Two Ways Home

Two Ways Home

Started a little slow but by mid-way i was glued to the screen and really drawn in. A really well orchestrated film with not too much to complain about. 8 stars easily.

I unexpectedly found the trailer on YT and I then decided to rent it and I'm so glad I did. The subject matter is touchy and the actress that plays Kathy did an incredible enjoy portraying issues with mental illness. The editing is crisp, the score was fitting as is the editing. I'm giving this a 9.

It's on a indie budget but the story is big and that's all that matters. Great acting from everyone involved including the children. I did get emotional in the end so yes this is a bit of a tear jerker but totally worth.

Two Ways Home" is a low-key indie drama about a family history, going through personal failures, mental health and strong redemption. It is beautifully shot, as well as empathetically-acted and reasonably well-written. Furthermore it benefits from that essential ingredient that makes or breaks many a low-budget independent film - a sense of place. It's a rural Iowa story from start to finish but it works.

Mom is outta prison and also is now diagnosed with bipolar disorder. The movie follows her attempt to get back into her daughter and ex's lives and claim a spot in her new life.

This movie speaks to everyone on some level. It's treatment of mental illness is delicate yet poignant at the same time. Beautiful plot that is masterfully and richly developed. Thoroughly enjoyed watching this film and would highly recommend it!

What a film! Lots of emotions mixed in with drama and dialogue. This isn't a big budget film but still at a high quality because of the plot and acting. We need more films like this. Heartfelt flick, i'd watch it again.

For years I've dealt with my daughter's bi-polar condition. For years she had refused to take medication, even tho I've begged her to. She lost everything, lost custody of her 3 children, and even one to suicide, but that's still not the end of her rope. Even tho her daughters are safely out of her clutches I'm preparing for the day she tries to take them down with her. She is an evil human being that got her disorder from her dad but she won't take responsibility for her actions. Maybe she will see this movie someday and it will somehow get thru to her. All I can do is pray she opens her eyes and ears to the truth, that a good life is def possible.

Such a deep and entertaining film. Lots of drama that felt real and the production was top notch. There were plenty of plot twists and some of them did surprise me. I'm usually able to guess what happens next but the end really had me. I highly recommend this, well done.
