Genre: Feel-Good


The Peanut Butter Falcon, the name is enough for me to watch it again. To be honest I could write a whole page on this movie but I will try to stick to the general points just so, it should not ruin your experience of watching this movie.


First of all, just to be clear I highly recommend this movie to everyone. Yes, there are certain section of viewers who may not like this movie for various reasons but it does leave you with a happy heart by the end of it.


A minor warning for the viewers who do not like slow-paced movies, this could irritate you initially.


Now, what should I say about the cast, the acting in this movie speaks for itself, also Dakota Johnson (hands-down the most beautiful actress I ever seen). The movie length is short and screenplay to the point, and that’s what saddened me when I was heading towards the end of the movie.

As I mentioned earlier, there are few reasons why this movie is not a mainstream movie as other feel-good movies, one of them is the cast of the movie, I agree I said the acting is perfect but the story is not about them, the mainstream cast is a supporting characters in this movie which is a backdrop to the movie when you see it from afar but also the sweetest aspect when you actually watch the film, another reason is, it is a low budget film, so you won’t see a lot of beautiful backgrounds, usual American culture or fancy clothes like in “The Intern” here, and the biggest reason is the pace of the movie, it starts really slowly, initial 10 -15 mins requires your patience to set a tone for an upcoming wonder.


Finally, this happens be my favorite section in the blog where I share with you guys about my experience when I watched it. Believe me, the initial 15 mins of slow pace in this movie is completely worth it, once you get into the movie’s main plot, it will suck you in and you won’t want to leave it till the very end and some of you even after that. The story, acting, screenplay and characters empowers you in many ways. The direction of the movie falls successful in make you see all facets of protagonist’
