Review of The Kids Are All Right (2010) by Spangle — 02 Mar 2016
The Kids Are All Right is my favorite type of movie; it's human. A film about the human condition, love, passion, sexuality, and family, The Kids Are All Right is a remarkably human film that can be both funny and moving seamlessly.
The writing and direction from Lisa Cholodenko is authentic and subtle, respectively. This all-star cast is fantastic, led by Julianne Moore, Mark Ruffalo, and Mia Wasikowska. All of the characters here feel authentic and the actors all really capture the essence of the characters and what they represent on the larger scale.
On the whole, this is what makes the film so great; it feels like a slice of life type film. It is just a segment of the characters' lives and how things turn out, we do not know but it does not truly matter.
What does matter is how they handled this major situation in their lives. For this portrayal of life, this film is a winner.
