The greatest movie ever made..!

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Casey Duggan
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Bessie Smyth
Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

I have no words to describe this movie, it's not the most amazing movie i've seen, but, it cracked me...It is a simple story, beautifully acted, beautifully written.I saw it not knowing what to expect, but i love Melanie Laurent, so i said well i'm giving this film a try, and when the movie ended... i was speechlessI is so real, it has so much emotion, there is no fancy things, no big things, no special effects, no no thing, it's just a feeling, the movie it's simply that, emotions.The simplicity of this movie, its beauty, everything about it is perfect.Watch it.. you won't regret it

Don't Worry, I'm Fine is a relatively simple film, but it soars thanks entirely to Melanie Laurent's revelatory performance. The film is about this young woman's struggle to go from being entirely dependent on others to learning how to rely on herself and be her own woman, and along the way Laurent goes through the darkest stages of depression and finds happiness. She keeps us with her the entire time, our heart hurting when her's does and our spirits lifting right with her. The kind of emotion that she digs into and pulls out is rare to see in film these days, but she is at the peak of the acting world. The way she emotes her struggle is wrenching and very empathetic. As a whole the film doesn't have a lot going for it, it sticks pretty close to it's one theme and goes with it, but at the end of the day it's a character piece that finds it's strength in Laurent's extraordinary work here.

Wow, how do you review this film without spoiling has to be magic to me? For a non-suspense film, it is tremendously relying on surprise and the unexpected end is key. However this film also succeeds to remain interesting at the second viewing, despite not having anything to learn at the end. Once you know the truth, you look very differently at the secondary roles, especially the father (Kad Merad). From jerk, he becomes a loving father doing what he thinks the best and/or what he can. This is overall magnificent, emotional without being soapy and the main track of the soundtrack is also wonderful. I cannot stress enough that you should watch it a minimum of twice.

"Je vais bien" is built on a shaky premise. A big thing happens to a small family, and the script assumes that loving parents could choose to hide it from their grown-up kid. Not once, not twice, but for good. Paul (Kad Merad, excellent) and Isabelle go to no small pains to conceal the truth. The uncertainty sends their 19-year old daughter Lili (Mélanie Laurent, not too hard to look at) down a one-way spiral of self-destruction. The good news is, most of the story works even if we don't buy into the initial premise. Lili's troubles run way deeper than is apparent at first, so the parental scheme acts only as the trigger of her depression. In a self-prescribed regimen of denial, all she ever really does is smoke. We see Lili not eating, Lili not talking, and nobody wants ice-cream.
