Not because we get to know him deeply, but because we understand his sensitivity. He’s not the only character who is likable and complex enough to make an impression. The principal is a great character as well. Again, we do not know these people but we understand their movements and we have an idea of their affects. The movie does a great job at allowing us to stand by these characters; but in a narrative that moves at a pace that’s too slow and also somewhat without much direction. It’s almost as though we are looking out through the window… we are watching something that began before we arrive and will continue after we leave; but if we were to get distracted for a few seconds or even more, we wouldn’t miss much. In other words, not the most exciting movie despite great and complex characters Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 09/22/24 Full Review Aaron S Of the two Azazel Jacobs movies I've seen (The Lovers and Terri), he very much is in tune with the awkward and atypical patterns of life that we're all a part of, but just don't talk about all that much or admit that we're okay with. A vice principal palling around with an outsider student is bordering on a crossed boundary, sure, but the way the film portrays all of Terri's relationships is like they are crossing his own personal boundaries as his insecurities and malaise seem to ooze out of him at almost every moment. In the end, his friendship with the vice principal is his most fruitful one and it begs the question of is there really any harm in that? I don't know. This movie certainly doesn't communicate that. Not all people fit into a path that society has prewritten and I think Terri is about accepting and understanding these atypical rhythms people fall into and questions how healthy or unhealthy "fitting in" really is. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/01/23 Full Review isla s I thought this was quite a touching, quirky film. The central character is someone its easy to feel sorry for, he's a real underdog type character. It's sad to see the bullying that happens but there are some amusing moments too. I thought John C Reilly gave a good performance as the principal who sees something in Terri and the friendship the two of them develops is quite nice. Its not an entirely original storyline or anything but I enjoyed watching it for the characters. I suppose it reminded me slightly of Napolean Dynamite. It is sad and touching. I would recommend this film, yes. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Small, low budget but interesting.
