Reviews

raraha This movie shows us the present Lee and the past Lee. Lee lost his children and he's been left in a dark alone. Joe had helped him get well and Lee has been getting over the distress. And one day,Joe died and his will says that Lee is going to be Patrick's guardian. Lee refuses it first but he decides to be his guardian after all. And then the new life starts and the movie starts showing us Lee's past. Lee's felt a great responsible to his children's loss and he's not sure if he can take care of Patrick. We can see Lee's distress of the past some times on the movie. On the other hand,Patrick doesn't look so sad at Joe's loss. But we see Patrick get sick when he sees the frozen chicken and I think that expresses that Patrick's had the sad feelings and he's been patient. Those things happen between Lee and Patrick and they develop together. But at the last, Lee decides not to take care of Patrick as his parent. The complicated situation is built between them but their relationship is never broken. At the last scene,they ride on the boat and go fishing as they did when Patrick was little. This movie is about the development of each people,Lee,Patrick,Lee's ex-wife Randi and so on. This movie is about their lives' journeys.

thomasjay-52277 Fantastically shot and acted this is one brilliant film about grief, loss and family with compelling characters and a stunning setting the story follows Casey Affleck's character taking on his nephew, son of his Now late brother and shows the growth of the characters post the death of the relative. Fantastically structured and extremely emotional this is a brilliant movie

Giorgia Greselin This movie is probably the most depressing movie I've ever seen. There are dead children, dead parents, divorces and movings against one's will. There are also so many flashbacks to different times in the past that it gets really hard to keep track of what's going on and, if this wasn't already enough, it is slow. Really, really slow. It is one of the few movies I couldn't watch in one sitting. I got so bored and depressed I had to stop and do something else for a while. I really don't understand where all the high ratings and important nominations came from. To me, it completely lacks the entertainment factor.

Ahammed BaBa Manchester by the sea is a beautiful movie. This movie reflects a person, trying to adjust his life filled with misery and pain, suddenly gets an unwanted responsibility to deal with. and in that process of journey, we learn background glimpses of broken relationship, living burden of pain, abandonment of responsibilities, hope resembling re-establishment of relations, moving and living on with truth and reality.Casey was brilliant from the word get go. He let us feel the character deeply. Sublime performance from Lucas, as well, as patrick... It is a pure class hardcore slow drama that for sure would cover a particular class of viewers.
