This is the best movie I've seen in years.

-Kristoffe Norberg

I have to watch it again. I don't mean just to form an opinion. I mean I must watch it again. I didn't get it all. There are things I want to remember, permanently, that aren't in my head firmly enough.

-Stephen Stukel

Not only is the movie very much the best I've seen in a long time, but movies like this are EXACTLY what the world needs many more of.

I actually have not [seen a movie] in at least a year. The last one was Ep. 3 and not even that compares to what I saw tonight. And no, I'm not kidding in the least. That movie was supposed to redeem the series, they said. Supposed to knock you out of your seat, they said. I didn't not like it, but it just didn't live up, and that's when I pretty much became disinterested in movies. You can just feel the soul that went into this, and no Hollywood movie can ever match that. No way.

-Bradley Hutzley

I'm loving this flick. The story, characters and the score are all top notch. My hat's off to you Mr. Hunter for a jorb (sic) well done.

-Carl Moody

It was so f**king awesome that it makes Doom House look like Battlefield: Earth Got Mail.

-Micheal Molnar

It's definitely one of the best movie's of the past few pathetic movie years, and one of the best comedies I've ever seen. It trumps all other romantic comedies out there (this goes without saying), it kicks away any comedy of the past 5 years, maybe more…this is good stuff.

-Baird Hendrix

After reading [Ethan'] book and listening to this movie get pimped for months, I had some pretty high expectations. However, this managed to pretty much exceed all of them. The acting was great, the music was awesome, and the comedy was pure gold. I enjoyed every minute of it. For Catherine is probably one of the best movies I've seen in a good while.

***** = 5/5 stars

-Stephen R Gibson

Great film, intelligently written and a lot more deep than it looks like. I think the time, weather condition, and location on one of the last scenes [spoiler deleted] looks so f**king beautiful!! The lighting was spot on, it's own natural "near the end of the day" colour and feel, those raidrops, gently falling down, not too much, not too less, the old tree on the left side of the screen, big, naked and old, and the new-looking building gives that scene a look and feel I can't even describe in my own words. It just struck me that much.

I had certain expectations for this movie based on the things I'd seen and read prior to today. I was expecting, based on that first scene, a wordy, cynical, angsty, postmodern treatment of the romantic comedy genre. I certainly got all that, but I also got something I didn't fully expect - a movie with a heart a mile wide and a soul as deep. I really felt like Ethan really laid himself out there emotionally and the movie benefits greatly from the vulnerability he projects.

Since I'm not a professional movie critic, I don't have any fancy rating system. I'll just say it's fu**ing good and leave it at that.

UTOPIA!

-Micael V. Flores

Without a doubt this is the best independent film I have ever seen. More than that it's one of the best movies i've ever seen period.

Mr. Hunter is a force to be reckoned with as a filmmaker and I can not wait to see what he gives us next.

-Lindsay Beth

Ethan Hunter is well on his way to becoming one of the great storytellers of film's second century.

-Craig Theiman

Ethan Hunter’s feature debut is unequivicably, unbelievably, unrelentingly brilliant.

-Rachel O'Brian

Great movie.

Seriously. That movie was so artfully put together, I could barely believe it. For Catherine proves that a movie can be successful without spending millions of dollars on overrated special effects that quickly become a passing "meh." when commented upon by the movie viewing patrons of the world.

For Catherine had a very good, very true feeling about all of it. I, personally, can sympathize with Duo. I never shipped everything I own to myself, but I have, in fact, been in nearly the same situation.

I was more impressed with this film than I expected to be. I will definitely be pimping For Catherine even more to all my friends. I plan on having a showing for some of them in a couple weeks and I will then proceed to tell them "So, you liked the movie? Give [Ethan] your monies."

Thank you, Ethan, for making a refreshingly original, wordy, intelligent and, most of all, cynical movie about the effect that love, both existent and fleeting can have on a vulnerable person.

Thanks to Grant for making such good music and Thanks to everyone who contributed to the creation of one of the best movies ever. I do believe that this could qualify on my list of "best things I ever spent my monies on."

One of the best flicks I've seen in the last couple of years. I can't say enough about it. Simply awesome.

Now, here's how the story goes: Duo is in a relationship with Catherine. In fact, he has been for about two years. He's apparently been relatively happy with his life, until Catherine leaves in August for Oxford University. Duo is now alone, and doesn't know what to do. As a result, for one reason or another (which is actually explained quite well in the film itself), Duo decides to pack all of the belongings in his apartment, and Fed-Ex them all--to himself. That's right, from apartment 207, right back to apartment 207. Now, this is just where things begin. His roommate Travis, seeing that Duo is obviously having a hard time, attempts to get him out of this rut he appears to be stuck in. Thus begins Duo's journey of contemplation and self-discovery, with countless laughs and quirky moments all along the way.

I first want to talk about Duo. Duo is one of the most well-crafted and intriguing characters I've ever come across in any movie I've ever seen. His behavior in the beginning of the movie is odd, unexplainable, and sometimes unsettling. But, as the story goes on, we get to understand Duo and his motives, who he is, what he's hiding. As he slowly opens up to the viewer, we get more and more interested in what's going to happen to him next, what other side of him we're going to see. Travis is his friend/roommate/confidant/etc. Duo, for most of the movie, seems to live in a different world, which exists solely within the confines of his apartment. While other people visit from time to time, the only other person who's actually allowed into Duo's little world seems to be Travis. Sometimes, he seems to be the only other person that exists in Duo's mind. And he really is a good friend to him, cheering him up, always thinking of what's best for him, and even making the occasional inspired speech from time to time. In other words, the perfect supporting character.

Now, here's one of the reasons why I enjoyed this movie so much. I love movies with little action and lots of talking. I think it's mainly because those kinds of movies, especially comedies, are so hard to successfully execute. It takes so much skill in writing, and in the actors who put that hard work onto film. It takes more talent than one would think. And I can say with all confidence that For Catherine pulled this off with the kind of grace one can only be impressed by. The jokes are put in a satisfying balance between clever, traditional, and even a little physical. And other than the aforementioned few physical jokes, it's all done through conversation. And well, I might add.

Those of you who think Scary Movie 4 looks pretty funny need to see this instead. This is real humor.

Now, not only is For Catherine very funny. It also manages to be so true to real life and what goes through our heads on a regular basis, it's eerie. Duo's situation with Catherine is easily related to, no matter how much experience the viewer's had with the opposite sex. Each character is about as real as our friends and neighbors, but with enough quirks to be captivating and interesting enough to care about. It really all comes down to the brilliant writing, which I have to give props to Ethan for making an amazing script. I'd like a copy of the script to bind, preserve, and keep locked in a glass display box for all to see, I'm so impressed.

So we've got a captivating story, characters we care about, some of the most genuinely funny moments I've seen on film in a while, and to top it all off, a script to die for. What are you waiting for? Order the DVD from the 207 site, get some friends, and have one hell of a good time.
