A Real Pain

A mistake to describe this film as a comedy, more a study of the relationship between the two Jewish cousins. Fine acting by the two leads but as has been observed, other characters in the group could usefully have been fleshed out. A relative short film at 1 1/2 hours it maintains your interest and for a British viewer the open ending presents a refreshing change

Not very good. Is this what comedies are about these days? Depression, anxiety? Feelings?

Absolute waste of time with no story or comedy, extremely boring.

A dynamic duo that is ever so fun to watch, with Kieran Culkin absolutely stealing the spotlight. <i>A Real Pain</i> features an intimate and emotionally resonant direction from Jesse Eisenberg that just further showcases his talent both in front and behind the big screen.

It is quite funny in parts and touching in parts, a pretty good entry into the dramedy category. I also really appreciated that it was only 90 minutes long. I miss when movies were a much more digestible length. Kieran Culkin's performance is excellent, he deserved the Oscar. However, I found his character absolutely insufferable. I understand that is the whole point of the movie, but that doesn't make it any more bearable to watch.

Calm and almost as toned down as a documentary, but at times a surprisingly bittersweet and honest comedy. It's also an efficient family drama, which is given its pulse by the very strong performances, coming from supporting and main cast alike.

Competently made but quite downbeat, Kieran culkins character was flat out annoying. Reminds one of the Odd Couple. Too many f-bombs, completely unnecessary. The other characters had barely any screen time. The best part about this is the competent filmmaking by Jesse eisenberg.

one the best films to be released in recent memory. emotional from beginning to end in a quiet fashion. both Jessie Eisenberg and Kieran Culkin are so perfect in this film and is truly such a painfully enjoyable watch

Slow and confusing.

Not real at all. Not everything is about the Jewish people. The Warsaw uprising monument was not about the Jewish people. Before you make a movie about monuments and stuff in a country, you should research it beforehand.
