It is a carefully measured picture, one that takes its time and doesn’t overreach.

Lieve kleine film die tegelijkertijd boeide en verveelde. Een mooi verteld coming-of-age drama dat niet te veel uitlegt en de kijker zelf laat invullen. Hier en daar onsamenhangend, wat elders weer werd gecompenseerd door mooie scenes. En John C Reilly is altijd goed. Ik denk dat we nog veel van Jacob Wysocki gaan horen.

John C. Reilly might well be America's most underrated talent; Jacob Wysocki is more than up to the formidable challenge here, imbuing his Terri with an honesty all-too-rarely seen in screen teenagers. A wonderful snapshot of the kind of person you don't see studied often enough. Bridger Zadina and Olivia Crocicchia are superb in supporting roles, too.

I first heard about Terri from the great Filmspotting podcast, where they gave the film a solid review. While I always make a mental note to catch a film that's well-reviewed on the show, I took special note of Terri as the film dealt with an overweight kid in high school. As a former high schooler with weight issues, I've always been drawn to drama films with heavy dudes in the lead roles; it's always great to see us big…

A film I had heard nothing about until I ran across it on TV. Jacob Wysocki turns in an excellent performance as Terri, an overweight kid who is quite odd ... he wears pajamas to school every day because their comfortable and has no friends to speak of. John C. Reilly is the vice principal who takes an interest and tries to help him. As the story plays out, Terri is befriended by a young troublemaker (Bridger Zadina) and a…

This movie was extremely charming and had some very human moments. John C Reilly steals the show, but Jacob Wysocki is great as the awkward but lovable titular character.
The only thing that keeps me from really loving this movie is just HOW real it was. There were some scenes that reminded me of people I know that just made me uncomfortable and while that's generally a good thing, it really bummed me out.

John C. Reilly is great in this otherwise not-so-great piece of bland toast.

Existen muchos dramas sobre la adolescencia pero es muy raro encontrarse con uno tan honesto y genuino como "Terri". He aqui una cinta que nos deleita con personajes reales que son interpretados a la perfeccion por un gran reparto (Jacob Wysocki sorprende en el papel protagonico, creando un personaje con el cual simpatizamos y admiramos). "Terri" cuenta la vida cotidiana de un chico quien tiene que cuidar a su tio y lidiar con problemas en la escuela. El corazon de…

TERRI is essentially Angus for a new generation.
I loved Angus. That bodes well for TERRI.
It’s the story of a severely overweight and misunderstood high school student. He lives with his mentally ill uncle, his best friend is the school principal, and he wears pajamas everywhere because they’re the only clothes that fit him comfortably.
John C. Reilly plays the principal and he’s great, as usual. This and his turn in Cedar Rapids are two of my favorite performances…

El cine independiente puede estar lleno de convencionalismos,pero difícilmente tiene freaks escolares tan sutilmente memorables. No es otro estúpido dramedy indie protagonizado por John C. Reilly. O bueno si, pero de todos modos hay que verlo.
