After knowing Troian Bellisario as her most renowned role of Spencer Hastings, I'd like to begin my review by commending Troian on her absolute raw talent as an actress. Not once did I confuse the two characters. Not once did I see Spencer- this was purely Olivia. Feed was artistic, beautifully ugly, vehement, and so much more. In comparison to To The Bone, Feed delved deep into the sole cause of an eating disorder, allowing non-sufferers to experience and understand what it's really like in the mind of someone with anorexia. To personify the voice in her head as her deceased twin was something done so subtly, but with such artistic intelligence and in the final scenes, when she battles internally, truly makes one sympathise with Olivia. Congratulations, Troian. This is the most thought provoking movie I have seen in a long time, it's just a shame it came out so close to To The Bone, because this film deserves every award and tenfold.

This is a really beautiful and haunting movie about a serious subject. I feel like I actually understand a tiny bit what having an eating disorder would feel like even though I've never been through it myself. The cinematography was superb, and so was Troian's acting. I was captivated by every moment in this film, which is an extreme rarity.

I really enjoyed this movie. I felt the acting and writing were both very well done - the story really took you with her into her world and descent into what manifested as her eating disorder (which is why I think the falling metaphor is used throughout) and the struggle to try and climb back up. I felt the relationship with her twin brother and the use of his character to illustrate her fall was well executed. I did have a bit of a struggle with their relationship at times. There were glimpses of something more, almost incest, but you know that is just from her mind so was there something to that potential story line? He seemed very angry with her at the party when he saw her with her boyfriend - more so than I would think would come from a 'protective brother' anger and I was left with that question, unanswered by the movie. Was he that angry because there were feelings of closeness that went beyond 'normal' between siblings or was it something else? I also was left with a few questions about Casey's character - similar to those another reviewer already mentioned. Still, I enjoyed the movie very much. I thought the ending was well done and true to struggles with ED or and other mental disorders, such as depression/anxiety. There's no quick fix or "cure" - there is always a struggle of some form.

This movie really reminds me of Norman bates from the show hates motel. Main character loses loved one and then start imagining they're still alive and goes on with their lives only for the main character to develop mental issues. I really enjoyed it as it's not a role I see Tom Felton In too often

I stumbled across this movie and am shocked that I've never heard about it before. It should be well known at the very fact of how raw, realistic, and accurate it is. The portrayal of family, grief and eating disorders is almost too touching. I found myself crying through many scenes as I could truly feel the actors pain. Tom and Torian did a phenomenal job and deserve much more praise for these roles.

Although an eating disorder comes into play as the sister tries to quickly join her twin brother I'm not sure if that is the main focus of this story. It seems that anxiety disorder, depression, hallucinations, schizophrenia, and even a possibility of a brain injury from her car accident created this alternate reality that we experience throughout the story. Very well acted, and of course the writers had to leave a "you decide the ending" ending.

Troian Bellisario is a main character in the hit TV series pretty little liars which where most people know her best from although most people don't that she herself struggled with an eating disorder for years which is why this movie if so personal. To be honest before watching this i knew hardly anything about eating disorders but afterwards I had a desire to know more. Olivia Baker takes you through her fascinating journey of struggling with an eating disorder after the death of her twin brother Matt. This movie will at times have you feeling emotional, angry, frustrated, relieved and happy all at once. It is by far one of the most realistic movies about eating disorders there is. I cannot fault the acting of the characters in Feed as their acting skillls were impeccable, i felt what they felt and as Olivia cried I cried. I would definitely recommend this movie to a friend

If you saw this movie's trailer and was like oh that's pure horror.. like many many of my friends.. don't judge it yet watch the movie it's very interesting and eye opening to so many issues and the best thing is the decent acting of Troian Bellisario who did a wonderful job, the story itself is amazing it holds a lot of realistic aspects and that's what makes it even better and the respect that the movie showed for anorexia is what made me fall in love with it although you witness a challenging heartbreaking experience you will have better understanding to these issues that a lot of people go through.
