FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Francene Odetta It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

leethomas-11621 I loved the performances but Wallace doesn't come across as someone I could spend 2 hours with never alone accompany on a world tour! (viewed 9/16)

Brodie Burns I hadn't read Infinite Jest, nor had I heard of either of these two people before, but something about this movie pulled me to rent it from my local Redbox. What I gathered was that this movie was a movie about dialogue, about conversation, and that it had a sense of realness to it. It seemed genuine, it seemed human, and it seemed to simply be a movie that consists of two guys talking about life. I'm so glad it was what I thought it would be.This movie speaks about loneliness, fame, depression, social strategies, perceptions, insecurities, and many other things that are ripe for honest conversation. It reminds me of great conversations that I've had with some of my friends. I went into a movie theater, sat down alone, and watched a movie that felt about as natural as if I were lying on a bed next to a friend discussing the intricacies of life. As a person who often feels great loneliness this movie really connected with me, but at the same time it made me feel like I was hanging out with these dudes and not so alone at all. Even though Lipsky was almost always recording their conversations, it still felt so natural. Especially those elusive moments where he wasn't. Those moments where it didn't feel like an interview in the slightest, it just felt like two people really opening up to each other.I found myself laughing several times during this movie, from the "oh, you're paying?" *grabs more goodies from the convenience store* moment to their escort around town almost condescendingly questioning his choice of outfit to a radio interview to which he replies just as I would. The humor was great and added another strong element to the formula that makes this movie so good.This movie to me is the perfect movie to watch by yourself. Put away your phone, put away what it is to be seen by anyone else, and just immerse yourself in it. Feel the humanity that is movie is made of. Be in the room with David and David. I'm really not a big reader, but this movie kind of makes me want to read Infinite Jest.The acting and cinematography were notably fantastic.This is a movie about humanity, this is a movie about loneliness. This movie is a lot of things, but at it's core it's a movie of humanity, of conversation between two people about their lives in the world we live in. Sit down, have a giant diet Rite and have a conversation with this movie. It's a conversation that is one of the best I've ever had.

Reno Rangan This is an unexpected biographical drama. I don't know who are those two guys, I mean not the actors, but the real life characters. I never read their books or heard their names, though the film sounded great, so I decided to watch it. The entire film was an interview between a newly famed writer and a journalist who dreaming to become like him one day. So basically the young journalist desperately makes himself an opportunity to meet the writer and they take a road trip, discussing various topics.It's hard to say who was best, both Jesse Eisenberg and Jason Segel were excellent. I think it was the best casting, they will be the reason if you want to watch it, not the story. Yep, the story was simple, just talking life, present and future of humankind, other celebrities and finally differences between them. That's the part I loved. I mean famed people or genius, whoever they're, they are just like us when it comes to interacting with others. They argue too, it's not like the worst thing to happen, but a normal thing as a human being. Just like animals locking their horns over land or females and sometimes for a no reason.It was directed by 'The Spectacular Now' filmmaker, based on the bestselling memoir by David Lipsky, the character that played by Jesse Eisenberg. It takes place in the late 90s, but present in the film as a recall after a certain event. If you like 'Before Sunrise' kind of films, you will enjoy it, but if you hate slow pace narration, then you should better skip than giving a bad review and rating badly to wreck it up.7/10

Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a music magazine journalist, who interviewed a brilliant author for a few days. Despite not knowing each other before hand, they poured their hearts out to each other.I guess I have been traumatised by the other recent film about interviewing a celebrity. Fortunately, "The End of the Tour" is nothing like "Life". "The End of the Tour" shows David Wallace in an authentic relationship with the other David. They treat others like equal and they enjoy each other's company. Their interaction appears genuine and realistic. He's so kind to even offer the journalist stay in his home. I do feel that David Wallace opened himself up to the point of being vulnerable. This relatively transient but authentic encounter is untrained by the journalist's purpose of the visit, which is an interview. It looks more like two people instantly getting along and become great friends. I enjoyed watching it.
