Shot like a home movie and just as interesting you would be better off doing just about anything than watching this pointless mess. Masturbate or rob a store. Literally ANYTHING. Every conflict in this film is presented with so little context that it makes it impossible to care about and there is no real narratite through line, just a collection of scenes that seem to be picked at random at times. I would say more but there is nothing to talk about. I want my 83 minutes back.

It is not because I wanted to stop after 30 minutes, but after 30 minutes of what I guess was the director's way have giving the audience a feel for what Krisha was going through I couldn't continue. So I guess mission accomplished. The movie did look interesting and from what I did see had some humor. So my recommendation is to give the movie a try as others have seemed to be able to ignore that which I could not. Possibly because they too suffer from the same issues as the main character. If as some point I may try and give the movie another chance, at that time I may change my rating, but as of now it is hard to give this movie anything more then 4 stars.

First time IMDB reviewer here but felt compelled to write in contrast to some of the less favourable user reviews. Firstly, this was shot in 9 days. 9 days! I'm not sure if you've ever been anywhere near a film set, but to shoot something in 9 days is an unbelievable achievement. To shoot something this good? Impossible. Second, some people have struggled with the stylised nature of this film and others seem to object to its content. Well, film is an art form and film doesn't always have to be some hemogenized, easily digestible, happy-ever-after product. The storytelling in Krisha can be bumpy but at times exquisite. As someone who has grown up around addiction the handling of this sensitive subject made me feel heard and seen. What is art if not to shine a light on what makes us human? Warts and all. Lastly, hats off to Shults, his cast and crew. This film is filled with brave work. Taking risks both filmically and emotionally. It is no small feat to make a film so raw. The strength of this film lies in its rough corners and uncomfortable moments. When watching don't fight against those rough edges, embrace them and allow the film to take you into the mind of Krisha. Rarely will you experience a narrative so uniquely inside one persons perspective. Superb filmmaking.

I'm a struggling filmmaker myself in a third world country, that's why I didn't want to keep looking for inspiration in films with budgets I'd probably never get myself. I chose to watch Krisha because I wanted to see how can a low budget movie get so many praise and oh lord, now I understand. It turns out all you need is a crap load of talent. Trey builds such a fresh and unique storytelling for what we can say is a story told too many times. I loved it so much I just had to re watch it again right away... 3 times in a row! I love the details of the characters, the tricky staging and movement. If you've worked with amateur actors, you should be very impressed with the scene where Krisha comes downstairs to find a really loud, crowded and messy living room. Trey gives a reason to the movements and actions every character makes, these details are telling the backstory. It's pretty smart to compare the scene where Chase and Logan are arm wrestling with the building tension and subtle "wrestling" in the conversation between Krisha and Doyle. It's not constructed in an obvious parallel meaning, so that was nice. This movie has a lot of layers you'd probably won't see at first. The first person who welcomes Krisha is Alex, the only one who doesn't know her in the family. He's the one who opens the door for her, not the other members of the family. They are far and unaware she's there. Then we see Robyn, who is behind the dog gates, they hug through this gates but then Robyn breaks them so she can be with her sister. She's letting her guard down and breaking the walls between them. Only after she does this, we see the other family members come to her and receive her as if nothing ever happened. When Trey comes, his first line is "What happened to the gates?". A truly smart question to make in a situation like this one. What happened to the emotional walls? He means. Another clever meaning for the dog gates separating and protecting the dining room, supposedly from the dogs. But then we find out the wine is hiding in this room. Might these dog gates also be there to avoid Krisha from entering that room? I could go on and on about the wonderful details I've been finding, but I can't keep writing because I feel the need to watch this movie for the 5th time.

