Lower is better
Review
The movie is candid conversations between Jonah Hill and his therapist Phil Stutz about personal anxiety, body image struggles, grief, and Stutz’s practical “Tools” for handling pain, uncertainty, and inner resistance. No identity themes, no girl power, no social-justice elements, and no activist messaging appear at any point. The entire film stays locked on individual mental health tools and vulnerability with zero political or representation lectures.
