watched it again with my 15 year old son, and he was well overcome with emotion as well. Thank you, for sharing this creation. I'm grateful. It made me feel... Alive.

I liked it. A welcome tongue in cheek high school comedy-ish (a black comedy, moreso) about seniors Mara and Dylan, who finally begin to date after their classmates randomly begin to explode. It sounds like a horror feature, but it's really not. It's more like a nod to the old hippie song "Live for Today," because the kids aren't promised a tomorrow, so why not do what you want today? I say kids, but the rest of the senior class is mere window dressing; our story is firmly about our featured couple, luckily played with great fervor by Katherine Langford and Charlie Plummer. We're not looking at great depth, but it's a sweet romance, mildly thought provoking, and nakedly honest look at young adult awakening, and life is general. We could all remember to enjoy more of today, and worry less about tomorrow. Recommended.

Make today the first day of the rest of your life, live every day as if it's your last, seize the day, seize the moment - but does it really matter or make any difference and can you really do anything about it. That all depends on your nihilistic tendencies which, after watching this, may have become increasingly acute.
