MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

roller_man A breathtaking story remarkably recreated by the cast. The memorial day on 11th of September seen through the eyes of a kid. An unusual child who is trying to get to the mystery left by his father or maybe everything is in his imagination. One journey in the big city of New York which completely absorbs you and you wait for every next step of frantic interest.

Josh Extremely loud and incredibly close is such a gem, I am sad that it took me this long to see it. The cast is excellent, especially Thomas Horn, the main character. The story starts out in a bit of confusion, and you are not quite sure what to expect. Then, slowly over the span of the film, little connections begin to pop up as you begin to make sense of it all. I loved every moment of the film. There are ups, and downs, and everything in between, and even if you have never experienced exactly what Oskar experiences, you feel connected to his character, and you feel just as motivated to resolve his quest as he is. This film is well directed, and the style is amazing. I never felt like I knew what would happen next, and that made me happy. It is a great family film, and there is a very nice message attached to it.

adonis98-743-186503 A nine-year-old amateur inventor, Francophile, and pacifist searches New York City for the lock that matches a mysterious key left behind by his father, who died in the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. This is not a movie about everyone and maybe i can understand why people hated it they expected something more instead of a life changing adventure where a kid goes on a search for a key but Thomas Horn alongside Max Von Sydow stole the show for me and although i wish Tom Hanks was more in the film he was still a big part of the plot and although it might turn boring or childish you get it why i mean my god we're talking about 9/11 and a kid that lost his dad what did you expected? Be open minded and you will not be disappointed at all trust me.

mursel-samedov Tonight i just finished novel finally i allowed myself to watch movie 3 years after discovery of this masterpiece. I fall in love with the novel but What the hell was that movie? I love Tom Hanks for sure and i loved how he played his character but dude this screenplay is twisted up! Show up time of grandma, many things completely changed, still they create a 2 hours movie and they cut 80% of novel and changed 15% of remaining 20%. What the hell was that? If you can't adapt a screenplay then don't do it. I literally turned off my headphones during some scenes because it was Extremely Annoying and Incredibly Different from actual story. Stolen 2 hours and 3 years waiting was not worth it.
