Only makes you feel bad and sad for the most part, but in a way that maybe inspires you to do better or appreciate life more.

It is an absolutely fantastic movie. It just happens to be implemented using stick figure animation. It touches on the universal issues of the human condition. It is as if Don Hertzfeldt is just a conduit for the universe observing itself.

[SPOILER ALERT: This review contains spoilers.]

Nihilism + crappy animation + discordant noises + choppy narration. Closest to "demonic" of what I've yet seen, and I've seen a lot.

While watching this movie I was fully absorbed by the movie, Humour the personality the tragedy all of it hit me in my brain and I could not Stop watching it I am going to sit on my bed many nice wondering and thinking about this movie and I would not wanted any other way

This movie... It really gets how to surprise anyone due to it's visual simplicity. It such a big, deep, unique movie; so captivating how a simple (at first) character called Bill could get anyone on guard on how relatable yet profound he is, the narrative is a constant mind-blowing experience that drives you further into the movie and makes you feel so many things, even cry. It can be even a life-changing experience for some people.

Quirky, imaginative, and unforgettable. This is an odd, experimental film that will pull on your heartstrings. It's stunningly beautiful in its simplicity. Its an unexpected font of ponderous wisdom that will stick with you for years to come.

I'm genuinely glad so many people adore this film and that it had such a huge effect on them. Personally it didn't affect me much, but I'm happy it exists and the 3rd chapter, I did like a lot. Nevertheless, If I had to sum up my honest thoughts on It's Such a Beautiful Day, it would be as follows: A philosophy grad's "quirky" ponderings on life, death, deterioration, existential dread, memory, mental health, hereditary disorders and cancer* (brain tumor) etc etc, very neatly structured into a nice relatable "meaning-of-life" narrative with sort of annoying breathy narration and wonderful animation.

Definitely an acquired taste, but easily one of the most poignant and masterfully done movies I've ever seen. 10/10 work of art

I never thought a movie with stick figures could make me cry. One of the most profound and intriguing movies I have ever watched. Beautiful film. 10/10.

Truly a masterpiece. It follows the life of a man who is diagnosed with some sort of disease that has some crazy effects on **** just HAVE to watch ti to know what I'm trying to say.

I thought it was personally brilliant; an film that points out the unusually common quirks and idiosyncrasies of daily life,, with a philosophical message on what we think and worry about and fear everyday. It feels very human, which in and of itself, is odd, given that it's animated stick figures. I find it overall, an endearing look at life and how we interpret it.

Oddly introspective, slightly creepy and at times even a bit amusing. It's Such a Beautiful Day is a beautiful look in on a man struggling with an unmentioned mental disease but it goes further than just this. It addresses thoughts such as those of death that many people have and the way it does it makes the viewer think about their own way that they have approached these issues. This is particularly amazing in the fact that all of the animation is very minimalist and it is all tied together nicely by classical music. This being said the flow is odd at times making for a sort of surreal effect and some of the humor is good and dark and some of it just seems a bit out there.
