American Reject

Not what I expected but seeing Angelica Hale sing her heart out at the end was epic for me... A little something to just pass time on. This kind of story needed to be told... Cuz it's not always glamour, there is always more than what meets the eye.

This movie has all of my favorite things: a flawed, funny main character; a great premise; and tons of heart. Oh - and music too! The performances are great all around, and the nuanced direction gives dimension to each character. Perfect for movie night...or any night!

American Reject is a feel-good comedy following a 30-something heroine who must come to terms with failure. The film begins with her immense humiliation before all of America, immediately garnering our sympathy for her plight. Though it's clear she has some flaws, we're rooting for her to achieve her dreams (and regain some dignity). Along the way, she grows as a person, makes new friends, and learns some valuable lessons about being a person. This film caused me to laugh and cry. I would recommend American Reject to anyone looking for something both heartfelt and humorous.
