Audience Reviews

L S One of the few movies I’d give a 5. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Heaven G I chose the film rating and mental health rating with 5 stars due to the accuracy this film portrays mental health disorders especially borderline personality disorder. It shows a true showcase of how people who struggle with patterns of instability of interpersonal relationships, self-image, and affects, and marked impulsivity throughout this film. As well as how it was portrayed in the 1960's. To top it off, Winona Ryder's and Angelina Jolie's acting was top notch. I would recommend this film to anyone who wants to get a better understanding of how mental illness can take control of people's lives, but also to get a better understanding of their struggles. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/10/24 Full Review helder f This movie approaches mental illness from a perspective from a patient. This is important to note. This is not a movie that a good psychoanalyst would write, as all characters are very shallowly represented in their psychological suffering . In fact, none of the characters is very likable, perhaps exactly because they’re all represented as flawed and self absorbed in their misery. Nonetheless, it is still able to reflect the problem of mental health and its treatment. The lack of her knowledge of what her own conflicts are is telling. One would hope that after 18 months, one would learn a bit more about herself. A person who is not very psychologically minded and holds to their symptoms and a possibly a therapeutic approach that doesn’t foster curiosity over oneself. She thus come up with some answers, which are as simplistic as her lack of answers. Another aspect that’s well captured is the relationships that are established among patients despite their illness. I think the casting is great. Almost typed. Wyona brings up the flavor of self indulgent sufferer. If they selected Hathaway for this role, I think the effect would have been similar. Goldberg, the grandiose nurse who thinks she knows it all. Jolie is a bit out of place and her role required a bit more of acting. Rated 4/5 Stars • Rated 4 out of 5 stars 05/06/24 Full Review s a amazing plot, amazing acting, amazing story, amazing movie Rated 4.5/5 Stars • Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 05/03/24 Full Review Evelina N Incredible film! It's so easy to get attached to a character, they are all so so interesting in their own ways! So diverse yet they all have something in common. The acting is phenomenal, there is happiness, freedom, love, connection and healing as well as sadness, jealousy, anger, frustration, confusion, manipulation and tragedy. Once you watch it, there will 100% be a part that sticks with you for a while. The story line is never ending, always something happening. 100/10.
