Review of Short Term 12 (2013) by John L — 27 Jun 2014
I've never actually thought of a film as an "emotional rollercoaster", but that is exactly what we have here. Wow. For every heart-wrenching scene, there is an uplifting and heartfelt performance at the center.
This is Brie Larson's best performance. These people feel real. Their stories demand to be told. The script does a great job of sprinkling in thought-provoking ideas and symbols while maintaining a balanced and realistic nature.
I loved every second of it.
