Simply A Masterpiece
Better Late Then Never
The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Such a good and entertaining drama, is Hick, but of course what makes it entertaining is great little actress, Chloe Moretz, who takes on a braver, role, before that of something, like The Equalizer. She's sick of her white trash existence. At it's start, again, we see a kind of stereotypical type to Moretz's role, as a friendless schoolkid who's just turned lucky thirteen, where her Mum (Lewis) splits, seeing a much better offer with a much older ordinary looking guy, as she's left with good for nothing father, so she splits, meeting a few different characters, on her travels, and with her sexual prowness, raises a few eye lids. Hick is a movie adventure as to see what path, Moretz's life will take. She gets in a little deep, with a well meaning, but older unhinged cowboy, (Redmayne) excellent like Moretz, who wants her sexually, and Moretz will get a few meters running here. A fattened up Baldwin, a lodge owner, plays a real ambiguous and dark character, really hard to make sense of, who feels no remorse, in killing his own chickens, for profit. A cute little time passing drama, with great/strong performances, Hick is. It has a couple of moments that shock, but aren't we getting tired of wannabe tough asses, giving that Dirty Harry 44 magnum speech.
Hick, a low budget 2001 indie film where the young female protagonist, Chloë Grace Moretzone, gives a performance worthy of a dozen actors. Blake Lively supports this small heroine, breaking out of her standard type-casted role, to a feisty, raunchy, southern belle character with a deep psychological background that inches to surface. Would have liked to have seen a better established climax, but the ending stayed true to the story, which could very well be more non-fiction than fiction. All in all, worth watching for insight to alternate perspectives of society's standard of normalcy..
having not read the book before watching the movie I had no idea what to expect, however I was not let downboth Eddie and Chloe I will admit held the whole performance and those complaining about some scenes ( for those who have seen it understand) she was 14 when the movie came out prob less when filming it I mean its get an older actor or get the age appropriate actress!! Having read the book as soon as i watched the movie I can see why people were let down but to me they done the best they could and it couldn't turned out better!!the only thing that got to me was that they left out the meeting of the boy in the motel and the game they played! it would have made the seen just after make more sense
I Am in love with this movie. I watched it not expecting o enjoy it what so ever. the story was good, though a bit creepy near the end. I loved Hick so much that I've seen it enough times to quote the whole movie. This is a movie you rather really hate or really like so if you haven't seen it yet I would strongly advise you to. The only questionable part is the rape scene in the end. Chloe Moretz pulls off another amazing role like always. She and Eddie change the mood from Dramatic to Funny to sad. I hope that they're are people that enjoy this movie as much as me. This will be one to show people 20 years from now when it becomes a classic. Hope you guys enjoy the film.
