Review of Brigsby Bear (2017) by Tim G — 16 Nov 2017

This is possibly the most unusual film I've seen all year. In a way it's an homage to fandom, creativity and nostalgic call backs in the ever changing nature of one's life. At first I thought it was an unusual world set up by unusual people, only for the main character to then experience a 'Fish out of the Water' scenario, which outdoes Diana Prince's walk into the world of men.

Except here, we have a young man who'd been fed a faux kids TV show exclusively produced for no one else, even when trying to adjust to the modern standards of living does he find it in himself to unleash his creative potential.

The film's story is overall, an endearing, entertaining and truly outlandish and unique concept that work within it's overarching themes of defining one's place in the world, their creative outlook and what really inspires them.

Though at it's heart is it's surrealism able to encapsulate the imagination of all audiences, I even though the cast was superb in their role especially from those not as well known as others.

I can't highly recommend this film enough than I already have, it's ability to keep a small spectacle but a larger than life concept is exception and should be experienced one way or another.
