Northwood Pie

source: Northwood Pie

Give me a comedy that makes me feel right at home with its characters and I'm in. I felt throughout like I'd met them all somewhere before in my own crazy burb past. Credit goes to Northwood's terrific dialogue, the writer who wrote it and the lively cast who delivered it. Don't miss this well-paced coming of age indie comedy. Order a pie and enjoy.

This movie is very fun and enjoyable, had me laughing the whole way through.

Wonderful snapshot into the life of the youth working at a pizza shop. This is a gem of a film. Stoners, slackers and pizza - what's not to love. Take a trip down memory lane and the easy going, carefree life of being young and dumb. Funny and enjoyable. I recommend.

I found myself smiling from ear to ear watching Jay Salahi's "Northwood Pie". There's a casualness and low-key jadedness that burns through the pie-slinging millennials of the Northwood Pizza shop. Characters act and talk like real people, and more than 99% of the recent teen comedies I've seen, actually sound like a real group of friends. One may be forgiven for not knowing where the plot is going, as Salahi enjoys meandering around with his characters but that's also part of its shaggy charm. Todd Knaak makes a great protagonist as Crispin, who enters the circle of California stoners and slackers, making his mark with his own quirky off-kilter energy. Hang-outs and smoke sessions lead to deeper truths about these character's inner lives, without ever feeling forced or saccharine. In this regard, Salahi has been successful, making a naturalistic and very funny snapshot of millennial life. Highly recommend!

I love comedies and movies that just make you feel good. Northwood Pie is one of those movies that is just fun, that remind us all of those relatable and awkward moments in life. This coming of age comedy is great if you ever wondered how awkward, misunderstood and funny finding yourself and what you want can be.

I love small indie comedies. This hit the mark. My favorite movie is Clerks and this felt like clerks. I love the setting and it made me hunger for pizza so I order one. The characters felt fleshed and out and really. The lead actress was really good. Northwood really standouts by having strong writing and direction.

Jay Salahi's "Northwood Pie" is a little indie gem with quirky characters and funny situations. Todd Rank and Annika Foster deliver endearing performances. Love the low-key no future vibe.

If you think back to your high school days what was it like? Was it like this?

Really enjoyed this little coming of age drama. You can tell it's personal and that makes all the difference. Great casting and performances - the dialogue / banter flowed and felt really authentic. It felt like it was living the world of Adventureland which I really loved. Easy Recommend. A+
