Big Things

About This Movie

So, 'Big Things' is this quirky little comedy from 2009 that revolves around Richard, a cycle courier who's drowning in the tedium of daily life. You can feel that struggle right from the start—he's got this big dream of making a film, 'A Distance Too Far,' which is kind of a reflection of his own aspirations and fears. The pacing is a bit loose, which gives it a laid-back vibe that fits the theme of chasing dreams. The performances are sincere, especially from Richard's friends who bring some real heart to their support, and the dialogue has this natural flow that feels genuine. It’s not about the big moments, but rather the small, relatable ones that hit home. It’s distinctive in how it blends humor with that underlying tension of wanting more out of life but feeling stuck.
