The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

I watched this movie today and I was positively surprised. This movie was documentary packed, but still tasteful and fun to watch. I haven't seen the prequel and still enjoyed this movie a lot. If you want to see a good movie with comedy, this is a must watch!

At first I was a little ambivalent about this movie. While watching it (about an hour in), my husband said "Can we turn this off?" Parts of the movie were awkward and a little difficult to watch. However, there were several times I laughed out loud and really enjoyed the scenes. I especially loved the bachelorette party with the stripper. It was hilarious. I also really started to care about the characters; especially Dina. Dina is so open and honest and genuine that it is very easy to care about her. I thought that in real life we could be friends. The 911 call towards the end was very moving. Movies that mean the most to me are the ones I can't stop thinking about after they are over. I felt that way with this movie. I wanted to know MORE about Dina and was sorry the movie had ended. I wanted to keep up with her life and join in the conversations with her and Scott - ie talks about Hilary versus Trump and the election. Ha! I loved this movie. I love that it made me THINK About Aspberger's and autism, but it wasn't overly sympathetic - just genuine and real and thought provoking. I think people will either love or hate this movie, but that most will be moved and changed for the better.

We go to the movies to be changed. This film sits you in the life of a couple- with lots of things against them. They change your view. Worth seeing, and seeing again to think about. We all are not the same, but we all love, find ways to make it through life. The differences are more than most of us think about.

Dina was decent. The standout elements are the very restrictive cinematography, with everything shot on a tripod making the film resemble a slice-of-life drama award contender; and the incredibly entertaining characters, with everyone behaving in a nonchalant and quirky way, almost like characters in a Wes Anderson film. While this film has an abundance of charm, I didn't find it exceptional. One metric I use to judge a documentary's quality is determining whether I would still care if it were a work of complete fiction, and I don't see myself being as forgiving if that were the case. My main annoyance with this film is that the story begins to feel extremely repetitive after a while. We are constantly cycling through the process of Dina getting frustrated, her fiancé having trouble compensating, and the to making up before starting again. If not for how entertaining the people featured are, the film would have been a complete slog.
