Powerful

Fantastic!

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Its a very good drama and pretty hard to hold your tears. Great acting and a nice story.Its about a 16 year old girl named Precious living a pretty tough life in Harlem.

Dude, this is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. I laughed my wiener off in the theater, when she got that ashtray in the head and fell over like a sack of potatoes. And that retarded inbreed child named MONGO - who comes up with that stuff XD. And the way she walks around looking like a giant bloated puffer fish got me every time. Hahahaha I almost pee myself just thinking about it. I give the sex scene in the beginning a nine out of eleven, as it got me a little hard but not quite enough to jerk off to. Oh yeah, and then there was the moment when she ate those chicken wings. I almost puked in mouth, it was so discussing, and then I almost choked in my own puke cause I was laughing so hard. And the way the the black mother was talking about welfare all the time was pretty realistic. Anyways I can't quite fill the ten line so I gonna list out the best performances in the movie: The mother, a jerk who was quite believable, also she has quite an arm the way she tosses stuff after that fat kid. The black thugs, the ones who pushed the fat is over the street. They looked like someone you didn't want to mess with. That white kid in the dream, probably actor of the year as he was able to kiss that fat kid, without questioning his entire acting career and not blow his brains out afterwards.

I gave up on this movie. It just makes you angry! Such a complicated story, just like normal life which is very boring to watch as entertainment. I understand the meaning of the movie, of course, and it is a serious subject that many people go through, unfortunately. However, for me at least, seeing a film with such a disastrous actress (Gabourey) is just not in my taste. I mean, she might be good at what she does on screen, but the kind of person she is privately (and knowing this) makes it difficult to enjoy her movies. Why do I think so? Because she advocates beauty and acceptance although she looks the way she does because she abuses herself. Advocating for fat acceptance is really dangerous, because of the deadly diseases connected with obesity. It's just as dangerous as advocating for anorexia or any other eating disorder. Health should be the norm. Secondly, she wears dead animal skin (a.k.a. fur) which is not something I want to support by promoting her movies.

This is a film that takes the viewer on a difficult journey and confronts issues around domestic violence, child abuse and poverty. 'Precious' tells the story of a young woman's struggle with life and an attempt to better it for herself and her children. The film is produced brilliantly, with the viewer feeling a huge amount of empathy and anguish for the main character 'Precious'. Many of the issues included in the film are difficult ones to do justice, but 'Precious' does it brilliantly. Some moments in the film are exceptionally powerful, with a clear storyline keeping a good pace throughout. Many of the best moments in this film are ones that involve beautifully crafted conversations between characters. Overall this film is highly recommended.
