Theresa Where Parachute excels and why it ought to be required viewing: it doesnt particularly emphasize a right or wrong way to go about existing within the boundaries of ones mental health, but rather it just restates its core thesis: Nobody's perfect and to be human is to live with yourself. Im simplifying it, I think, but even amidst all our pain, there is still so much love to go around if we let it (read: it takes work and care and commitment to ourselves first and foremost). And its nice to be reminded of that. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Shea J I really enjoy slice-of-life films that depict complex relationships and allow them to be resolved with some measure of authenticity, as opposed to more traditional over-simplification that exclusively lobbies for audience satisfaction. This is one of those that fits the former description and feels true to life. Great cast who offer strong performances throughout, particularly the two leads and Joel McHale as an alcoholic father and Dave Bautista as a ... checks notes ... murder-mystery dinner club owner. An impressive directorial debut by Brittany Snow, who I can imagine springboarding from Parachute into a very solid career directing character-driven indies. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/23/25 Full Review justin b Gave it two stars because the main actors were quite good. The movie itself is hard to watch. The lead character is a nightmare (written that way on purpose) and to be honest maybe this is a warning to choose wisely before getting in a relationship? Was not moving enough to really get too upset one way or another at this. Another rom-com with flawed people you will forget a day after watching. The actors were great though. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review rosadobber a Tedious. More producer credits than cast and the end credits last forever. Only watch somewhere that you can walk away. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 07/27/24 Full Review Dean C I resonated with this film as someone who is passionate about mental health, and I know it could have suffered from being too overdramatic. With it’s likeable and realistic characters, I was emotionally attached to them. Although it was difficult at times to see the main character battle through her own mental health issues, Eaton delivered such a powerful performance. I just wish this film could be made available more widely - I’m sure there are many people who can relate to Riley. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/24 Full Review Elisha I "Figuring other people's mysteries, distracts from listening my own head''. My favourite line from the movie.
