I just watched this movie, and I really liked it...alot. Sheesh. What's with all the bad reviews I am reading about this movie? Some of the things that were said didn't even sound like the same movie I just saw. Amazing. Well, I thought it was very charming, cute, and enjoyable.

Standing Still is a dialogue-driven character piece about way too many twentysomethings' feelings & questionings to cover up in ninety minutes, but it somehow manages to leave an impression. Indeed, despite the fact that the plot really does go nowhere and we've heard this kind o... read more

This movie was so bad. The cast has a lot of potential, but the script was so bad. The whole movie was so predictable. Kinda entertaining, but still very bad.

Good movie. There were a lot of characters, but they were all pretty likable. It coulda been better though. Lana shouldn't have gone lez. Her and pockets woulda been a good couple.

Wasn't bad. I found somethings very good about it. But I felt there were only a few characters that were interesting. Most were the same waste of hollywood cliche' that plags most of our movies. But over all wasn't that bad. Adam garcia was about the best actor in it. James was f... read more

Don't send a gift. Send your regrets. This is one wedding invitation that can clearly, safely be declined. Full Review
The aptly named Standing Still, about postcollegiate 20-somethings, has the dramatic momentum of a daisy-picking toddler. Full Review
Relentlessly shallow.
Standing Still wants to be an honest, earnest look at the difficulties of growing up and moving on, but it remains stuck in such a fantasy-laden milieu that the characters never feel particularly real... Full Review
Despite the best efforts of its energetic young ensemble, this soft focus romantic comedy cries out for a sharper edge.
Surfing the crowd in Altman-lite style, pic skims the surface entertainingly but goes limp in its stabs at seriousness. Full Review
...a progressively endearing effort that boasts several superb performances and a brisk, downright fun sensibility. Full Review
The Swiss-quartz comic timing of the film's ensemble cast makes its neurotic characters more compelling than your average cinematic slackers. Full Review
