Sorry, we can't find any suggestions at the moment.
Teddy and Lloyd, two guys in their late twenties, are each at a crossroads. Teddy, hyper-sensitive and eager to please, was a very popular basketball player who thrived in high school and never wanted to leave. Lloyd, prone to bitterness and overly defensive, was an extremely reserved artist who felt invisible in high school and couldn't wait to actually disappear from there. Ten years after graduating, Teddy and Lloyd are both depressed and feeling all but hopeless. Due to getting caught up in trying to constantly have a good time in high school and college, Teddy lost focus and let his chances at a basketball career slip away. He dropped out of college quickly and now mostly just pines for his glory days. After marrying the woman of his dreams and deciding not to travel the world and paint, Lloyd is now divorced and finds himself teaching (not well, at that) art at the very high school he couldn't wait to escape. At their ten-year reunion, Teddy and Lloyd strike up a friendship and soon decide that they have to turn things around. Believing that they've overcomplicated their lives to such an extent that they're now totally stagnant and lost, they figure that they need to break things back down to basics and set a very clear, "simple" goal for themselves: to be awesome.
Leave your thoughts about Being Awesome.
| Shockya.comBrent SimonCycles through well-worn clichés of stuck-in-a-rut, cusp-of-thirtysomething frustration, but adds nothing much new or of interest to the emotionally-adrift-guys sub-genre. |
| User ReviewSteve BI caught this on Amazon Prime tonight. I loved it. I'm heading to my reunion next week, and have been going through some of those unwanted emotions I thought were dead and gone. Of course they are not. This film effectively uses that ugly stew of emotions as the grabber, and then subtlety unwinds those feelings into a touching, nuanced story about a past that festers, about owning our shortcomings, and ultimately about loving ourselves and others. This guy is an excellent story teller. The pace, the casting, the movement from inciting problem to complex character development, the genuine care he has for all,of his characters, is all masterfully done. It is refreshing in this time of caveman news and politics to see someone create with care and sensitivity. |
| User ReviewTerence FLiked it. Would have liked a different ending but I won't spoil that |
| User ReviewRoger GBeing awesome in high school can continue through college and even through work, maybe continue all of your life, but, not likely. Is it just a self-realization due to the timing in one's life? If you weren't awesome, can you become awesome later? Can you make yourself awesome? Watch this film and get the answer. |
