Wonderful character development!

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

I saw this amazing film in Chicago and I ABSOLUTELY ADORED IT! I even dragged my mom to see it and, to be honest, I think she loved it even more than I did!!! There were laughs and tears coming from both my mom's and my face. Not only was the story touching, but the actors were phenomenal. The actors brought so much love, sadness, and joyful moments in their characters. I did not once think, "Damn, this actor needs better training!" On the way home we called my dad and told him how awesomely funny and powerful Putzel was! If you haven't had a chance to see this film, DO IT! You're life will be changed.....and I'm not joking....I'm a tough critic when it comes to films and acting performances. IT'S FANTASTIC!

I saw "Putzel" at a special screening in New York and I loved it. Not only was it hilarious, and entertaining but it moved me with its honesty and its incredible performances. I'm always a huge snob when it comes to music in films, but Putzel really nailed it. Each song compliments the action and gives it another dimension entirely; truly beautiful. From start to finish I was amazed with how effortless the entire film was - it flowed with ease, and didn't rely on any explosions or computer generated imagery - it just told the story and for that I commend it and have no doubt that'll it be loved by many. With the resemblance of a Woody Allen classic, it made me laugh out loud, it made me tear up...maybe..but overall it was a fun, quirky film that I'd recommend to everyone I know. Two thumbs up

A funny, moving, sweet movie. The story is modern and clever and it really fascinated me, from the very first moment. It was smart, quirky and charming at the same time. It was like a modern fable and the characters are an amazing portrait of the issues and problems of today's generation. The style, the taste and the atmosphere reminded me of Woody Allen. The incredible performances and the wise direction made me feel like I wanted to see it again and again. Jack Carpenter and Melanie Linskey did a really great job in making these characters real. Also, I loved the music. I'm telling all my friends to see this: it's definitely a must see!

Putzel is a film which demonstrates that with love and the right amount of courage, you can break free from your metaphorically familial and mental shackles to reveal the person you are truly meant to be.Through the keen directorial skill of Jason Chaet paired with Rick Moore's quirky, sensitive and a tiny bit raunchy writing, you find yourself deeply engrossed in a love story that is rarely seen nowadays. It is a tale with true heart and soul acted beautifully by the likes of Jack Carpenter, Melanie Lynskey, John Pankow and Susie Essman. And to top it all off, it is set in the historic and world renowned Upper West Side of Manhattan! What you find in the end is that there is a little bit of Putzel in all of us. We have our faults and our strengths and this film helps you decipher between the two. So get together with some friends and family, have a nosh and go see Putzel. You'll be glad you did!
