Review of Let Go

Let Go (2011)
1/10
Quirky fo' quirks sake
29 August 2012
Let Go (2010) shoots for delightful. Unfortunately, it only actually hits somewhere around "let's light all copies on fire and do away with 'em". Quirky for the sake of being quirks, one only needs to be clued in by the movie's poster, one that looks all too much like the cover of a circa 2007 Urban Outfitters catalog.

In short, this thing is a wholly unsatisfying mess. If you crossed 'Little Miss Sunshine' with 'Juno' and rolled the combined goo in a chopped-up copy of 'Garden State', then forcefed the resulting paste to Kristen Schaal while Michael Cera and Jesse Eisenberg were chained up nearby, eyelids pinned back and forced to watch, you might have an interesting piece of cinematic art (or, if you ended up *really* lucky, marketable snuff film) that a future unmade sequel to 'Let's Go' would one day strive to be.
