Leave your thoughts about Team Picture.
| Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)John BeifussAn ironic title for a story about an anti-social hero, 'Team Picture' perfectly captures a young man at a moment of almost pure indecision. If Hollywood makes action movies, this is an inaction movie: a film about deferring rather than engaging with life. |
| User ReviewJenn TFunny and singular. I found Dave alternately infuriating and likable, his roommate both comic and sad. They have a Maverick-Goose thing going. |
| User ReviewFrances Bi really enjoyed the lethargic pace/characters/themes. it's not empty, but full of emptiness and i love that. really explores the feeling of really not knowing what to do with yourself, sometimes finding something that matters to you, but most of the time (lazily) resisting what society sees as "successful". long story short, i love how the style/acting evokes the feeling of being lost & confused. |
| User ReviewMatthew SMy second attempt at watching a mumblecore movie all the way through, and it came painfully close to becoming my second failure. Which tells you that it's better than Hannah Takes the Stairs, but that's not saying much. Flat characters, mediocre acting (At best. The breakup scene in the beginning made me want to break my screen), but once the romance picked up (more than halfway through the movie, far too late to establish a plot) it managed to redeem itself. A little. |
