Take Shelter (2011)

Movies about mental illness are hard to watch, just as I’m sure it’s hard to live with. Take Shelter is slow moving and kind of depressing. I thought the ending was a copout. You can’t spend the entire film watching the main character come to terms with his illness, and then jerk the wheel towards him being a visionary at the last second. Some nice performances were wasted on this project.
