3. I enjoyed this. But maybe that's the place I'm in now, meds working, enjoying things.

At other places in my life (especially my dark paranoid places) maybe I'd find this movie disturbing, or feel like it was making fun of me.

Mental illness doesn't seem like it should be anything to laugh at, yet this movie has a sweet heart, and the characters encounter kind people along the way.

I've had my own misadventurers arising from mental health issues and sometimes I can tell funny stories about them. I spent some time in a locked psych ward just last year and I take powerful psych meds which keep me somewhat functional in this society. And, as in this movie, I've been fortunate to encounter many kind people.
