Pretty Good
A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
View MoreOne of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
View MoreWhat drew me into watching was the opening music. Then I was lured further by great characters and excellent acting. Sure, it has small town America and small independent film feel, but that becomes its charming feature.But what lifted it to the 10 rating for me was the gentle, flowing lyrical music that just warmed my heart and added more than any visual could.Take it as it is and watch it lightly. It should then beguile you.
View More"Slight" is the word that springs spontaneously to mind after watching this tiny and trite, almost microscopic film. It feels more like a long preview of something better than a completed piece of art and we are left waiting for and wanting something, anything to seriously surprise or deeply delight us. Very little ever occurs at all, no characters are layered, or unpredictable or transformed, and much of what action there is is transparently unreal and therefore uninvolving. And yet, movies like this deserve their due faint praise, if for no other reason than that they successfully rise above the great and nearly constant morass of truly gaggable junkwork that so many current features seem to be made entirely of. It is not awful. It is peaceful and pleasant and pretty throughout. No jiggly camera, no cartoonish sex or antihuman violence. The acting and production is professionally competent. I'm almost grateful after having seen it... it didn't hurt me. It didn't empty my soul or defile my mind, and these days that is almost enough for a recommendation. Almost, almost. When just not being betrayed by a movie feels like a needed gift... what does that tell you about where we are in cinema today?
View MoreI really liked this film. 3 Days of Normal is a cute story about life in a small New Hampshire town. The cinematography of this beautiful and picturesque rural town was great. It was an entertaining movie to watch and I laughed at many parts. I think the acting is good and it has an interesting plot. 3 Days of Normal is simply a good, fun movie to watch. It is a well made independent film and I hope many other people have an opportunity to see it. I recommend this movie and hope others will have a chance to watch and enjoy it as much as I did. I will definitely be telling people about this film. This was a job well done. I loved this movie! All in all, a good and enjoyable movie. If you have not seen it, I hope you will.
View MoreBiased as I am since it is set in the town that I live in, I found this movie to be cute, endearing and well made. For the most part the directors stayed away from the temptation to add violent or objectionable material while still creating a realistic portrayal of real people going about their daily lives. The cinematography was worth of an independent film such as this one, with unusual but revealing camera work throughout. The script stuck to a simple narrative while accurately depicting life as a local in a small town. There were a few continuity issues, but these were not recognizable in the moment. The acting, for the most part, was strong. The current of the film was laid back and made one feel at home. All in all, a good, family oriented film.
