Dr. Bird's Advice for Sad Poets

I appreciate the reality this movie depicts of the very serious mental health issues that exists in our youth today. Very beautiful filmed! Has some laughs, also brings some tears. Loved it overall.

This movie is kind of boring. We kind of seen this before. A troubled teenager, with a lot of toughs.If you think that a depressed teenager in love is interesting or if you have insomnia watch this now.

You can tell from the get go that this film is made from a book and that who made the film is from New York. It's the perfect blend of introspection and neurosis. Nicely acted, touching at the same time the weird and wonderful perspective on life that young people have, full of feeling and confusion, and the reality of one's existence. Yes, it ends predictably with the young'un reaching maturity, but it also celebrates youth, with all of its idiosyncrasies. The references to classic literature were kept at a minimum, while the occasional foray into different movie styles was just a one time gimmick and less something to distract from the story.

Bottom line: good film, fresh take, a bit slow and not by any means perfect, but better than what I've seen lately.

This film is a bit too quirky for my taste. I don't connect with the story or the characters.

This movie is probably the end of Lucas Jade Zumman's acting career. I've tried to watch this movie twice, both times couldn't make myself finish it, such a gibberish movie, extremely boring too.
