    Film style started interesting but quickly became annoying

    There is a reason why fake documentary-style amateur footage isn't strung together to make movies. After 5-10 minutes of it, most people are sick of the shaky cam, poor framing, and disjointed feel as we jump from scene to scene. There is a visual beauty element to movies that is sorely lacking here thanks to all of the faux-amateur footage.

    As for the sad coming of age story, it could have been okay if presented in a more conventional manner. The heavy subject matter becomes somewhat maudlin and hard to take seriously thanks to the filming gimmick.

    Beautifully done, heartfelt and honest.

    Charlie gillespie and reign Edward's were fantastic. I was swept away by their onscreen friendship. I could relate to the struggles gillespie was amazing he made me cry and feel his emotions.

    So necessary and beautifully raw.

    This is not your typical "teenager goes through depression" kind of movie. This is an unique movie that takes a turn on how you approach mental health from the point of view of those who are struggling with it. The fact that it is on "home videos" format just adds to it, because we get to peek inside the characters' most intimate thoughts and you begin to understand and relate a lot to what they go through. It's an honest mental health journey, it's raw and it has so much depth to the dialogues and monologues. Reign Edwards and Charlie Gillespie delivered brilliant performances, they really gave the life it needed to the friendship, the love and the meaning of having someone to just be there for you mo matter what. Amazing job from the cast and crew, it's worth every minute.

    All around great movie!

    Loved this film! Reign Edwards is amazing as Mackenzie! Wonderfully written story about 2 of the most prevalent issues so many young people face today.

    Highly recommend!
