Meet Lawrence (Isaiah Lehtinen) - he’s self-centered, pretentious, sexist, and terrible to the people around him. You hate him pretty much every second he’s on screen, and that’s a testament to the performance of Lehtinen. This very Canadian indie is a refreshing take on the coming-of-age story, told through an unabashedly unlikable protagonist. There’s a great mix of humour and drama, along with some solid supporting performances, particularly by Romina D'Ugo as the Sequels Video manager. I Like Movies is a welcome feature debut from director Chandler Levack, and it will be interesting to see where she goes from here.
