Not every movie needs to be loud to make you feel something.Some just need to be honest.
Everything’s Going to Be Great (2025) is a film that doesn’t try to entertain with drama. Instead, it quietly invites you into the lives of a family trying to move forward after their world falls apart.
The story begins with Buddy Smart, a passionate theater dad, full of life and dreams. He’s the kind of person who brings color into every room. But when he dies unexpectedly, that color fades. Macy, his wife, is left to raise their two sons—each of them grieving in their own way. The youngest, Lester, escapes into imaginary conversations with theater characters, holding onto his dad through stories. His older brother, Derrick, closes up. And Macy? She holds everything together with silent strength.
What makes this movie so beautiful is its realism. There’s no miracle moment. No magical fix. Just a slow, honest journey through heartbreak, confusion, and quiet healing.
The performances are moving, especially from Allison Janney, who plays Macy with so much depth. Her pain isn’t loud—but it’s always there.
I watched the film on Afdah, and it was the perfect experience. Clean streaming, great quality, and no fuss. If you’re looking for a film that feels real—and lets you feel too—don’t miss this one.
