Mark Johnson

A Real Pain is a beautifully crafted emotional journey cloaked in sharp, witty humor. I adored this film and cannot wait to see it again.

Eisenberg has succeeded with a film that feels deeply personal and intimate yet carries a universal accessibility for all.

A Real Pain taps into the common experience of connecting with the struggles of our past and trying to move through the aching of our present. Filmmaker Jesse Eisenberg has a distinctly humanist lens that reaches deep into our hearts.
