Meh
Deliberatedan4 November 2021
It was okay but hard pressed to recommend. The writing was okay. The acting seemed strained. The story line was vanilla. Virtually no plot. Nominal character development. Good news? It was short.

Obviously her creepily codependent family wrote the reviews

It's hilarious the only work you can get is a movie you wrote about you failing to be an actress.

Nice indie film

Seemed low budget but I liked the writing and some of the performances. Fair warning: If you know anyone who went off to New York or LA you'll probably feel some things. Haha But I'm glad I watched it.

Best movie I've seen in a long time!
michaeljoherman23 June 2021
I saw this movie on Amazon Prime and I was blown away. Although most of the movie is set in Pittsburgh, the themes are universal and relatable to anyone who has moved away from their hometown, family, and past relationships in search of greener pastures. It's rare to see a movie with such authentic feeling characters, driven by strong writing and great acting. Without giving anything away, I was very impressed by decisions Max and Jesse made which felt true to life but rare to see portrayed in movies, especially from an empathetic point of view. As the title says, this is one of the best movies I've seen in a while and I'll definitely be rewatching it again soon. Also, the music is fantastic!

Charming, clever, feel-good flick
ihbaloch23 June 2021
Back for Good is a supremely charming must-see for Pittsburgh natives-much like the right of passage of reading The Mysteries of Pittsburgh. It has all the feel-good elements balanced with raw emotion of classic heartfelt comedies like Empire Records. This is my new "don't give up" movie for when I'm feeling down on my luck. It's deeply relatable for any 20-something trying to find their way. Especially because of the pandemic, I feel so many people had to uproot their lives or make sudden changes-everything seemed to fall apart. So if you're someone who experienced that, and need a cheerful reminder to keep going, this might be just the film for you.

Invites you to think about everything
lucascorias19 June 2021
Back for good is a movie about how to review our decitions and don't give up because of the contingencies. The movie invites you to think about love, personal relationships, ourselfs, family and the past becoming present.

Amazing movie and great performances.
