Leave your thoughts about Beware the Gonzo.
| Television Without PityEthan AlterWhile it covers familiar ground, it does so with a light touch. |
| Film Journal InternationalFrank LoveceA crusading young reporter's high-school underground newspaper becomes a rallying point for the bullied and the outcast in this low-budget drama filmed in Brooklyn and Queens. |
| User ReviewBrad KA super nice hot Saturday afternoon Netflix surprise. Not only does this nice teen romcom deliver a touching gentle love story centerred around date rape and healing it delivers a strong message about the state of the Journalism Machine we find ourselves stuck with. |
| User ReviewJay SThis was a great tale of a young man finding his voice without it being all faggy. |
| User ReviewLyon GThis movie is a fantasic work that really seems to know what it is talking about. |
| User ReviewDomenique DIt's the first week of Senior year and already, Gonzo Gilman has been kicked off the school paper and his friends are being bullied. Gonzo is a smart kid and he knows better than anyone that the pen is mightier than the sword. With the help of his loser buddies, Gonzo comes up with a plan to create the anti-newspaper of his High School, a publication that focuses on the negatives of the school and it's students. Most of these High School themed movies are about the popular kids drama or the unknown student who becomes a legend, but how often do you see the losers rise up against the popular kids, in a non-violent way? This story was written by Bryan Goluboff, who also wrote the screen play for one of my favorite movies, The Basketball Diaries. Much like that film, this one is as clever as it is funny. Ezra Miller stars as Gonzo, and gives the best performance I've seen him give. Yes, he was great in Perks of Being a Wallflower, but he has a whole different energy here, and I think it might have something to do with Miller's personal life. Miller is openly gay and has often talked about how difficult it's been for him. The character he's playing here, Gonzo Gilman, is a cult hero for every kid that's ever been bullied and didn't know what to do about it, and in a way I think this role was Miller's way of fighting back against what happened to him. He's opposed by Jesse McCartney, the most popular kid in school. I think McCartney is a tremendous talent and he's a good looking kid. For that reason, he's always portrayed as this sweet, loveable guy, and it was really great to see him in a different type of role. Sometimes the best way to rejuvenate your career is by trying something new and it works here. Beware The Gonzo is a refreshingly unique, independent film, with a great young cast, and an amazing writer, who is very particular about what he does. Everything comes together to create something terrific that we really haven't seen before. I can honestly say I loved every minute of this film and for that it's receives the label of must see movie! |
| User ReviewSerenity TFunny and different...not the usual Hollywood schlock. |
| User ReviewJesson GKinda like Mean Girls, but more...unisex. |
| User ReviewAiu NEverything Ezra takes into the screen, he leaves making a big impression, making you believe it's real. This started out shallow but ended in a very good note. Love it! |
| User ReviewCynthia SI found this movie very enjoyable, clever, and well done...even though I seem to be in the minority. I think that Ezra Miller is a very fine young actor, and I absolutely love the quirky roles that he takes on. This one included... |
