TrueJoshNight Truly Dreadful Film

Titreenp SERIOUSLY. This is what the crap Hollywood still puts out?

Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Roxie The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

n-ketchum9 The Florida Project is the most gritty, real movie since the movie Kids. It's the most powerful movie since Pan's Labyrinth. If you are a movie fan, this is a must see.

ilikeimdb Impressive acting...and the only person who looked like they were acting was Willem Dafoe (who still acquitted himself well). I found the camera work mesmerizing and Brooklynn Prince's acting totally stunning (she's the heart of this movie, perhaps in counterpoint to her mother, convincingly played by Bria Vinaite). The director carefully crafted each scene but without the expected histrionics. It's a sweet and innocent story set in a cultural garbage dump. The ending seemed a bit too simplistic...I'd have like to see a bit more resolution even though you know exactly how things are going to turn out. If this movie doesn't make a strong case for fully funding Planned Parenthood then nothing ever ever will.

elgabote I really wanted to see Dafoe on this movie, I like a lot his acting, but I couldn't stand the boring (nonexistent) story, and the detestable characters. I tried to hold on and wait to see if there was a point to all this but I couldn't keep watching, half an hour and I didn't enjoying it a bit. Well, I liked the photography to certain point, but definitely not enough to watch the whole thing. Maybe I will be missing a good story development, but half an hour hating the movie is too much to continue watching. At least, a really bad 30 initial minutes. Cant judge the rest of the movie.EDIT: After writing this review, I've read more reviews to see what's the general feeling, and I got curious about the ending. Terribly filmed, not great at all in content. Glad I skipped the hour and quarter. I would lower the rating now, but I've already wasted enough time on this movie.

mstyles-624-399356 I eventually gave up on this movie.. The 'local color' was interesting for a bit. But I got the feeling there was no script, just felt like someone's home movie, wandering here and there. Yes, the kids were interesting a bit.. But the truth is, I didn't really care what happened to any of the characters.I'm seeing a lot of other good review here.. but I felt like it was a waste of time
