  • Realistic, Moving Drama

    Speed of Life is a drama about a young man who's mother has died and who now has the unenviable task of caring for his father, a once brilliant professor who is now crippled by the onset of Alzheimers Disease and cannot perform any functions such as bathing, eating, or using the restroom on his own. They live in a loft in a drug-ridden borough of NYC. The film follows his attempts to care for his father, earn money, and go to school while meeting a young artist who also happens to be a drug addict. Excellent film, from writing, acting, script, sets, camera work, etc. Realistic, moving. Scott Caan shows he has range beyond playing the stereotypical criminal and Mia Kirschner in a small but pivotal role excels as usual. The actor portraying the invalid father was phenomenal. A drama that is both depressing and uplifting, worth seeing for avid film watchers.

    What an incredible movie, intense and touching. The storyline is incredible, and the pace with which it's told is simply perfect. The cinematography by Matthew Libatique and the music by Ryeland Allison fit perfectly and complement one another. I found myself hooked from the very first minute and stayed hooked till the very last. The cast is incredible; Leo Burmester is absolutely incredible, very intense and heart-touching. But the one I've enjoyed most in this movie is Scott Caan. I am a huge fan of his, but I don't think I've ever seen him better than here. He's really carrying the whole story by himself, an absolutely believable and realistic performance. His pain and brokenness translate to the viewer, they are absolutely palpable. Definitely a must-see, a true gem of movie making

    When the title menu came up, there was no special feature. This was an indication to me that the movie would suck. What a shock I was in for. The film is just what the summary is. I could maybe add one more line for the ending. It is a deeply emotionally mature and sensitive film that blends eloquent film-making with a writer's sensitive rhythm to words and silences, all perfectly executed with the most awesome performances from the actors, director, and film crew. My wife started sobbing as she talked about it. She's artsy and never sobs over films. It was THAT moving.

    Not only do I love Scott Caan, and the way he portrayed his character (Drew)leaves the viewer in awe. His performance was absolutely heart-wrenching. His scenes with his dad (Leo Burmester) were flawless, and the scenes where he was not with Burmester, but was contemplating his life and thinking about his dad were spellbinding. I liked the feel of the film. It seemed cold; it make the fact that the character seemed trapped even more realistic. From the beginning, when the viewer sees that the 'warehouse loft' was where Drew and his father made their residence gives away the fact that Drew truly cares for his father (in that he'd give anything for his father's happiness). What a heartwarming tale.

    This movie was so beautiful and so moving, I cried while watching it. I was impressed by the visual style and completely unaware of the acting - that's how caught up I was. I prefer the music on the original film as Saturn before it was redone as Speed of Life. One of my very favorite movies.
