Review of Short Term 12 (2013) by Mubariz S — 10 Jan 2014
Holy Shit! What a great movie this is. A movie that has so much heart hasn't come by in a long, long while. Gravity, American Hustle and all those hyped up movies in contention for his year's Oscar pale in comparison to this movie. A great script, some very real performances, amazing screenplay and perfect direction make this movie an instant classic. It will be etched in my mind forever.
Brie Larson, as Grace is exceptional and John Gallagher Jr. (of Newsroom) is extremely talented and right on the money as Mason. Kaitlyn Dever turns in a mature performance for a 17 year old and Keith Stanfield plays the subdued Marcus to a tee.
A must watch movie and easily one of the best, if not the best movie of the year.
