Lukas Klaus H @RT79604594 1d Every now and then, an indie movie comes along that tries something new. Where most filmmakers fail, Joe Bartone manages to make an exciting darkly humorous take on difficult life lessons work. Clearly blood, sweat and tears went into went into making this film and it shows. In a world where studios dictate what we should watch and like, stacking the ad campaigns and reviews, it's important to remember that indie films like this are where risks are taken and real visions are ventured. Not made for pure profit, but made for telling that personal story that matters. Give this film a shot. You won't regret it.

See more Ben C. @RT68411813 1d Movies like “My Movie Starring Paul Dano” aren’t made much anymore. It’s a film where someone, Joe Bartone & friends, have put to work decades of experience to make something unique. It takes some creative swings and for that, you should watch this movie. See more Mark O @Ohhimark1 1d The movie had some pretty funny moments. The story was a bit disjointed but so was the unhinged characters trying to make a crappy failure of a movie within the movie. Acting realistic from decent to terrible depending on the actor. See more Robert P. @Silverback611 1d ‘My Movie Starring Paul Dano’ is a highly entertaining and often absurd take on the desperation of those willing to do anything for a taste of fame and fortune. Super fun & insightful, you can tell everyone had a blast making this film. Creative storytelling at its best, loaded with wildly imaginative characters (and I mean ‘Characters’) terrific performances, and a truly satisfying conclusion. My advice, definitely check it out… And just lay back and enjoy the ride. See more J C @BetterWheel 1d A relatable topic for anyone who is chasing a dream. I would say a bit over the top, but, honestly, it's actually a bit too close to real life for my taste. I typically watch movies to escape the existential dread of chasing my own dream in my day-to-day life. The story does drag a bit in acts one and two, and I get the whole "movie about a movie being made" aspect, but the handheld shaking can be a bit tough for me at times, almost giving me motion sickness. That being said, I do think the content is solid and worth a watch. It really comes together in the third act, and as far as movies go, in my 50 years on earth, I have wasted time watching far worse movies than this. Far worse movies that probably cost the annual operating budget of a mid-size town to create, so that being said, I appreciate what the filmmakers have done with a literal shoestring budget. I really hope they get to play with real money someday. I'm certain they could crush it with solid financial backing. See more Read all reviews
