I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Fantastic!
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful
This movie shows us the present Lee and the past Lee. Lee lost his children and he's been left in a dark alone. Joe had helped him get well and Lee has been getting over the distress. And one day,Joe died and his will says that Lee is going to be Patrick's guardian. Lee refuses it first but he decides to be his guardian after all. And then the new life starts and the movie starts showing us Lee's past. Lee's felt a great responsible to his children's loss and he's not sure if he can take care of Patrick. We can see Lee's distress of the past some times on the movie. On the other hand,Patrick doesn't look so sad at Joe's loss. But we see Patrick get sick when he sees the frozen chicken and I think that expresses that Patrick's had the sad feelings and he's been patient. Those things happen between Lee and Patrick and they develop together. But at the last, Lee decides not to take care of Patrick as his parent. The complicated situation is built between them but their relationship is never broken. At the last scene,they ride on the boat and go fishing as they did when Patrick was little. This movie is about the development of each people,Lee,Patrick,Lee's ex-wife Randi and so on. This movie is about their lives' journeys.
If your day was going well and you had a smile on your face just watch this film and that will completely change. Not a single shred of sunshine or cheer in this pile of garbage.
Watch something else or go outside for a walk. This film is not worth your time.
I saw this movie everywhere and when I finally decided to see it was completely the worst. The few filma I have seen starring Casaey Affleck are often boring and, I feel, try really hard to keep it as "human" or "normal" as possible which is nothing but boring. There was not really a character development: Lee seems the same through ALL the movie (present, flashbacks is the same), the nephew seems too normal aftee the death of his father and there's only one moment where it seems he feels it but after a plain acting it's just feels weird and senseless to the viewer. I never felt a connection to anything, I doubt I will ever. I can't see how this movie may help or connect or teach or anything beyond anger anyone at all. A waste of time, simply the worst.
