Glucedee It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

Deanna 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.

btm1 Very enjoyable and engrossing small film with a well thought out plot and interesting characters. Walter (Andrew J. West) is a young adult who lives an overly-obsessive ordered life. He also believes his father is God and his mission in life is to pass judgment on everyone he meets as to whether that person will go to heaven or hell in the afterlife. He lives at home with a widowed mother (Virginia Madsen) who has her own peculiar behavior pattern. She is unaware of Walter's beliefs but is distressed that Walter is not healthier. Walter's life is abruptly disrupted by the sudden appearance of a ghost (Justin Kirk, who played Andy Botwin in the TV series "Weeds") who demands Walter send him to either heaven or hell already because he's been on earth as a ghost for 10 years now. Without giving the story away, I can say I felt the author very nicely tied everything together in the end.Walter H. Macy plays a very unusual psychologist, whose personality is pretty similar to what Macy portrays on the US version of "Shameless."Neve Campbell has a small but critical role as a nurse.Jim Gaffigan does an excellent job as the theater manager who doesn't take his own job too seriously but is a good boss.I watched the film on TV. Perhaps it works better in an intimate setting than in a theater, but I really found it engrossing, enjoyable and worthwhile.

asekula Full disclosure: I love this movie because it is, among other things, a love letter to Indianapolis. There's Main Street in Speedway, Long's Bakery, and most touching for me, Holy Trinity Church (where my grandparents, parents and I worshipped and which the Archdiocese closed last year). So yes, some of the shots were repetitive, but they made Indianapolis look so beautiful. There's also William H. Macy as a psychiatrist with a very unorthodox technique. And when I say thought-provoking, I mean that you might spend some time wondering whether Walter really is assigning people to their places in the afterlife, or you might dismiss it as a silly premise. But don't many of us, in everyday life, make snap judgments about who is going to heaven and who is going to hell in the firm belief that our judgments are based in objective truth? Isn't there some Walter in many of us? And why do we do that?

Liam Blackburn What is it.... A comedy?.... Or a drama....pick one. Instead of being one or the other, this ends up being a swing-and-miss by trying to be both. The beginning started out really wishy-washy, but had some funny lines. Even though it began with a funeral scene, you thought that maybe it would grow into an entertaining light hearted funny movie. From death comes rebirth and new life. This did not happen. It started to become more and more dramatic, whilst repeatedly trying to infuse more ill-timed humour here and there. The plot was so obvious about halfway through. The ghost was obviously connected to his own life somehow. Then, if it wasn't enough, the Doctor literally tells us, what the entire problem of the protagonist was---that he didn't grieve. Sometimes it's best to let the audience figure that stuff out by themselves. The movie wasn't serious enough to be a drama, nor was it funny enough to be a comedy. This leaves it in perpetual limbo, much like the existence of the ghost character.

tootsiepop6 I had the thrilling opportunity to see the film "Walter" on January 2 at Palm Springs Film Festival. The movie was amazing. The cast consists of huge name actors: William H Macy, Virginia Madsen, Andrew J West, Neve Campbell, Brian White, Milo Ventimiglia, Jim Gaffigan, Peter Facinelli, etc! The entire cast brings so much to the movie. There is depth and substance to each role. I laughed throughout the movie at its witty lines. I cried when the main character starts going through the grieving process. If you're like me and crave movies that make you feel, then this movie is for you! There has never been a movie like this one. It's truly one of a kind. You must see it!
