BoardChiri Bad Acting and worse Bad Screenplay
Spoonatects Am i the only one who thinks........Average?
BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
Joanna Mccarty Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.
uninima It has such a painterly quality, visually, which struck us at every turn. And the story was common, familiar, strongly told and emotionally authentic. The characters were clear, believable, and most importantly, lovable. Even the untrustworthy girlfriend, and the abusive dad. One had to forgive them their imperfect humanity, because the filmmaker helped us understand them. My husband, an artist himself, has quick impatience with what he calls "head-knockers," and we usually bail out after fifteen minutes or so. He liked it as much as I did, found the pacing perfect, and I think he related to it too as a man who came of age in similar conditions. I am now eagerly sharing it with everyone I know. Thanks again to Carl Thibeault and his gifted companions for sharing the gift. I can't wait for the next one!
dsmith511 It was so refreshing to see a movie containing real life experiences. No offense to the sci-fi or action heroes of today. We have just become so busy, and fast paced, we forgot the quieter days of yesteryear. When, what you had was just right, and family and friends were most important. The story was something so many can relate to including myself. There were no cell phones, mp3's, DVD's or cars that have the directions right in them. It was a story of trials and triumphs that was very well told. Two thumbs up to the writer. He has a story that is told all unto often today. The acting and the directing were terrific.They put me back to a time of my youth that has been long since forgotten.
dgorick It took me back to a time of best friends and unlimited opportunities, where the world lay at your feet waiting for you to decide what you wanted to do and where you wanted to go. A time of youth and innocence when the realities of life were still on the distant horizon. A time when your desire for something more in life made you leave the security of friends and family and race to that distant horizon and beyond, to embrace all the possibilities and make them your own. Well written and well shot, it definitely evoked the pace and feeling of growing up in small town America without sugar coating the experience. I loved it.
jarangua 'The Garage' is great viewing. If you are past your youth, this will remind you of your younger time, when you had choices to make that would shape your destiny. If you are at that youthful 'turning point' time in your life, you will definitely relate and if you aren't at that place yet, you will learn about the turning points of decision that are soon to be headed your way. 'The Garage' succeeds in evoking many feelings from it's viewer. There are moments of warmth, humor and sadness as well as hopeful expectation and the audience is privy to feel them all. Remember your first love?...your first great loss?...the camaraderie of your best friend?...'The Garage' will bring them all to mind again.
