Featured reviews
I have struggled immensely with my mental health over the past 12 years and on a lesser scale the other 29 years of my life. I have had countless therapy sessions, more often than not with one of the sit there and listen, but don't contribute therapists Jonah and Phill discuss near the start of the movie and whilst they were great at allowing me to vent, the only therapists that truly made an impact on me, were the ones who would have an actual conversation with me, call me on my issues and help me explore ways I can improve my life.
Stutz is the perfect example of this method of therapy and I am so grateful for this movie and the wisdom it imparts on us.
Whilst the cinematography, editing and pacing of the movie are all great, what makes Stutz truly remarkable is the vulnerability and truthfulness found within Jonah and Phill's relationship. You can really feel the openness, love and respect between these two people, which allows us as the viewer to be honest with our own answers to the questions posited throughout.
I doubt either of them will ever see this comment, but to Jonah and Phill, if you do see this, I just want to say, thank you. I related to so many of the stories and thoughts that you both shared and even found myself crying when responding to some of the questions you asked. I hope that this reaches as many people as possible and that people gain as much from it as I have.

I recommend everyone watch this movie. I respect Jonah Hill so much for making this, especially in todays climate, and also for being a MALE raising awareness on the tremendous help and importance that therapy provides. There are so few resources available to people who need mental health support, and many of those resources available are crazy expensive or therapists are booked solid with clients. This film is for everyone. We all struggle sometimes. This made me cry, laugh, and take notes. I will go back to this movie every time I feel the need for a therapy session. It also reminded me of my relationship with my counselor that I went to for ten years. Bless Jonah and Stutz. What a gift of a film.
This was really what i needed seeing things from a different angle. Second opinion. Different way to look at things. Learning to accept things we cannot change and live with it. It was really good i couldn't stop myself from crying. They should do like series of each method!!! Not everyone can afford to seek help and this would be an amazing way a platform to reach out to people. It feels comforting to know that we are not alone to feel this way. Everyone is going through things in a million different ways. I wish i had a chance to sit and talk or have a session with Phil Stutz!
Thank you Jonah Hill!!! And Phil Stutz.
Thank you Jonah Hill!!! And Phil Stutz.
Such a thought provoking and powerful documentary, that has personally given me some excellent tools to use in life; and help me work through issues from the past myself. Many different issues are explained simply and approaches detailed that are easy to follow and incorporate daily.
Although the documentary wasn't about me at all, I could really relate to so much throughout. Simple and enjoyable watch that was easy to follow and real in content.
Really grateful that this documentary was made for the difference it will make to many peoples lives, and a great view of your lives and strong bond that is captured forever.

I don't go to therapy. But this was kind of like going to a therapist. I paused it at several points to think about my answers (for instance my shadow). It made me think a lot about things I haven't let myself focus on and it was helpful to address those things internally and this gave me an outlet to do that. I appreciate the honesty shown by both Jonah and his therapist. Great job, great film. So rare to see truth captured like this I was really surprised how much I enjoyed it. Even if therapy isn't your thing I recommend giving this a shot I think it would surprise even the biggest cynic. The tools given are really life changing again I'm super grateful this was made.
