Measure of a Man (2018) Reviews

• Not top comedy or even top drama ,, but i really liked it

  Aktham_Tashtush2018-08-15

  The movie is purposeful has a clear message and that is what it's all about, The plot is strong and surprisingly the script is well written, and the events are connected and goes fast and smooth without any dull moments. "Accept yourself but never stop improving". The casting was really good ,, loved Blake Cooper even though he isn't a fat anymore, he had that honest, pure and innocent sense of humor ... we haven't seen much of Judy Greer or Luke Wilson, i love the folks but their appearance was so minimum ,, Donald Sutherland was also good ,, but after all lets be honest it was all about that "Bobby Marks" kid. Anyway, heartwarming family movie , definitely recommended.

• A film about growth

  This film tells the story of a 17 year old man who experiences a life changing summer holiday. On the macro level, the story is satisfying and heartwarming. It is good to see the changes in the young man. His experiences are quite saddening, but it leads up growth.

• Not as good as the book.

  brentandlori-004892019-05-17

  Measure of a Man is based on the novel One Fat Summer. The book looks at a young man who overeats and has little focus through his life. When he gets a job and learns to face adversity he learns to be a man. The movie follows the novel for the most part, but loses the humor, and misses the whole point of learning independence and self worth through work and effort. The movie seems to have him sitting around the cabin bored far more often than the book did. I may have liked the movie more if I had not read the book, but I think most people will come to this movie hoping to see the book brought to life.

• Review Based on the First (painful) 30 Minutes

  A bullied fat city kid summers in the country and takes a part time job cleaning a rich persons house and yard. Stuff happens, I guess. I watched about 30 minutes and couldn't go on.
