Kyle M Simplistic realism, occasional comedic and empathetic resonance towards Brian Tyler Henry’s gently performed plight positionally enables an open-minded insight of how beneficially optimistic social extroversion can be, successfully attempted in shedding a light in the unwanted situation. (B) Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 07/17/24 Full Review B L The Outside Story is a great slice of life movie that is reminiscent to classic 80's/90's films. It captured the essence of a guy evolving from the opening image (Social hermit dealing with heartbreak) to the ending (Fighting for his ex and allowing himself to be open to making friendships with his neighbors). I resonated heavy with a lot of the themes. Brian Tyree Henry really excelled in his first leading role. I love how the city of New York was a character on it own. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 12/01/22 Full Review Audience Member Such a funny, heartfelt film. From the directing to the performances to the writing -- I absolutely loved it. A beautiful New York story! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member I loved The Outside Story. Incredibly well written in terms of both story and dialog, such beautifully thought out shots, terrific directing/acting. Bryan Tyree Hill was fantastic and perfectly cast. Also very much loved Hannah Bos and the great performance by the young Olivia Edward. The scoring was TIGHT and perfect. It was well-crafted and executed in every detail. I both laughed out loud and teared up. I really really loved it. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review dave d A powerhouse performance by Brian Tyree Henry lifts an already good film to elite heights. A free flowing, never too serious looks at something that could happen to just about anyone. It's a near miracle that write and director Casimir Nozkowski got 85 minutes out of this concept, but it doesn't feel stretched at all. I wanted more of the characters and i want a lot more of Sunita Mani who is great in everything. She has a fantastic chemistry with Henry which is the highlight of the movie. There are reasons we don't know our neighbors, but they can often be helpful may not be something you get in a fortune cookie, however, it's what we have here! Delightful! Final Score: 8.8/10 Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member I enjoyed the low stakes energy of the film. There aren't many films that are optimistic and life-affirming these days, especially in the indie sphere, and I appreciated that a bunch.
