Never Rarely Sometimes Always

Heartbreaking, amazing actors, unfortunately realistic. Some surprise in terms of expectations which is always welcome : not by the number movie.

This is a very good movie about a very serious matter. But as a side note I'd really like to know why they'd be carrying around such a big suitcase if they never got to change their clothes.

Difficult subject, convincingly played out - just very really well dealt with

Well done. A quality telling of a challenging, sad story. It is interesting how much is conveyed with so little dialogue and scenes filled with lots of silence.

very powerful and a must-watch now that women are losing reproductive rights.

All ages admitted, due to comedy and original characters (and lyrics); LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The movie's title is a very innovative one, I knew this movie was going to be about abortion but that title didn't make sense to me until the middle of the movie and the scene was really raw and powerful. These are the kind of movies only a woman could make, its tough for a man to understand the bond between two women, the oppression they face from a patriarchal society and the ugly entitlement men feel over their bodies. Eliza Hitman wasn't interested to preach to the audience, she wisely ignores it and rather chooses to hit the raw nerves of anti-choice men and misogynists. Autumn (Sidney Flanigan) is shamed at the start of the film, discouraged to abort her one child, her own state doesn't allow her to make her own decisions on her body, her employer doesn't allow her to take a break when she is unwell, helplessly watches her cousin get preyed by predatory men and also faces cash shortage but in-spite of all this she bravely aborts her fetus with the help of her cousin Skylar (Talia Ryder). Though Autumn is the protagonist of the film, we all would relate more so with Skylar. She sticks by her cousin no matter what and even undergoes great sacrifices to help her. This movie is a must watch by all and a great reflection of a male dominated society.

Emotionant, dur, laconic

"Please respond: 'Never' ... 'Rarely' ... 'Somet..." I KNOW WHAT THE OPTIONS ARE, KELLY. YOU'VE SAID WHAT THE OPTIONS ARE. Honestly the most surprising thing about Never Rarely Sometimes Always is that we HAVEN'T seen something like it before - the restrained take on an unwanted teenage pregnancy in America. Most films dealing with subject can't resist tossing in some sort of rabid conservative element slinging slurs and threatening to burn down a Planned Parenthood clinic; in Eliza Hittman's take on the material, the closest that we get is a tottering, grandmotherly type carefully but doggedly assuring Autumn (Sidney Flanigan) about the joys of motherhood before tossing some dated propaganda onto the VCR, and the point is that such efforts are just as difficult to contend with and twice as confusing. The film is all about suffering in silence, as a character is forced to deal with a major medical and personal crisis without reaching out directly to anyone in particular because of the stigma associated with it. Keeping much of the character development and several key moments nonverbal, Hittman still remains in complete control of the emotional state of her characters, reeling them back in when the conversations and outbursts lean a bit too obvious. A very well done take on the subject matter, with an eye for attention to detail, particularly in minor characters. (3.5/5)

Overrated uninspired Heavy Drama that's more depressing then inspiring and its premise has stereotype and Clichés and the film has the modern day independent Cinema which has not improved much by my opinion this film is a big miss
