Loners

This movie was so much fun. Totally makes you without trying too hard. I have no idea what the nut job review with gun stats is talking about. This movie is smart but doesn't write checks that can't cash. Highly recommended.

Let's be honest. I didn't go into a "micro-budget" (who knew there were even MICRO budgets! is that like my clothes shopping budget?) indie film expecting an Oscar. But I watched it and OMG I actually laughed out loud and kind of fell in love with this team of misfits.

(can I please have a girls night with Frannie and Senise? I'll up my wardrobe game ASAP).

The movie is a satire, so if you are into satires - GO WATCH THIS. If you don't get satires (and don't like poking fun at fake-IKEA) - go watch something else. This movie is about what happens when a government is more willing to scapegoat real people with real lives than actually solve its problems. Hello... timely.

It was so much fun seeing that Walking Dead King Ezekiel guy in such a wacky role. And Stephen Tobolowsky! Dude! How'd they get him in here? He's awesome! The acting is overall just so good so watch the movie for that.

Support independent films and watch them!! This one will entertain you and give you the feels and also provide some intellectual social commentary on what happens in our daily lives.

Loners is a fun, heartfelt movie about a group of people just wanting to be themselves and who just might need to learn to lean on each other for support in spite of their desires to be alone. We all have a little bit of each of these characters in ourselves, or know someone in our lives who are Loners. This is not a political film, it's a satire, a good watch, has a great score, and fun characters with a fun little twist.

In this day in which the "incel" and his tendency to open fire on humans runs parallel to hideous governmental overreach, art has finally accepted its satirical charge by addressing both in Eryc Tramonn's brilliant social comedy, "Loners."

In an absurdist response to acts of violence, the dystopian government of "Loners" logically concludes that the introverts prone to perpetuating these acts need aggressive socialization -- they need friends, and the kind of friends who will keep them under tight authoritarian watch. You'll know a Loner when you see one, because they're adorned with a curiously hotwired headband accompanied by the billboarded letter "L." Socialize, Loners, or you'll be "disappeared." Awesome.

Accompanied by outstanding acting from Brian Letcher, Tyson Turrou, David Christian Welborn, and Melissa Paladino, the writing is top shelf, leveraging subcutaneous dark comedy which often breaks the surface with truly informed hilarity. "Loners" is a master class in subtle, biting, and socially telling comedy.

I didn't know what to expect from this film, but was delightfully surprised.

The premise is unique - individuals who consider themselves introverts are deemed a threat to society. Why? Because the stories we hear of mass shootings are typically perpetrated by .... "loners."

The cast is quirky and fun.

The concept gets you thinking.

Definitely worth a watch!
