if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

It's easily one of the freshest, sharpest and most enjoyable films of this year.

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.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

As I first started watching i couldn't put my finger on what was so different about the way they all spoke in this movie - then i realized it was the choice of words in the dialog, was strung together so they would all speak in this interesting cadence. It has this quirky vibe to it that really helped with the humor aspects. One favorite was when she says "My car won't go that way". Overall this was a fun movie. It takes a while to see what all of the different characters are really up to, but eventually it starts piecing the puzzle pieces together. What I didn't like, or wasn't a fan of really, was how we never get to see exactly what becomes of the parents, or at least I didn't catch it if they did. Anyways, worth a view I thought.

Almost 2 hours of my life that I will never, ever get back. The only thing good in this movie is Jennifer Morrison. The rest is quite forgettable. A friend of mine had purchased this and gave it to me because she hated so much. I thought, well it can't be that bad, so I gave it a try. Well, I was wrong. Dead wrong. I wasn't the least bit entertained at all. I wasn't sure if I was even watching a movie at all. The story is confusing, the characters are impossible to relate to, and most of all, I felt like I was being tortured. I wish I had gone out to watch a real move at the local theater instead! (I wanted to see 3:10 to Yuma) In short, there are plenty of other independent movies out there that are worth your time. This one isn't.

Morrison performed her erratic character believably and the supporting cast jumped right to her level. Sure, the movie seems to enjoy chaos. And sure, you feel a certain confusion along the way. But I watched this movie twice, and the second viewing was infinitely better. I let the emotions, humor flow over me. And besides, the story is about psychology and someone who wants to tell a good story -- who happens to be pretty messed up. I guess the ideas behind the movie, plus how surprising the characters behave, made it worth it for me. I have to admit I only watched this movie as an obsessive "House" fan but I enjoyed it much more than I anticipated.This film may not be for everyone, but if you like indie pictures that are specific, kinda difficult, but really freaking funny, with a great cast and a head trip, I would recommend it.

I do not recommend this movie for the following reasons: 1) The story is confusing, 2) It puts you to sleep, 3) The camera work is poor quality. I am a fan of Jennifer Morrison from the TV show "House," but her acting was unacceptable here.It was almost as if there was no director and the poor girl had to figure it out on her own. The cinematography reminds me of a home video, like something my little brother would do. It's a shame, because there was some potential here. But whatever potential there was has been erased by poor quality in every area, specifically the direction, production design, cinematography, music, and editing.I think the filmmakers didn't know exactly what their goals were: to make us laugh? Scare us? Because the only thing they succeed in doing is confusing us. Rather than wasting your time watching this amateur production, go to the movie theater and watch a real intelligent movie.I highly recommend watching a good thriller like "Fracture," "Donnie Darko," or "Disturbia." "Flourish" wants very badly to be like those movies but simply fails because the screenplay has no destination. It's like riding a plane for hours without knowing where you're headed -- forever. If I were to grade this movie I would give it a D+.
