tom m A wee bit on the stupid side, but okay. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Screenplay is, like, fine. But the cast elevates it, and the final product is really sweet. The tone is just mumbly enough to highlight how opposite ideas of self-worth are interconnected, and how trying to grow can send you swinging between what you think you need and what you think you deserve. Could do with some more actual blind people involved in creating the movie's perspective. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend. Nick Krull, Adam Scott, and Jenny Slate carry this well together and are pretty funny. I'm torn on whether or not Scott's portrayal of a blind person is complimentary or insulting, but I'll have to wait until a blind person sees it to hear what they say. The "best friend's girl" trope is fun, and they definitely make this movie special, even for "blind movies", the idea of him being an over-achieving athlete is very unique. As funny as this movie can be, as much as a "romance" movie as this is, it is definitely a "bromance" movie first. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Fueled by its strong cast, My Blind Brother is perfectly enjoyable dramedy that seemingly doesn't have a lot to say...but maybe that's the point. Family and interpersonal drama isn't exclusive to "normal" families and "normal" people. My Blind Brother doesn't try to emphasize Adam Scott's character's disability to teach lessons (albeit on a couple occasions) but is simply a part of the narrative. Each of its main characters are funny, enjoyable to watch, and endearing. You'll see better dramedies, but this is a good one. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member Actually one of the best romantic comedies ever. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/31/21 Full Review Audience Member Taking the romantic comedy and adding enough fresh nuances to make this movie a delight. The dialogue, the characters and the plot were all treated well and paced perfectly. Nothing dragged, and each moment felt genuine and perfectly allotted. My heart skipped a beat when I saw Zoe Kazan in the film, but she was not utilized enough for my taste. Otherwise, a fun movie.
