Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

I am aware that in terms of acting or cinematography, this movie received a lot of nominations. But for me there are some disturbing things from what is presented in it.This film seems to teach about freedom, i.e do not want to be bound by norms or rules that have been generally accepted. But is it true that someone can indeed be free like that? Is not it in the so-called freedom by Ben Cash, he also has some rules that his children must do? Therefore, the problem is not whether a person is free of rules or bound by rules (basically, everyone is bound by the rules of life). The problem is that Cash is too arrogant to accept the prevailing rules and thinks that his own rules of life are the most correct.In his arrogance, thinking that his rule or lifestyle is the most correct one, Cash teaches his children to steal. They stole food in the supermarket, stole his mother's body and taught his children to fight the police (the authorities).In his arrogance that believes his lifestyle is right, Cash teaches that a person is allowed to be naked in a public place. Cash might think that why should we be governed by norms that are generally prevalent in society in naked affairs? Does not every man have a penis? What is wrong with showing a penis that is a member of the body itself to anyone? Cash does not want to be governed by such politeness norms. But the irony is, Cash himself made the rule that it should not be naked at meals? Is not this an ambiguity? Is not this once pointed out that the main reason Cash does what he does is not to support freedom, but that he does not want to recognize the rules of others and only acknowledge his own rules. Cash teaches his children not to be tolerant of others, no need to respect the beliefs of others. Just do what they think is right, no need to care about others. What kind of parent is this?I am deeply disappointed that the value of a film is as if it is only placed on how actors play their roles, or on how unique a story is. Why is it that we are not disturbed by the teachings of wild life that potentially damage the soul of a child? Or at least limiting a child to seeing the world in a broader way? In Cash's effort to give his children freedom to live in nature, Cash has limited their freedom of interaction and normal relationships with others who are different from them.Are we not aware that by assigning high marks to such film like this one, we indirectly also agree on a man's lifestyle that teaches his children to steal? So, if you think this is good, do you want to raise your own children in this manner?

This film filled with philosophy. One of the quote from the movie is "Power to the people, stick it to the the man" from my perspective i think the movie wants to told us Creating your life with your own power not overshadowing by the government or the society. Whatever you do , do with your own choice and make the world a better place, no one can't stop you from doing that but always remember respect other's viewpoint.
Everything in this movie plot, acting, editing, cinematography, soundtrack all are very good. Especially cinematography and soundtrack. Some shots in this movie are simple but filled with complexity at the same time and gorgeous to look at.
And when you listen to the soundtrack i'm am sure you will be lost, lost in your own imagination, your own world.

This movie is about a family who live their entire lives in the wild. The movie is beautifully written and the actors do an amazing job showing the various emotion that flows throughout the movie. Also the soundtracks goes incredibly well with the movie. In all I really enjoyed watching this movie and I highly recommend, watching this movie.

This was a movie I really wanted to enjoy but failed too because of the lack of depth in the story line and the inconsistent premise of a family "off the grid". Contradiction in the lives of this family and fanciful ideals fail to really make a convincing statement about views of modern society and the viable alternatives being portrayed in this film.
The ending was cringing and goofy to say the least but I'm sure some will love this unrealistic idealistic waste of 2 hrs.
