SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...
Kaydan Christian 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.
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
agam-84851 This series is one of the best series that I ever seen! A very strong brotherhood legacy and really without any type of violence in all the episode! That's great! This series is very emotional and is a big inspiration for me. I'm studying film scoring and i like write stories with word but also with music and this series is powerful for extend the imagination! I'm 20 😁
zee A show that straddles reality and fantasy, it appealed to this adult, too. The fantasy comes in two packages: the first is that there is magic in this small town, mostly in misbehaving artifacts. The second fantasy is that it is a multicultural, poverty-free small town where everyone treats each other decently. It is not the real world, but it is the world I think we all wish we could inhabit.While there is magic, there is plenty of science too, and science always trumps magic in the show. I was especially delighted that it is the girls who are whizzes at math and science. The boys are pleasant, funny, and have their own talents. The parents are loving, but also flawed, and with agendas of their own.Emotional topics are brought to the fore a couple times, particularly issues of grief. But comedy reigns....comedy and a good heart.Nice work from the kid actors, and I'm keeping an eye on David Bloom, who played one of the recurring secondary roles. I saw real depth and range in him.I'll miss the kids of Normal Street. When Amazon gets it right, as they often do, they excel.
Drive_Home After 14 episodes of the first season, I am now comfortable in saying: Gortimer is smartly written, well acted, and solidly produced. It transports one to a simpler, happier time, while still meaningful and relevant to the younger viewers. Each episode is a stand-alone tale that evokes the mysteries of childhood and--in what seems a lost art--manages to teach poignant and valuable lessons. Some episodes are more powerful and magical than others, but each one is satisfying in its own right. This show is one-part "Eerie, Indiana," one-part Gabriel Garcia Marquez, and one-part its own wondrous thing.
designroom101 We scour all the sources for child/youth films that are palatable,since the majority of the child actors are coaxed to act unnaturally obnoxious. We really hope that there are more of these in the series and the directors and producers can use their talent to produce some children's flicks that are actually fun to watch. Our 11 year old liked the story line. He appreciated the depth that the plot was developed. It had mystery, action, adventure and comedy. The kids seemed real and nobody overacted. I wish they had more episodes I wish that whoever made this film would make more like it, even if they are not in a series.
