I Like Movies Reviews
The first ten minutes seemed like forever. It felt amateurish. I stayed with it and it just got better and better. The emotional meter ran from funny to sad to poignant. Isaiah Lehtinen played his part so well, I thought at first it was his autobiography. All the actors were superlative. It took me by surprise. I loved it.
Jumping from heartbreaking to heartwarming to heartbreaking to heartwarming, I Like Movies is a very good movie experience. Not a must-see, but worth watching.
Lawrence is by far the worst most unlikable character I’ve ever seen in any movie or show in my life. I wanted to see if others thought the same so naturally I looked it up. I was shocked to see this movie had a 100% which was extremely disturbing to me. I dislike Lawrence so much that I made a rotten tomatoes account just to write this because it 100% does not deserve a 100%.
Must see для кожного синефіла, хихи. В міру дотепне «санденсівське» інді, типовий coming of age з яскравим головним героєм, егоїстичним кінозадротом, який дуже хотів би, щоб світ обертався навколо нього.
I love this movie. Everything is relatable in it. The cast is great. The story is real yet heartfelt. And it’s Canadian. We can make great movies here. Well done! Highly recommend
Loved it, great film. Super entertaining
Lawrence (Isaiah Lehtinen), a 17-year-old social outcast struggling to come to terms with the suicide of his father four years earlier, dreams of leaving his suburban Ontario life to attend film school at NYU. Seemingly thwarted from every angle, he takes a job in a local video store in order to indulge his love of movies, at which point things become complicated. While it does manage to have an infectious energy to it and is relatable for anyone who even remotely experienced teen angst, I Like Movies falls a bit flat due to some overstated performances and some dialogue and situations that just don't feel real. Is it worth a watch? Sure, just as long as you don't set your sights too high.
Chandler Levack's hits the ground running with this love letter to video stores and creative hopefuls, written in a way that allows characters to breathe and feel beautifully flawed.
Loved it. Very unique interesting story with many layers and emotional moments; Simply put I like I Like Moives.
