The plot here didn't work for me, but I really adore this cast and I think this director will make something great.

A movie... needs to go somewhere, and "Gully" basically doesn't.

Uncertain what story it's telling, Nabil Elderkin's Gully is only held together by the sheer talent of its young cast.

Rated: 1.5/4

We’re left with a lot of questions and too many ideas that never get the full treatment they deserve.

Rated: 2/5

Stream it for the acting, which is terrific. But be aware that Gully can’t fully bring to fruition its ideas about cyclical violence, generational trauma, and the healing qualities of friendship.

Not great, but both its impressive cast and its veteran music video helmer director show real promise, even if the film itself doesn't exactly stick the landing.

Rated: 5/10

a beautiful, harrowing and heart shattering movie about three friends and the severe trauma they face in their own separate lives and how within their unbreakable bonds they find strength, love, escapism and family, they fight for each other in the most brutal ways, and although some of the brutality was unjustified, i found myself supporting them because they were pretty loveable teens looking for a way out of their darkened worlds that they didn't ask to be a part of. absolutely fantastic, gripping, raw and real movie, i was sobbing, ugly crying by the end.

Um filme pesado, desde o flashback dos protagonistas, com diversos tipos de abusos e violência, contra as crianças ou seus pais, um retrato fiel da periferia, maltratada e marginalizada, um filme dolorido… Fotografia escura, flerta com os games em bons momentos, muito intimista, necessário e revoltante… Crianças de periferia sofrendo mais que qualquer adulto, uma realidade sombria e assustadora… Emocionante...

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

at first the violence felt a little harsh and out of context i thought maybe it's just there for shock value. but as i got to see more into the characters minds and lives it started to make sense. i thought the movie was raw and beautiful in its complexity and showcased the spectrum of the human emotion. the main characters could've beeb any other characters in the movie and i think that what made it so good and realistic. the movie really got to me, and i recommend going into watching it with your heart rather than your head
