Bardlerx Strictly average movie
Flyerplesys Perfectly adorable
Tyreece Hulme One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
Cissy Évelyne It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
nbrem This is a terrific, intelligent, hilarious, energetic, female-led script, that will have you weeping and cheering simultaneously as the lead (Toni Colette) throws punches in the face of situations that girls and women put up with silently everyday.Its acerbically written script depicts suburban life in an average Australian coastal town, and the idiosyncratic personalities that make up the place.Poor Box office sales in the US are not a reflection of the films worth, but more a result of the film producers probably dedicating zero budget to promoting it outside Australia. More is the pity, as it's a rock solid film, if at times slightly difficult to understand the accent if you're not a native.Great film for a girls night in, and a film every Dad needs to see.
TheDancingPanda-692-744536 Outside of mad Max I'm not much of an Aussie cinema buff.Accents can be enough to squash interest for us colonials, but id like to ease concern. The Aussie tongue is thick enough to have you worried in the first ten minutes but not thick enough that you want to give up watching. It's a helpful bonus that most of the actors do an great job, and that always make acclimating to a different tongue much more painless. Certainly a watchable film from the wrong hemisphere. Also lily Sullivan shines. I was hypnotized by her. She's lovely, yet brilliantly normal, but intriguingly interesting. I spent half the film thinking, wow I can't wait for her to get to Hollywood. And I sincerely mean that. Shes got quite an enjoyable gleam about her.Enough of the schoolboy crush. The film itself was watchable.nothing bad about it. It had a few high points and some dull gray areas. Nothing wrong with it, just felt like 2 or 3 seriously funny parts would have taken it from 'worth watching' to a 'must watch' A good little change of pace for an American like myself. I thought it was a well deserved redbox rental.
shebashawn First off, I love all of the actors in this movie. Everyone did a fabulous job. This movie did a great job with how other's perceive 'mental' people. This film has a fabulous opening and fabulous ending. I'm sad that this movie wasn't in a movie theatre near me because I would have seen it at least twice.I appreciate this movie so much. So much that I would recommend it to anyone. Especially people who have obsessive compulsive disorder. They are some crazy people.The reason I love this movie so much is because the female character's who are considered 'unpopular, and mental' are so likable. I love a good movie with a fabulous ending. Sequel? I hope so
cinema kat Toni Collete is outstanding as Shaz, her performance is only one good reason to see this film; love, love, love it!! Worth seeing. Enjoyed the wit, humor and found myself identifying and empathizing with a few of the characters; having dealt with mental illness in my family, this film pinpoints and illustrates family dynamics with humor and style. Enjoyed the references to another favorite, "Sound of Music," which this film inspired me to watch again with my exchange student daughter...she and I had a great time sharing both films. Mental had me laughing till the credits rolled and was truly entertaining on many levels.
