The trailer and summary of this movie are absurdly misleading. They may make you think this is a beautiful movie about childhood and upbringing, just like Little Miss Sunshine, but it's definitely not like that.

Here, we have Halley, a terrible, irresponsible single mother who raises her 7-year-old daughter in the worst possible way in a motel in Florida. This woman says bad words in ... read more

Williem Dafoe is a good actor but this movie is a waste of time.

I wasn’t really sure what to expect from this flick but since it had been very well received, I was quite eager to check it out. Well, to be honest, it didn’t turn out to be an easy watch but since it was from the same guy who gave us ‘Tangerine’, it was hardly surprising. Indeed, Sean Baker gave us once again a movie without an actual plot and, in fact, during the whole thing, pretty much... read more

Description: Warm, winning, and gloriously alive, Sean Baker’s The Florida Project is a deeply moving and unforgettably poignant look at childhood. Set on a stretch of highway just outside the imagined utopia of Disney World, The Florida Project follows six-year-old Moonee (Brooklynn Prince in a stunning breakout turn) and her rebellious mother Halley (Bria Vinai, another major discovery) over the course of a single summer. The two live week to week at “The Magic Castle,” a budget hotel managed by Bobby (a career-best Willem Dafoe), whose stern exterior hides a deep reservoir of kindness and compassion. Despite her harsh surroundings, ... (more)

" First Viewing Viewing Date: June 6th Via: Stan. Plot: Set over one summer, the film follows precocious six-year-old Moonee as she courts mischief and adventure with her ragtag playmates and bonds with her rebellious but caring mother, all while living in the shadows of Walt Disney World. Rating: 7.8/10 Why Did I Watch It? This has been on my watchlist since it first came out, and I even once rented it for 99c but didn't get around to it during the rental period. It leaves Stan. in a few day"
