Linkshoch Wonderful Movie

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Sharkflei Your blood may run cold, but you now find yourself pinioned to the story.

Sanjeev Waters A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

soumyadeepkoley Hands down the best movie I have watched. As a psychotherapist myself, this wonderful movie has lent me a new perspective on life and mental illness. Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Depression and PTSD (a type of anxiety disorder) have been depicted so perfectly, it doesn't have a precedent in entertainment media. Brittany Snow's acting was flawless. Serene soundtrack and impeccable direction has made the movie even more awesome! It's like the movie is an internship in itself. Need I praise more?

jessg32 I caught this movie on Lifetime recently and started watching it since I work in social services. The vignette on Schizophrenia was hard to swallow and seemed unrealistic. Not to say that a person with Schizophrenia can't recover or have less symptoms, but I think the movie could've shown a better or more realistic image of schizophrenia if they were going to bother to put it in the film. The average onset age of Schizophrenia in women is 25 and Brittney Snow's character discusses being a teenager with Schizophrenia. Despite this, the movie also focuses on depression, PTSD and bipolar disorder in a more realistic manner. Mental illness still has such a negative stigma, it is great to see a movie try to shed some light on what a person with mental illness' life is like. Hopefully those who watch it can feel some empathy for the main characters and their families.

piperkaren This is the first time I have seen a film realistically depict what a mentally ill person's life is like and how it effects others through the interactions of normal daily living. I place primary significance on this in that it is of great value in promoting awareness of mental illness in society today. As with much that has social stigma attached, learning about the basics eases the path to enlightenment. Mental illnesses touch all of our lives in some way and so much burden can be eased by replacing bias with understanding. I applaud this film for keeping it simple enough that you may from time to time question what is crazy.

cynjy Sensitive and very well done. All of the brain disorders were clearly defined. Bi Polar, schizophrenia, depression, PTSD, and how these families cope and are emotionally affected. This series of movies gives the patients and families hope. I wish they would also deal with Borderline Personality albeit extremely difficult to diagnose. It is obvious by the quality of the actors that these are issues that we all can hope to deal with effectively.Congrats for shedding light on such sensitive issues.
