I call it like it is, I'm not going to call something great if it's good, and I won't say a performance is great just because it's an actor I like in other films. Now that's out of the way...
...Louis C. K. is a legitimate filmmaker-whether it's the writing or the directing, he understands the human condition on many levels.
I won't spoil the movie or describe the character arcs that happen throughout the movie, but I'll leave you with this review:
I laughed out loud on several occasions, and am wiping the tears as I write this review. It was a truly moving film on so many levels, it was so raw and gritty and played out like a reality tv show you couldn't take your eyes off of. The family was so authentic, so believable, it makes me wonder if they weren't actually related. Amazing casting from top to bottom, the lead performances were epic, and the father had such a deep character i absolutely didn't know what was going to come out of his mouth next.
Seriously a 10/10, I don't know if I've ever been so moved by such an underrated, unknown, low budget flick in a very very long time if ever. Bravo Louis it's definitely worth the money imo. It does have a melancholy tone, but I definitely felt the resolve and didn't feel shortchanged a single penny.
