oh shit how did I start tearing up at your review of an excellent movie that made you emotional? in all seriousness I’m so sorry for your loss. and yes, we are a community. this is absolutely true, it’s so nice to know you’re not alone
So happy that movies like this are still being made. A familiar drama story that turns into one of, if not my favorite movie of the year so far. I just feel so protected by this movie because of the loveable sisters all around. Eventhough, i don't have a sister, i do relate to some of the conflicts that they faced when they were taking of their dying father. All three actresses are terrific but Natasha Lyonne was unexpectedly my favorite part of the whole movie. I don't kno their Oscar chances but i do hope that The Academy could take a look at this movie and considers for it's acting and screenplay for a nomination. The ending was a truly surprise too, the actor who played the dad only appeared at the end for like 5 minutes but god damn, he sold that role, it made me teared up throughout his whole speech about his three daughter. This was Elizabeth Olsen's first non MCU movie since 2018 and she deserves some awards for her work in this masterpiece I can see why Netflix spent $7 million to buy the rights of this movie from last year's TIFF and man, it was so worth it
Films like this that display such a raw human experience is what makes us feel connected and seen. I just watched this movie yesterday and cried through almost the whole thing. There's nothing more isolating than navigating the loss of a loved one. There's a real sense of comfort in knowing you're not the only one who has faced grief and death. Superb script, use of color theory and camera angles. Pure, beautiful acting. Like you said, this was nothing short of an excellent movie. I'm sorry for your loss and thank you for sharing your experience.
I’m so sorry about your mom. It humanised your review and that takes courage because you didn’t have to share. I watched it on Friday and man, I let the tears come. It was beautifully scripted, directed and performed. Loved it💚
So yesterday was the 2 year anniversary of my mom’s death. I was 1 min into the review and said absolutely not. But thank you for posting this Tait. I miss her so much. It does feel good to know that no matter how sad I feel I am not alone in this unfortunate feeling.
First one here! You are awesome! Missed your reviews! Thank you for sharing your story! It’s too early to be crying on a Friday now Chris! Movie that made me feel a way “the boy in the striped pajamas” and a mini series that killed me “from scratch” Your voice is soothing on my drive to work! Happy Friday!
hey Chris, thanks for reviewing this. I'm sorry for your loss of your mom. Thanks for sharing your personal life. Based on your review, I watched this last night. Very good movie, unexpected and imaginative ending. It will stay with me for a long time
I'm sorry for your loss 🙏🏾 Thank you for your candor and for sharing. It is good to know you aren't the only one. I feels like it when you are going through it. I want to see this movie, but I'm afraid to at the same time. I'm one of three sisters (the oldest) and we lost our mom to cancer in 1995. It was devastating and life-changing for us. One of those movies that broke me to the point that I can never watch it again is Terms of Endearment. I sobbed all through the end credits of that one.
I was going to watch this movie eventually but I tried to hurry up and watch it because I saw you reviewed it. I’m so happy I did even though the flood gates were flowing for me too. I haven’t experienced a parent dying yet but this movie definitely hits home when remembering my experiences with other family members deaths. I almost want to do a video of my own to discuss the amazingness (is that a word?!) of this movie. So well done and definitely Oscar worthy. Thank you so much for your review and your vulnerability. My sincerest condolences for the loss of your mom. I’m sure she is so proud of you 🥰
I just finished watching the movie only because I saw you did a review about it. I had added it to my Netflix list , but it was way down the line because by the title, I figured it would be a very serious sentimental movie. I enjoyed it and would recommend it. The movie that makes me cry is Forrest Gump every time. When Jenny dies and when Forrest puts his son on the school bus at the end 😢.
It takes awhile to really move through all of the nuances of grief that I can totally relate to how it pulls you back in to those raw moments of having gone through it. Even years later it can still feel fresh. Thanks for sharing about your mom. I cried too
First of all, I'm sorry for your loss. Second of all, how dare you put that scene at the end of your review and let me cry my eyes out? Today I did the really stupid thing of looking through my Google memories and saw a pic of my dad. I rarely do that. Went to his grave today, too. And that scene just... Uf. But it did answer the question if I'm ready to watch this or not. Hell, no. Not anytime soon anyway... Same with This Is Us. That one just hits too close to home.
Wow, what a beautiful video. Thank you, Tait! Thanks for sharing, and for your sensitive review. I wouldn't be able to watch this because of what I went through when my Mom and fiancé died one week apart four years ago. I'm still not "okay" yet. I never watched X-Men First Class. But the end of Infinity War tore me up!! It's even worse now watching it when *Black Panther* turns to dust and... well, you know. 😞😩😭 As for a movie that made me break down and cry, I watched one last year and then again a few months ago on Netflix called *"Long Story Short."* I won't even talk about it. Just PLEASE watch it!!! I think this movie should be required before a couple can get married or even in a relationship. Ronny Chieng (from The Daily Show) is in it. There are some really cute and funny moments, but then BAM!!!! The message is strong and done in a short amount of time. 🥺
Such a tough situation you went through. And here you still fighting. Love it. I will definitely watch this movie tho - I don’t think I had heard of it before.
Great to see a video from you! It had been awhile since we heard from you and I don’t know about anyone else, but I was ready to send out that Scooby Doo van to make sure you were ok 😀
Great Review! I didn't even read the description of the movie, I just wanted a movie to watch and this one was recommended. I can't even relate to this situation with personal experience but the movie made me cry some really real tears. It was so realistic and grounded. And I usually don't cry at movies either although Hatchiko makes me cry every single time I watch it. I've seen it probably about 10 times and it never fails to make me cry like a baby😂
Tait thank you so much for sharing this recommendation. Seeing that it's about a family's challenges as their father is in hospice really resonates with me: My family went through this situation with my grandad last year. My dad, my grandma and I were the ones primarily watching him bc we all lived together. Then my aunt and uncles (my dad's siblings) started coming up once he went to the hospital. Our family didn't fight, but it was still a lot to process. He was my second dad, and I think about him all the time (I made a tribute film for him that we played at his funeral and I would watch it everyday for weeks whenever I missed him). Movies like this can deeply resonate. My deepest condolences for your beautiful mother, I'm sending you and your sister so much love!!! 💖💖💖💖💖💖 I watch all your reviews and love them, so thank you so much for sharing this one.
Thank you for sharing this and it’s super nice to read that you had so much family all coming together. That’s what it’s all about. Happy to have you watching my videos 🥹
I pressed play and stop a few times. I still didnt finish it. It is so well done... so real. And that cold winter setting in NY. Maaan. If u been slapped by winters in NY then u know u cant hang outside long. Bubble jacket or not. I felt the stuck in the apt. Its suffocating. Lol Olsen is a libra for sure. Funny i gave her role to my cousin who is an older sister to me and shes a libra. What signs are the other 2? PS: sorry for ur loss. 🙏🏽😔
Thank you for opening up about your experience. I cry a lot in films especially if they hit close to home. Both Aftersun and Leave no trace from 2018 had me wrecked. Also, Past Lives which I’m pretty sure wrecked everyone. Looking forward to watching this. Love Natasha Lyonne!
Man, you suggested this and I went and watched it, and man… I want to suggest it to my mom-she just lost both her parents pretty recently-but I feel like it might be TOO hard because her and her siblings have just continued to drift and drift since. What do y’all think? Also, so much love to you, your sister, and your mum ❤️ so sweet of you to dedicate this to her.
I always count on you for some laughs, but your review was beautiful. I loss my youngest child 4 years ago, so I was already tearing up at just your review. Even though the movie sounds wonderful I won't be watching it right now. Thank you for sharing your story.
I can relate to this situation. I want to watch this film but feel like it might be a bit too raw for me to watch it right now, but i definitely will. Love to all the siblings out there 💕
Wow, thank you for the review and heads up. My mom passed away from cancer when I was a teenager. My brother and I had to deal with the majority of her care. I want to see this film but I’m going to have to make sure I am prepared! 🤧
Thanks for the video. Sounds boring as hell and depressing, I deal with enough realism in real life. I like my movies to be a little impossible so I’ll be skipping
i had nothing much to relate to in the movie but i still cried like a baby (dad and two half-brothers who live in another country from me so i have no relationship with them at all)
@@TaitsTake Young Tod: Copper, you're my very best friend. Young Copper: And you're mine too, Tod. Young Tod: And we'll always be friends forever, won't we? Young Copper: Yeah. Forever. Big Mama: I'm sorry, Tod. Honey, Copper's gonna come back a trained huntin' dog. A real killer. Tod: Oh, no. Not my friend Copper. He won't never change. Big Mama: I hope you're right, Tod. Tod: And we'll keep on being friends forever. Uh, won't we, Big Mama? Big Mama: Darlin', forever is a long, long time. And time has a way of changin' things.
So sorry to hear about your experience. Being the libra that I am I can tell you right now....Nope, no way will I make it through this. My siblings and I went through this with my Mom a few years ago and JUST YESTERDAY learned our Pop has stage 4 cancer. I need to balance my life with feel good entertainment (hello Great British Bake Off) Thank you for the fair warning! The movie that drove me to tears was Changeling. I cried for days. Anyway, anyone have happy movie recommendations?
Thanks for the review Chris! Sorry about your mom! Timing is everything as my Mom was in hospice and actually just passed away yesterday. It’s a rough go for sure. This movie looks good but I might skip… a bit too soon for my liking. ❤️🩹
I don’t think I could handle this one, I tend to avoid “heavy” content… but it can also be cathartic to put yourself in a place to have to face it, part of the human experience :( 🫂

