It's movies like these that keep storytelling in film alive. 5 stars. For my indie fans out there be sure to support 'The Lie" when it comes out 11/18/11, check out the trailer. It looks like it's gonna be a winner.
i love most mumblecore. I hated this. I feel like the director was trying to take a glimpse into the lives bunch of sheltered, uncultured, over self-conscious white kids.(maybe that's what he was going for) but totally unrelatable, which is weird cause that's why i like mumblecore, i can relate to it. I just kept thinking, are there people really like this?
my asshole with an ass-grape can shit mumblecore better than anything out right now. this film is made by those boring art school fags for art school fags who overanalyse everything and imagine they get some profound message from wasting 2 hrs watching this.
hard to believe this was released almost 10 years ago, its just so depressing to know youve watched this 10 years ago, man this must make people feel so old.
somtimes life is so........pfa\kndfsfweufdnednafcwfdlcajds!?!!!!!!!!?!?!?!//??!?!/
I found this movie by chance Saturday night on TV and I'm so glad I did. The critics are right, it's not pretentious like most films in this genre. It wasn't "trying hard" at all but naturally presenting real human emotions. This film made me uncomfortable at times because it brought back some memories but despite it all, I really enjoyed it. Now I feel like having a beer.

Just overrated garbage in my opinion. I know its supposed to be a "realistic" portrayal of American life but seriously, I don't know a single person who's life consists of "ums" and "i dont knows" and taking 5 minutes to answer every question as if they were mentally impaired. But some how many people find this movie "beautiful" and "well crafted". Just because no good movies have come out since the 1980s doesnt mean we should throw a gold medal on every "different" one. Truly dissapointing.
i know TONS of people who are like this but at the same time i don't see it as a portrayal of a typical american but just a very honest portrayal of these particular people.
I'm not sure of what the names of the songs are but they're all by the band, Bishop Allen. I know for sure that the last song is called "Things Are What You Make of Them" from their album, "Charm School." The guy who plays Alex is in the band, as well the guy who plays Alex's roommate (who says "Want a gummy bear?" in the trailer).
This film is overrated. I was bored through the whole thing. It had no plot and the characters were dull. A better mumblecore movie is "Hannah Takes the Stairs."
GAAAAAAAY!!!!!!!

I already knew that, but thanks though. I was really referring to the very first song played, but I suppose no one knows.
