Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

AutCuddly Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

Usamah Harvey The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

Donald Seymour This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Brigid O Sullivan (wisewebwoman) I would never have found this show only that my granddaughter recommended it, knowing I'd love it.I can't say enough about it. It takes a while to get to know the main character, Josh, and to make sense of the title. And then about 3 episodes in, it all clicks into place and the emotional investment takes over along with the laughs. And there are many.It's quite graphic at times, particularly when talking about sex but it all rings true. And grown-up compared with so much that comes out of the American and Canadian studios.I loved all the characters, flawed and all and so many of the scenes are still resonating, Josh off on a wilderness tour with his mum, fireworks on the beach, John the dog, etc.Wonderful, I binged. Of course. Highly recommend.

dermaniac It starts out kinda funny and charming, but then turns into sort of a bland mess of trivial issues being discussed ad nauseam, entitled behavior, and just a generally unlikable main character. You sympathize with his struggles at first, but over time you realize that he is a selfish narcissist that spends most of his time feeling sorry for himself. Not a single of the main characters has a job (and when at one point it is suggested to the main character that he should get one, he reacts flabbergasted), yet they never have to struggle with money. Most of the humor comes from the fact that everyone seems to be blandly fine with everything and shows very little to no emotions. I do commend it for playing with people's expectations every now and then, by setting up a scenario where you expect a certain reaction and then not giving it to us, but unfortunately almost every time it is that we are given no reaction... because like I said before, everyone is blandly fine with everything.It's just a bland mess of bland blandness, trying to get some jokes from the fact that everyone is so bland.

Vanessa senter Please Like Me is a very thoughtful dark comedy, and there isn't anything else quite like it. The writing is amazing. From a first glance this show might appear to be about gay life in Australia, and I've read several descriptions of the show that say something like that, but it's just a really funny show about life, generally, with a main character and many side characters who happen to be gay. It can be dark and depressing at times, and sometimes silly, but always very insightful without trying too hard, being pretentious, or going for shock value like so many shows seems to do for a laugh. We could use a lot more shows like this one.

tad-32 In one word, this show is fun.From the teaser, to the entertaining title credits where Josh dances a funny little jig while he cooks up the name of the episode (Spanish Eggs for example), to the final scene, this show is all about the humor to be found in our own quirks and our quirky relationships with others...Josh and his first boyfriend Geoffrey, his dad and his Thai girlfriend Mae, his mom and his aunt, Josh and his aunt, Josh and Claire, Ted and Nev, etc.The other thing that makes this a joy to watch is that the cast clearly enjoys what they're doing...it shines through their portrayals. There are also a few scenes where I swear they improvised, and improvised really well. Think 'Arrested Development meets generation Y'.