Agree with all of this. Thank you!
Tait! This was such a beautiful review. I appreciate how open you were. Vulnerable with some humir sprinkled in.❤❤❤
Very much appreciated. “Life is a tragedy when seen in closeup, but a comedy in long-shot,”

Hello, friend 🥹 thank you for watching and leaving this nice note 💜
The real OGs know Natasha Leone from But I'm a Cheerleader! My gay awakening
💯
For sure!!
So yesterday was the 2 year anniversary of my mom’s death. I was 1 min into the review and said absolutely not. But thank you for posting this Tait. I miss her so much. It does feel good to know that no matter how sad I feel I am not alone in this unfortunate feeling.
I feel you 1,000%
The movie that broke me in the theater, was A Star Is Born. I had never cried so hard in public
Ahh yes. Good one there.
You are sooooo good at this!! Great review. Will watch.
Hey! Thanks for saying that!
First one here! You are awesome! Missed your reviews!
Thank you for sharing your story! It’s too early to be crying on a Friday now Chris!

Thank YOU for sharing this. A wise man once said, “there’s no such thing as a long time ago” so I’m sure you still feel what I feel.
The porsuit of happiness when he finally got the job. That's a scene that really makes me cry of joy.
What about the sleeping in the train bathroom too tho 😫
I was going to watch this movie eventually but I tried to hurry up and watch it because I saw you reviewed it. I’m so happy I did even though the flood gates were flowing for me too.

Sorry you lost your mom to cancer, I did too. ❤ And thanks for the warning, I will probably need á whole box of tissues.

So so good.

Lol Olsen is a libra for sure. Funny i gave her role to my cousin who is an older sister to me and shes a libra. What signs are the other 2?
PS: sorry for ur loss. 🙏🏽😔
She just seems like a Libra. So if I had to guess the other two Carrie Coon as Virgo/Leo. Natasha Lyonne as Gemini (😍)
