Justin Easton There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
ElliBAM This film shows perfectly, what it is like to survive from one point of view. There are billions of stories, but this shows one of a billion, It connects with an audience more mature than their years through emotional experience. It is poetic and tremendously acted. I can't find many more words to express how incredible this film is, and how important. From structure to soundtrack, casting to shot structure. I could not recommend this more.
percyloganfan0916 The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a well-executed adaptation of the 1999 novel of the same name with great performance from Lerman, Watson and Miller. With a crisp script and precise direction from Chbosky who also penned the novel, the film achieves a great storytelling standpoint supported with great acting and great movie craftsmanship. Overall, the movie is a great and excellent take of the novel it is based on.
claudiacscb Several things about this movie made me cringe: the recycled 'unique girl that likes cool unpopular music', classic novels, a really cute kid who is bullied for no good reason, or Emma Watson's poor American accent. But truth be told, the movie got better as it went on. I really loved the characters though, especially Charlie. A really lovable movie that gave me hope, that's really all I can say. I hate life a little less because of this movie.
Daniel Kirke I watched this from finding a trailer of it online and i did hear of it years ago but wasn't sure. A lot has happen since then and when i watched it i was mesmerised through the whole film. Near the end i was crying as i could related so much with Charlie due to the amount of struggles i have had with my feeling and the horrible incident that happened to me when i was twelve.I was crying near the end, i was crying as i knew he was feeling just the same how i was when i was going through a bad time. I still am and this film help release some of those emotions.
