The film's script and structure are predictable, so it rests on Camp's shoulders to raise the film above that.

Rated: 3/5

5000 Blankets is a very nice, well-intentioned movie that almost works, yet doesn't quite get there.

Rated: 2.5/4

How in the hell does this movie have the rating that it does? It makes zero sense to me. I can’t tell you about everybody’s life traumas but I do know that if you have experienced any kind of life trauma comparable to the one in this movie you don’t end up unscathed. You don’t end up Not showing the anger. Not showing the crying not showing the scars. You end up harmed. Maybe stronger but this movie doesn’t show all that. To me it’s a whole bunch of BS. I don’t give a crap how understandable it may be that the person who harmed you harmed you. It still hurts and it still leaves youvery troubled. This movie doesn’t show that at all. It’s such a Hollywood version it makes me wanna vomit.

Wow! I just finished watching the movie and loved it. A very powerful story that needed to be told. My first time seeing the talented Carson Minniear and I was impressed with his genuineness and the way he navigated through all of the different emotions his character had to display. Looking forward to seeing him in future projects.
