One of the best films i have seen

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

This was a VERY B-movie retelling of the relationship between Corey Feldman and Corey Haim, including the start of their teen friendship during the '80s, their rise to fame and their struggles with drugs, partying, and the untimely death of Haim in 2010. No real secrets given away here and also a one sided telling through the eyes of Corey Feldman alone.This is a very basic movie, it watches sorta like a behind the music documentary with dramatizations of the situations/years unfolding. The acting is bad and the story disjointed or with a skipped over storytelling style. We see their first movie roles, their families, the partying, the drugs, the abuse, its sad.We get glimpses of Michael Jackson, (nothing given away there) and both Feldman and Haim are sexually abused by industry men who are meant to be watching after them. If this movie had been made 10 years ago the scandal and focus would have been on the drug abuse now its sexual abuse. The very sad thing about this is that both of these guys were just used up and spit out by the industry. I remember watching the reality show The Two Coreys which for the most part focused on Haim trying to get or stay sober and break back into Hollywood. Sadly he lost his fight, this is briefly touched on here. The ending is haunting.

Okay, you have to take in account this is a Lifetime movie. The editing and transitions weren't great. The voiceovers weren't necessary and sometimes it felt like a documentary instead of a movie. I think this is the movie Corey Feldman did crowdfunding to get made. He did the best he could do on his budget. With that said, this was a good movie if you take those factors into consideration. The actors were great. The guy who played young Corey Feldman was pretty good even though he did not look exactly like Corey Feldman. But the other actors did favored the younger and older version of the Two Coreys. It's a good story about the sexual deviant behavior in Hollywood with the homosexuality and the pedophilia. Instead of allowing these two boys to be teenagers, they were exposed to an endless supply of drugs, assigned pedophiles to chaperone them. Haim's parents were unaware of the things he went through on the film set. Feldman's parents saw him as a meal ticket instead of treating their child like normal parents would. It seemed like Feldman had to raise himself including fired his father as his manager when he realized his father was stealing from him and making bad management decision that assisted in shortening Feldman's career. When the King of Pop can't reason with you, then you know you're a bad managerI liked how Feldman showed us a glimpse of Michael Jackson through their unique friendship. I don't know why Hollywood and mostly white people are obsessed with labeling Michael Jackson as a pedophile even when Feldman, Macaulay Culkin, Emmanuel Lewis, and even his alleged victims all said he never sexually abused them. Yes, Michael was weird and a man child, but he also had a heart of gold like Feldman allowed us to see in the bathroom scene at Neverland. This was a great movie with the budget Feldman had. It was great honor to Michael Jackson, Corey Haim, and even Carrie Fisher, who tried to give Feldman some words of wisdom on the set of the Burbs movies. Based of what we know from Corey Haim from the biographies, the documentaries, and the scripted reality TV series is that he would have loved this movie and wanted to be apart of it. Even though the ups and downs the Coreys experience through their twenty year off again on again friendship, I am glad that the two Coreys reconciled with each other and that Haim was in a good place when he left this world. Overall, it was a good movie.

What I like best about the film is the nostalgic feeling of the 80's and seeing it through the perspective of the Coreys. Although I must admit I wonder how much of this film is truly through the eyes of Corey Haim. After all, It's been 8 years since his passing, so it's not like he can have a say on it's accuracy. But for the most part it does paint a pretty picture for Corey Feldman in comparison to Corey Haim. Albeit it was interesting to get an idea of how they met and basically relive the 80's with them. Which was quite fun for me being that I'm the same age range as the Coreys.However, regardless of my nostalgic childhood bias, I can't ignore the fact that the direction of the film was half fast.The casting was weak, especially for Corey Feldman. Not only did Elijah Marcano not look like Feldman, which is forgivable, but he definitely did not embodied the energy of Corey Feldman. I've seen enough behind the scenes interviews, commentary and the like to know what Feldog is like. This kid was too laid back and mediocre at best. Shame on the director for not pushing him more. The pacing of the film is somewhat basic. It almost feels like a scripted documentary rather than a movie at times. Also I felt the music was a tiny bit over done at times. In a nut shell I wouldn't expect too much if you are planning to see this film. It's very basic and a good watch if you are curious about the Coreys in general. But you'll probably get a lot more accuracy just from some basic online research. Hopefully the movie will inspire you to do just that. The movie gets a pass, it's just a shame that the movie wasn't as entertaining as it could be if given better direction. Because the story of the Coreys is very interesting from a documentary standpoint. So imagine if you truly stylized their story in the form of a really good movie. What a shame.

I am the exact age of the two Coreys and had their pictures hanging all over my room. I was happy to see this Lifetime movie made. I was upset when the Two Corey's reality show displayed Corey Haim as a drug addict that could not get over his issues being a 40 year old adult. I lost my love for him and believe that Corey Feldman did the right thing by not allowing drugs to come back into his life and possibly having a midlife. He is a strong person, a true survivor. This Movie shows fans how Corey Haim got to that place in his life. Mothers can only protect your children so much and it is sad that this was allowed in Hollywood. It is shameful and sickening. I find it hard to believe that there were no witnesses to this behavior. These kids needed protection and you can't tell me that people were not around that could have stopped this. How many people does it take to make a movie? Hundreds. Shame on those people for not noticing or being silent. I hope that Corey F. knows what a brave person he is and hope he knows understands how many kids he will save by speaking out. I would be sick if this had happened to one of my kids, and most likely dead of an overdose if it would have happened to me. Corey Haim would be proud of his friend. Even though Haim's mother is mad, she will never understand and only see it from a mother's view. She should be thankful to Corey F. This movie was a great tribute to Corey Haim and his fans now understand what he went through. It was better to end this way, than on the Reality two Corey's. I cried hard after it was over. To: Corey Feldman. Thank you for clearing up Michael Jackson's name! You have no idea the pain & doubt that you lifted for his fans and I am so sorry for all your loses that you have endured in your life. Thank you!
