Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Nicole I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

zif ofoz .............. but I enjoyed it!The setting is spooky enough to make you have no end of thoughts as to which direction this flick will take. A back woods family of men with each having an unusual and possibly disturbed personality.The comedy is very thin here and the acting is borderline amateurish but director Tully keeps it tame and in the end we have an odd movie with lots of questions for the viewer.To analyze this movie would go in too many directions but i believe the message is we are what we are and no amount of preaching will change it!

moviemaster So, it wasn't terrible. I watched the whole thing. I enjoyed the athletic prowess of Cornelius and felt that was a story which could have been developed with interest. But wasn't. In fact, although very slow moving, there was more story to tell. Did they run out of film? (HAHA, since no one uses film.) The introduction of the evangelical preacher at the last moment to tie up the plot- and the miscreant was too facile for my taste. There was a kernel of thought in this movie, but it was never allowed to germinate properly. It had just sprouted when they stopped watering it.Good directors/ screenwriters make movies for their audience. Great directors/screenwriters make movies for their audience and to express their inner feelings about the human condition. Mediocre directors/screenwriters make movies for themselves and don't care if their message is inscrutable.

frivolousfate Brother returns home(Kid A). He was a former football star, destined for greatness. His father is a little feminine. Kid B is a little manly, and artistic and idk...normal? And Kid C is idk..retarded?-slow? -a nice down to earth person. Kid B has Kid A on a pedestal. He lives vicariously through Kid A's accomplishments it seems. Had such high hopes for him, but Kid A must live his own life, for he has his own demons.Kid A, the long lost son, after returning home-...hustles locals at different sports-basketball-tennis-he is obviously very lost- using money to buy alcohol, which he chugs-another scene he sniffs gas. He is a bearded mess. Looks the part of a lost soul-lost in himself. The end-Religion. Must condemn the plumber. Father in a dress. The condemned plumber chopping a tree. The sons-idk-just there-sure they gain something ...and the final ending...father in his dress shirt-a song being sung-sons sitting around. What was gained by this all? I do not know! Did the lost son regain some sort of peace? I don't know. I know the father did not gain himself. The other boys were mere filler.But it was fun to watch.Not great. Not terrible.Worthwhile though. I need another viewing I think, maybe then I'll gain another perspective.What is accomplished? - not much.

sgcim If you're looking for something quirky and good, definitely check this out. It will keep you guessing wtf it's about till the end, and even then, you're not sure what you watched- a football feel-good movie, a southern Gothic thriller, a comedy, or an indie morality play.It had me laughing my head off, but it wasn't my typical laugh- it was a laugh followed by a full sentence. I watched it with my brother, which probably wasn't a good idea considering the plot of this film. Tully joins the ranks of Mike Leigh, Hal Hartley and Todd Solondz as a film maker with a unique vision. The part where they harmonized on "Smother Your Demons" was priceless.
