Dynamixor The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
Allissa .Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
aquascape What supposedly was described as one of the best comedies of that year, "Don't Think Twice" instead turned out to be an average drama.Fueled by Keegan-Michael Key's performance as a improv actor aspiring to become a regular cast member of a "Saturday Night Live" type of show, what felt that could have been his actual real life climb into the industry, the movie serves as a look behind the scenes at the relationship between actors and the disbandment of a tight group of friends.The premise of the movie is good, but at the end it does not feel fulfilled, lacking a conclusion.
Clifton Johnson This movie was way more somber and insightful than I ever expected it to be. It also happened to be way more brilliant than I could have hoped for. And I'm not just saying that as a newly 40 year old former improv-er, either. This was a film that could have focused on just celebrity, but also touched on community and creation. More importantly, it touched on relationship without ever trying too hard. I loved every minute.
shreyasharma-5 I was really excited about this movie (since it's produced by Ira Glass and has Chris Gethard and Mike Birbiglia on the cast). It didn't let me down. It won't be everyone's cup of tea since it's slow and nothing much really happens. But to me, it felt real and emotional and the acting was top notch. It's more of a drama than a comedy so go in expecting that. It's beautifully executed and it seemed like the cast really had a good time filming it. It's not a blockbuster but it's a small little movie that will warm your heart. I actually teared up a little bit towards the end. Give it a watch and support the awesome comedians in it.
Jimmy P While this isn't quite what i had hoped for, i enjoyed it. Did the film provide improv and some humor? Yes. Was the story enjoyable? Slightly. I wasn't sure just what to expect as the film ad looked both comedic and dramatic. I think the cast worked, and there was even a SNL set time, a Ben Stiller drop in or two. I could've done without some of the not so subtle left-wing leanings, whether they have good points on some issues is subjugated to there whinning, that didn't ruin my overall viewing experience. The troupes personal and group meanderings weren't bad and i enjoyed the improv theater and the comedic exchanges. The characters crisis was understandable for most of the age groups in the film. I would have liked a different ending, something more concise, still it was a good film all in all. I would like to see more from the cast and the production, this was a well done Indie.
