Casey Duggan It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Fatma Suarez The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Paul Creeden I will divulge that I am a gay man of 66. Any resemblance to Patrick Stewart's character ends there, but I got his character completely. I was also so please not to see another movie about an old gay man coming out at 70. This piece is very deep from my perspective. It is not a light glossing over of the core issues of aging, commitment, loss and imagined alternate realities. It is a hard look which is very touching without being overly melodramatic. Unlike Tobi, I don't cry easily, but I did at the end of this film.Matthew Lillard's performance as the emotionally stunted cop was dead on. I come from a cop family, so I can testify to that. And Carla Gugino played the well-meaning cop's wife equally well. The pace of revealing secrets and emotional baggage was very well done in the screenplay. While I had an inkling of the plot line's end, it did not matter as much as seeing how it would play out with these engaging performances.

Tony Heck "Absolutely I remember Gloria Renaldi" Tobi (Stewart) is a acclaimed dance instructor in New York City at Juilliard. He agrees to be interviewed at his apartment regarding the history of dance. When the two interviewers, Lisa (Gugino) and Mike (Lillard) show up things quickly turn tense when Mike mentions a name from Tobi's past. Secrets are revealed and lives are changed. This is a good movie, but it is not for everyone. First off, this is based off a Broadway play and the movie plays as one. For the most part there is one location and only 3 actors. This is just talking. The acting is amazing though and the movie is worth watching for that. Stewart seems like the perfect choice for this role and Gugino really plays well off of him. All that said this is again a movie for a select few. I liked it OK but wouldn't watch it again. Overall, if you like Broadway one act plays then I would check this out, if you aren't a fan of that type of entertainment then I would skip this one. I give it a B-.

Tina Tina Through a relatively common search - a son finding his unknown father and demanding answers, this movies shows the importance of tackling the deep reasons behind our most harmful behaviors.For the son, this movie shows the perspective of self doubt, denial of early pursuits of happiness such as having kids and becoming violent and disrespectful towards others.For the wife, this meeting is the last chance to save her marriage and throughout the journey she finds herself feeling trapped and finds answers that let her feel vulnerable and in touch with her emotions to the point that she admits to herself to her long lost goals and the realization of the things that matter to her the most. However,the most profound discovery is the one of the potential father, who finds out that there is more to life than solitude and the passion towards his profession. His liberation may be the biggest, because the solitude that he maintains, may also be his way of punishing himself for choosing dance over family. At the end his quest to join a simple party with his colleagues shows the most rewarding step towards self liberation.

Ryan Prince -Match (2015) movie review: -Match is a limited release film that focuses entirely on an older dance instructor, played by Sir Patrick Stewart, who agrees to be interview by a younger couple, only to abruptly discover that they may have a very different agenda. (Nothing sinister, it's a drama, not a thriller) -Match is an example of an alright film that would be better, but really can't be because of its limitations.-The story I thought was pretty good and deviant of cliché.-The pace was probably too quick. With the story, it felt like a longer TV episode.-The acting was good. Patrick Stewart did a good job, but other than learning how to dance, nothing outside of his skill set. Carla Gugino did well, but nothing beyond her usual roles. I was most impressed by Matthew Lillard, (live action Shaggy) who was really compelling and impressive.-The characters were deep and there was a lot to either like or dislike. However there is no character that you really feel good liking.-The music is forgettable. However playing one song twice worked in this.-The thing I either really liked or really did not like was that the entire film takes place in like a day, and it is right to the point. It is 90 minutes of the main story.-Match is rated-R for some language, although not heavy, and an R amount of sexual dialogue. By R standards it is not that bad though.-Match is well acted, compelling, and has a well written story, but lacks in being anything more because of its runtime and lack of anything but the story. I will say I enjoyed it, but it is only worth watching on Netflix/Redbox. 7/10.-Did you see Match? What did you think?
