It's Kind of a Funny Story is a rather unassuming film that meanders around the theme of the silent (and not so silent) judgements we encounter and deal out. I would describe the film as less of a coming-of-age tale and more a teen romance story. Mandvi and Davis were underused, Galifianakis delivers a strong performance, and I'm on the fence with Gilchrist. The film is mild entertainment but not much more profound that that, too often resorting to clichéd dialogue.

It's kind of difficult to not see through the feel-good bullshit knowing the film's author, Ned Vizzini, offed himself a few years after this autobiographical film was released. It's also difficult to look past the fact that he directly lifted much of his material from psych-ward author, Jim Knipfel. It's not a terrible film. I enjoy these coming-of-age dark comedies about suicidal teens more than most, but this one may be just a bit too saccharine and dishonest, particularly in its resolution.

Fun fact: "fleck" and "boden" mean "stain" and "floor" in german. Which describes this quite accurately. Typical life-affirmation crap masquerading as something of value and depth. A kid who initially plotted to off himself checks into a mental hospital, where he meets the girl of his dreams, realizes his true calling and helps the long term inmates solve their problems. Yup, that's how we roll at the psych ward. Woopdeefuckingdoo.
