      Bradley Gibson Film Threat Open is a sexy romp and an adventure with a message that says normality isn’t always what it’s cracked up to be and that relationships, as well as families, come in all varieties. Rated: 7/10 Nov 16, 2023 Full Review Emilie Black Cinema Crazed Open is a decent film with some scenes that feel completely out of place, there is a good story in there, but it gets bogged down by the musical bits. The film ends up feeling like 2 different films mashed up into one without worry about style or tone Rated: 3/5 Nov 8, 2023 Full Review Bill Arceneaux Moviegoing with Bill The best independent Hollywood South flick of the year. Immensely entertaining. Rated: 5/5 Nov 2, 2023 Full Review Roger Moore Movie Nation The songs aren't that good, but they fall well short of terrible. The acting is more indifferent than bad, the direction lackluster and the scripted proceedings are cheesy enough to earn a National Dairy Council seal of approval. Rated: 1/4 Oct 12, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews

      Emily R Open is a captivating film that skillfully blends elements of drama and romance against a backdrop rich in nostalgic musical themes. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/20/23 Full Review Gabriel S This film stands out as a stylish triumph, seamlessly weaving the protagonist's marital struggles with beautifully integrated musical elements. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/18/23 Full Review Gary N Doleac and Williams screenplay skillfully melds inventiveness and wit with poignant examinations of marriage, unrealized aspirations, and family relationships. Picture a blend of Noah Baumbach and Richard Linklater's artistic approaches, combined with the vibrancy of MTV music videos - the result is a thoroughly engaging mix. As for its genre, it defies easy categorization, encompassing a bit of everything. The best approach is to simply plunge in and fully immerse yourself in the experience. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/16/23 Full Review Patrickk C The movie narrates the tale of a woman grappling with marital challenges, who finds herself captivated by a past teenage heartthrob, played with remarkable depth by London. His character, a once-admired icon, now faces diminishing fortunes in the entertainment world, adding a profound element to the story. A highlight of the film is its ingenious incorporation of hallucinatory scenes, where the protagonist envisions herself as the lead singer of an 80's New Wave band. These sequences are visually impressive and effectively symbolize her inner conflicts and dreams. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/17/23 Full Review Craig B For sure this stands out as one of the most unique movies I've watched in years. I found myself completely captivated by its charm. The film is not only humorous and stimulating but also features an exceptionally talented cast and an irresistibly catchy soundtrack. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 11/16/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
