Now straight off the bat, I'll admit I'm not the usual target audience for this kind of thing (and hence didn't make it the whole way through) but I just don't see why this was made other than to fill out the Netflix catalogue. The characters aren't really likeable, the story doesn't really seem worth telling, and the script is eerily familiar to student films. It's definitely edgy, but that's about it; edgy for edgy's sake. If that's enough for you then you might really like it, but otherwise I'd recommend being wary of it.

Truly enjoyable hidden gem on Netflix. An unassuming lead who represents everyone of us in a way that no Hollywood regulars ever could, in a great performance. Elijah Wood in a messed up artsy role. Unique, DARK but often hilarious film. A weirdly entertaining and familiar tale. Entertaining from beginning to end, with no breaks, in my opinion. Excellent film that performs way beyond the statistics!

Ruth (Melanie Lynskey) is a single woman without family. She's tired of the world being such a jerk. Her home is burgled. Police Detective William Bendix is unhelpful. She confronts Tony (Elijah Wood) for his dog pooping on her lawn. She starts investigating on her own. When her stolen computer alerts her of its location, she decides to go after it with Tony's help. It eventually leads to lowlife criminals Christian Rumack, his friend Marshall, and his girlfriend Dez. This is a quirky dark comedy with moments of hilarity. Lynskey is good at playing this tired frustrated character. Wood adds some eccentric comedic touches. It's a slow but compelling start. It takes on a rambling pace until the violence starts piling on. Overall, there are a few fun moments, an eccentric Elijah Wood, and an uneven pacing which add up to an intriguing viewing.

The fact that her revenge was only gonna be to be able to talk to the perpetrator is so freaking cool. I loved it. It's exactly what I think to do when I hear horrible things that happen, I always wish I could just talk to people and ask why they did such things, to find some reason. Even though this concept might be common in real life, meaning you questioning yourself why everyone is asshole, it's not something usually portrayed in movies, in movies people take horrible revenge against each other, look at 7 psychopaths, similar genre, horrible revenge. I loved her, I loved Elijah and the whole cast actually. The step mother was great and the father, wow great voice. I loved the quirkiness of it all and the fact that even at the end she's still depressed, she's still confused and hasn't understood a bunch of stuff about her surroundings, compared to her sister that seems to get it all. "you have all the time of the world" the sister says and she answers "but I don't know what it means" gosh. that's exactly how I feel. The funniest part is when she can't stop throwing up. I was crying of laughter, she's so sweet. This film has some gore stuff going on but it's delivered in a way that it's not scary. Trust me, I get shocked easily, this was almost funny. I enjoyed it very much. Looking forward to something else of this kind soon. Indie movies are getting so good damn I am so happy to see this.

Macon Blair's feature film debut is a wicked blend of violence & hilarity that balances the elements of crime & comedy with flair, offers an interesting insight into the norms of lower-class American society, and is wonderfully uplifted by quirky inputs from its cast to succeed as an indie that's as amusing as it is rueful. I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore tells the story of a lonely woman who's sick of people being indecent all around her and is pushed to the limit when her home gets robbed. Enlisting the help of a neighbour, the two decide to go after the ones who burglarized her house but soon find themselves out of their depths. Written & directed by Macon Blair in what's his directional debut, the film exhibits a shade or two of Jeremy Saulnier's thrillers when it comes to depicting violence but most of it is pierced by well- dosed humour that serves as a counterpoint. The plot takes a while to get going but once it gains the momentum, it is expertly maintained till the end. Featuring an idiosyncratic list of characters whose arcs are embedded with serviceable depths, the first act attempts to establish our protagonist's lonely state & morals before bringing more people into the play. Melanie Lynskey plays her leading part brilliantly and supporting her throughout is Elijah Wood who delivers a downright hilarious performance as her neighbour. On an overall scale, I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore is a confidently crafted beginning of Macon Blair's directional career and is a morality play that's quite timely but there was still room for improvement, for few segments are drawn out, narrative flow is inconsistent at times, and it settles for a safe conclusion. Nevertheless, for a debut feature, it is as good a start as any. Worth a shot.

According to Slipknot, people = s**t, and that's the conclusion despondant nursing assistant Ruth (Melanie Lynskey) arrives at after witnessing those around her acting like assholes on a daily basis. When her home is burgled, and the police prove less than helpful, Ruth decides enough is enough, and, with help from her neighbour Tony (Elijah Wood), tries to track down those responsible to let them know just how despicable they are. A smart black comedy featuring standout performances from Lynskey and Wood, I Don't Feel at Home in This World Anymore is the directorial debut of actor Macon Blair, which makes the movie an all the more impressive achievement. Blair handles the action like a seasoned pro, leading his likeable protagonists into unpredictable situations that go from bad to worse, culminating in a brilliantly orchestrated orgy of violence. What starts out as a quirky drama winds up in seriously dark territory that is scarily brutal, absurdly amusing and hugely entertaining. Highly recommended. 8/10.
