Review of Manic

Manic (2001)
7/10
Storyline OK, Acting Brilliant
2 March 2013
This film was really good, not for the storyline as that was quite average but because of the performances of everyone in it, main or side characters. Joseph Gordon-Levitt can definitely carry this movie. His performance as Lyle the teenager with the uncontrollable rage who doesn't believe he should be in a institute. Also It was good to see a role of Zooey Deschanel that didn't irritate me.

The only thing that slightly annoyed me in this was the camera work, some bit were good then in the next shot the camera was all over the place shaking. The director also used close ups a lot especially of the characters eyes. The quality of the film was good I liked the fact it was all recorded on a Sony PD150 digital camera.
