Diana S Lacks a proper resolution, in my opinion, but otherwise a sensitive portrait of mental illness. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/04/23 Full Review Rumi W ‘Gabriel' is exactly what a good indie film should be! ‘Gabriel' is a sad story, that doesn't rub it in your face, but instead invites you to listen to what it has to say. With a fanatic cast and script. And seeing how this is Lou Howe's first and only feature film to date, a very well made one! And of course, Rory Culkin's performance as Gabriel blows me away every time! He truly embodies what it feels like to live with a mental illness and sells it completely! A fantastic film, that is underrated and overlooked. This is probably Rory Culkin's best role to date! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/15/23 Full Review Audience Member Rory Culkin for the most part gives a very good performance, but what frustrates me is the time-length which ruins a great opportunity to really dive deep into this character, we never get to really learn much about Gabriel and why he's such a troubled individual, I guess sometimes it's up to audience to think about it which sometimes can work in films; but in the case with this film, it doesn't really give us a full understanding on this character specifically. The ending was also a mixed-bag for me, it didn't really give much of an explanation and just makes you scratch your head and ask yourself so many questions which isn't necessary for such a simple film like this . None the less I think it's still a very interesting film about mental disability and depression and how it could tie into your reality and how it could affect your loved ones that surround you. I'd say it's worth a watch. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/17/23 Full Review Audience Member Ambitious and courageous portrait of a young man (Rory Culkin) suffering from severe mental illness and depression. Not an easy watch but for some, insightful. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/19 Full Review Audience Member Very powerful film about mental illness. Rory Culkin is definitely an actor to watch. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Rory Culkin is just captivating.
