Ploydsge just watch it!
PlatinumRead Just so...so bad
Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Nick Electrick Children was a very entertaining movie with a great cast. This story line was very creative. The movie was very symbolic. Although at some points within the movie, it was a bit hard to follow. My favorite part of the movie was when the mother had a connection with Rachel as she gave her the keys to the car late at night.
avik-basu1889 'Electrick Children' is a small American Indie film that I decided to watch because the synopsis of the film seemed interesting. The film is about a teenage girl named Rachel living in a Mormon Community who gets pregnant and his brother Mr. Will is accused of being the father, which Rachel denies as she believes the baby inside her is the son of God.Although the film is a small budget, somewhat obscure indie film, but its storyline and the themes that are at work are very ambitious. Writer/Director Rebecca Thomas's script certainly has various layers running through it. But her visual style of storytelling is also pretty impressive. The cinematography deserves to be ired as the film looks great. Lights and bright colours are an important part of the film and its themes and they shoot out of the screen due to the vibrant nature of the cinematography. Thomas intentionally keeps the film relatively ambiguous throughout. It is open to diverse interpretations, but the main themes in the film that I think to be at work are the themes of awakening (both psychological and sexual) and embracing others(who might seemingly be different to you) and your own self and live the kind of life that you want to live instead of being forced to live the life of someone else's choice. The ambiguous nature of the film keeps it from being too preachy as most of what is being conveyed is through visual hints and metaphors that may imply something or the other. It does get a bit predictable at times, but for the most parts the script is solid.Julia Garner's performance as Rachel is one of the main reasons why 'Electrick Children' works. She is brilliant as the naive, innocent, yet infinitely determined girl who is searching for something or someone in a spirited quest of biblical nature. Rory Culkin as Clyde also is impressive in a number of scenes."Electrick Children' isn't groundbreaking cinema, but it certainly is ambitious with its content and is sure to make you think about it after its conclusion.
meganddavies Stumbled across this lovely film on Netflix last night, and after reading the summary was curious as to how it would turn out, and it was a lot better than I thought !We follow the 15 year old Rachel who believes that she has had an immaculate conception and got pregnant by listening to a tape that she found (we are left to assume how she actually got pregnant) Julia Garner plays a brilliant part and she played the character so well you can almost believe she got pregnant through listening to the songWe see Rachel and her brother Mr Will go from their rural Mormon village to the gritty streets of Las Vegas were they meet some rockers who take them in as fellow travellers and what we see is a beautiful coming of age story as Rachel and Mr Will adapt and experience new things. Another brilliant performance by Rory Culkin as the stoner/skateboarder who falls in love with Rachel and helps her along her way.Overall 7/10 an enjoyable watch, with incredible cinematography and of course, an excellent soundtrack !
Heather May I am a huge fan of indie films. When I came across this the other night I added it to my netflix list to watch. I started watching it last night and couldn't wait to finish it today. This movie's story line is genius. I would have to say that the way the story develops is brilliant. I love the fact that my brain was stimulated the whole time. There were so many levels to this movie, which made it so very intriguing to watch.Now can I just say this... Rory Culkin is sexy in this film. I don't know quite what it is, but I get these weird attractions sometimes. I don't want to get into detail about the movie, but I suggest you watch it. I was hooked. After the movie was over, I was like that was a great movie.<3 Heather May