I really wanted to like this film. I commend the filmmakers in trying to make a film that is different and relatable. The opening scene is inexplicably haunting. It is the sound of death and the face of a woman with pain and heartbreak and loss seared in her face, looking ready for death. And then the film starts and it is about Krisha coming to visit for Thanksgiving dinner. The whole film is based on that 1 or 2 days. I give the film 10/10 for atmosphere. It really builds up an expectation of something that will happen. But nothing really happens. I mean sure, it would be interesting for the family if this was a real-life event. But for a outside viewer, we need more darker secrets and twists. Otherwise it just seems like a Thanksgiving dinner in a slightly more dysfunctional family than most. But meh.. it's hardly breathtaking. So well done filmmakers for starting the film well and giving a good atmosphere. And the cast are fantastic. But this film needs a remake with a different middle and ending and it could then be something really amazing.

As an aspiring filmmaker, I cannot help but feel as if I relate to the debut filmmaker Trey Edward Shults. This film is heavily stylized and intense, and I feel that if I were able to make my own low budget film it would turn out to be something like this. The film focuses on extreme emotions, making the audience feel somewhat warm and humored at first, but completely crushed by the final shot. The film is overall extremely ambitious in its approach, due to Shults' use of long takes, black humor, and an atmosphere that contains both heavy realism and surrealism. "Krisha", one of the finest and funniest films to come out last year, is not only a beautifully made film but also the most earth shatteringly heartbreaking portrait of addiction since "Requiem for a Dream". It takes place during Thanksgiving as a family prepares for the holiday. One somewhat special member of the family has visited this year, Krisha, an old woman who has been absent of their presence for 10 years. This brilliant, harrowing shocker combines elements of humor and horror to craft a modern miracle. Unfortunately, this masterpiece is quite obscure and underrated-but I must urge anyone stumbling across my review to check it out immediately! It is a jaw droppingly fantastic work of art.

"Krisha" brings the story of the title character. As the movie opens, we see Krishna, a woman in her 60s, arriving with her suitcase at a house in suburban Texas. Turns out to be her sister Robyn's house, and the entire family is gathering for Thanksgiving, and also to celebrate the birth of a baby to Robyn's daughter. It is clear that this is Krisha's first time seeing most of them in a long time, and that during that absence she deal with personal issues. At this point we're maybe 10 minutes into the movie, but to tell you more would spoil your viewing experience, you'll just have to see for yourself how it all plays out. Couple of comments: this movie is a labor of love for Trey Edward Shults, who directed, wrote, edited and stars in the movie. Not to mention that this movie was made on less than a shoestring (primary funding came from a small Kickstarter campaign). In the first half of the movie, we witness how this family is enjoying their time together, even if it is straining for Krisha. But the second half of the movie truly delivers. One key scene after another unfolds, and will leave you nailed to your seat. There are a number of key performances, none more so than Krisha Faichild in the title role (most other characters also use their real life names in the movie). Check out the scene where she is reunited with her mentally frail mother, who looks to be in her 90s. Just wow. Robyn Fairchild as Krisha's sister is equally excellent. There is an interesting score courtesy of (for me unknown) Brian McOmber. This movie made quite a splash at the 2015 Sundance Film Festival. No idea why it's taken over a year for this to finally get a release in theaters, but better late than not. "Krisha" opened this weekend at my local art-house theater here in Cincinnati, and I couldn't wait to see it. The early evening screening where I saw this at was attended okay but not great. That is a darn shame. This is a top notch if heavy duty family drama which deserves a larger audience. If you have a chance to see this, be it in the theater, on VOD or eventually on DVD/Blu-ray, by all means do not miss it! "Krisha" is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Garbage in the purest sense of the word. Watching this tremendously dysfunctional garbage would be like watching someone being hanged. WHY, in Gods name, would anyone want to watch this? A movie should bring you happiness, fear, enlightenment, excitement, etc. etc. Watching this movie just makes you want to take a hot shower so you can just get if off of you. I have NO Idea how anyone could watch this ugliness and rate it higher than a 3...at most. To each his own, I guess, but take my word for it and skip this mess. It's not worth one minute of your time.
