    warm, witty, and wise

    Shoot me in the heart is a very deep, beautiful & touching story. The film handles the topic of mental illness appropriately- it shows you hardships but it also doesn't leave you feeling hopeless. A movie that portrays youth differently and realistically. The performances were amazing, the character development was perfectly executed, however the pacing I felt was slightly slow. A simple yet touching story.

    warm and schizophrenic

    This is short of genre mixing movie rather than full-on serious drama. Characters are well-thought out and realistic and actors portraying them fit their roles. Colors are bright. Story is easy to follow and doesnt go to deep yet there is overall warmth throughout it. Quite crazy movie with lot of illogical moments which obviously dont make sense yet they are perfectly understandable and relatable.
