I noticed the low rating but failed to read any reviews. Mainly because I didn't care and also I'd already watched some of the movie before I went to the page. I had to make sure the brother was who I thought he was...anyway...so I thought this was a good movie! It made me laugh and made me tear up a few times. I thought the writing was so real sometimes and let's be serious more than one storyline is very real for someone somewhere! I'm guessing some people might think it made fun, or made lighten of mental illness. I still haven't read any reviews so just a guess as to the rating. I didn't see it that way at all. It wouldn't surprise me at all if the writer/director knows mental Illness first hand, this just had some very real elements as far as bi polar goes. All that aside, if it was all 100% fictional it was still good! Smart funny writing and very well cast. I haven't seen or heard of this girl in anything else but I'll be looking into that. I liked her and I liked this movie.
