It’s a 2012 indie movie that I was
just dying to see. I know that I was behind the bandwagon but at least I’ve
seen it now! A lot of people had good reviews about it which just made me so psyched
to see it.
It’s about a guy who stopped
speaking since he was 10. He wasn’t deaf or mute he just doesn’t feel like
speaking. The movie was about family, friends and love.
I love how he captures everything
like he vlogs his life. I also love his relationship with Enid. I love how
they’re both so into music which made it like their bridge towards each other.
I love how he imagined his twin brother, he died when they were 10 and just the
way he imagined his brother at their age was cool in a way, although it was
quite questionable because in his flashbacks they were both wearing the same
clothes and seeing his imaginary twin brother with a style personality was odd
but I guess that’s how he imagined him.
I also think that some of the
characters should’ve been portrayed better, like his little sister; she doesn’t
look like to be still in that age to be excited about dolls. The actress for
Enid was so good she had such a great voice and she portrayed the cool outgoing
girl perfectly.
The part where his twin dies was
kind of predictable, as soon as I saw the quick flashback I was like “I bet
he’s going to fall off a cliff or something”. The irritating part was when Dawn
couldn’t figure out which son is which. I mean they weren’t infants to be super
identical they were 10 years old like what kind of mother doesn’t know how to
differentiate her kids.
What also intrigues me was, he
stopped talking to other people when he was 10 and when he finally talked he
was 20 so his family members must’ve been baffled because his voice got
pubertized I mean he went through the changes of puberty without talking so the
time they heard him speak his voice was deep. That was just something that I
realized.
Nevertheless, I liked the movie.
It’s a great teen/young adult movie. The music from the movie is really great
it gives such good vibes. Plus, Dominic Roco was insanely cute how he was so
hipster and how he was all inlove while talking to his imaginary twin brother.
It’s still a must see.
