      Audience Member Tipica pelicula Isat Ps. Mark bebazo Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member This movie was alright, but sort of confusing to me. He is a struggling actor, but he gets invited to Michael Cera's party with famous people like Aubrey Plaza and Alia Shawkat... What?? The kid was cute and it showed me how annoying children can be, and we still love them. I guess that is what made this movie 3 stars instead of one. Also............... RIP goldfish. I get why he did that but that was really sad to me Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member A beautiful heartwarming movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/27/23 Full Review Audience Member me gusto mucho! nose porque tuvo tan mala crítica, sinceramente me pareció una muy linda película. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/29/23 Full Review Audience Member Svakako jedno do boljih ostvarenja koje uklju?uje djecu. Otvoren, intiman, realan. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member I like slow movies, but this is a little extreme. As someone on imdb said, just Mark Webber filming some play time with his son. Though I often like movies like this - a young actor writing and directing his own film - maybe I feel a little duped on this one. I recognized Webber from the start, but I think the only movie of his I really like is Good Dick (Jason Ritter makes a brief appearance in this movie). But reading up on his bio, looks like he had a pretty rough childhood growing up on the streets, and he may be an okay guy as he is now an advocate for the homeless. But man, dragging this thing on for 90 minutes? Whew! He did get a decent cast of young actors, mostly playing themselves at a house party at Michael Cera's. They mostly add nothing to the movie. Shannyn Sossamon is about the only named character in the movie and she's decent. Pretty girl that, I believe, often gets the crazy role. She's not bad in a much more subdued, realistic character. It's not a horrible story idea: young, struggling actor has a child. The mother dies suddenly. He's struck trying to keep his career going while raising the child on his own. But it was just too damn slow and featured the 2-year-old far, far too much. The most effective part of the film was the whole goldfish deal, but I really hope there were some camera tricks going on there. I don't give a shit how artistic your film is supposed to be, you can't just go around killing little fishies for the sake of art.

      Drew Hunt Chicago Reader Creative people often mistakenly assume that the trials of their profession are compelling. Mar 14, 2013 Full Review Gary Goldstein Los Angeles Times "The End of Love" is an exceptionally intimate, human-scaled picture. It's also quite a special piece of work. Rated: 4/5 Feb 28, 2013 Full Review Andy Webster New York Times Mr. Webber, a skilled actor, has not devised a narrative with sufficient momentum or tension to sustain much interest. Rated: 2.5/5 Feb 28, 2013 Full Review Jeremy Mathews Paste Magazine Those willing to drift along with it will find a compelling character study about a man coming to terms with himself, his son, and the people who enter their lives. Rated: 7.1/10 Mar 14, 2013 Full Review S. Jhoanna Robledo Common Sense Media Single dad's struggles are poignant, somewhat mature. Rated: 3/5 Mar 3, 2013 Full Review Brian Orndorf Blu-ray.com Webber appears to be making an audition tape with his second directorial effort, using screen time to display a range of moods and dramatic encounters that could go on to secure future jobs for the actor.
