Would have been a way cooler movie if the giants ended up being real and it wasnt a boring old twist of mental illness
Yes this movie was confusing, but isn't it what we are looking for when watching a movie ? To feel confused and then have our answers at the end ? I enjoyed it and the heartfelt sensation coming with it. I will recommend it.
As many of you already have written, everyone is expecting another fantasy movie... But you get a great Story about courage, friendship, fantasy and strength instead! Newcomer Madison Wolfe did a great job! At the end i only was.... WOW! Another point are the important take-home messages mentioned in this movie. "We are all too focused on whats on TV or who has the best sneekers". Just go out i live your Life, unless what has happened! Loved this movie!
This movie feels like a merge of "Where the wild things are" and "My girl". The movie is about a young teen who battles a real life issue of a dying parent, an overwhelmed older sister trying to keep things together and a gamer brother . The teen displays alarming mental illness flags and is only aided by a school counselor. The movie had good base BUT it goes very wrong as the move doesn't allow for the viewer to become emotionally connected with the main character. Barbara is arrogant, spiteful, aggressive and mean spirited. Among those things there is also not enough back story early on to really FEEL the characters plight. The back story slowly unravels along the way in small chunks but doesn't do the main character justice as you can't really SEE her true self amid her coping mechanisms. The ending of the movie really wraps up nicely. If the producers had used some of that storytelling in the beginning the movie would have been a real success.
