watched this movie 5 minutes ago and nothing but good things can i say about Simmons acting, the writing, and direction of the film. This film honestly made me a fan of teller and i don't think anybody else could have played the role better because he really captures that "i can do it" attitude that keeps you locked into the film. The film really does have this build to it that is almost too brilliant and the personalities show within the actors so very well that it inspires you to really examine yourself and your goals and think "what drives me?" and "what is my purpose?". To be honest i chose this film out of random and didn't expect much but now it is at the top of my 2015 movies list. Every once in a while you find a movie that is truly great.

So the funny thing about me liking this show is that i'm a guy 0_0... it is just full of everyday issues that the two face and its actually very funny and i have to wonder if some of the situations are based on real life events... or all of them. i don't think I've ever seen two people have this close of a bond (it shows so very deeply and i like that). Now the acting..... isn't bad either! i'm serious when i say that its well written and the two just portray these awkward, emotional, and embarrassing moments very well. I had seen their youtube stuff which led me to wonder if they could write a TV show just as funny as their songs and believe it or not... yes, very much so. I gave it 9 stars because its not everyday you catch a glimpse of something different. I hope they keep moving forward.

A must see film in my opinion

Ill keep this short. although this film bombed it really doesn't get the credit it deserves. first off the directing is amazing. It thoroughly goes into detail of the struggles of being a pilot in war while telling multiple stories (the film focuses on many people). James Franco delivers an unforgettable performance and i have to say that this film is truly one of the greats. I cant tell you how factual it is but i can say that it kept me interested and entertained. I actually first saw this film in class and most films they show at school are garbage (we all know this) but this film was good enough for me to watch it a second time and then write this review:) i hope you get the chance to watch it at some point.

Seems like another dumb highschool film although not entirely terrible.

So despite the hate Cameron Dallas receives, he actually didn't do as bad of a job as i expected. Marcus johns takes the plate for worst performer in my opinion because although hes funny and goofy the writing is just awful for his character (same for felix's Dad) and i actually hated most of the scenes he was in for that very reason. The film itself has some pretty bad writing and some extremely unrealistic situations but if you like dumb movies that are meant for people that don't really care about performances but dumb jokes instead then this is the film for you. Its just another dumb movie about highschool thats so unrealistic that its hard to watch. Although the film has a lot of little things wrong with it i actually did enjoy some of it and wouldn't totally write it off.
