Viggo Mortensen breaks Lord of the Rings' fourth wall through Captain Fantastic, perpetuating perpetual virtuosity.starnamedstork
Leave No Trace meets Little Miss Sunshine. 8/10TomReagan
Breath of fresh air. Loved it.Emiam
8/10What a fantastic (haha) film - see it if you can and have not yet done so! Interesting and no common theme, great acting.
How can this NOT be in any film toplist??!!

Inspiring. Really made me want to raise my kids in a bus in the forest myself. Not only did it make me cry, but easily made its way into my top 10. 10/10Andrewski
Probably my favorite anti-capitalist family dramedy, but easily in my top 3.DaniloFreiles
Pessimo esempio di ribellione allo stile di vita cosiddetto "civile". In pratica si fanno le stesse cose ma lontani dalle comodità tipiche della comunità che si è riunita proprio per questo. Però quando serve qualcosa si torna in città a razziare con un cazzo di autobus che consuma quanto dieci auto.Non mangiano in un bar perché vendono "non cibo" ed "acqua avvelenata" (cola). Ma vanno in un supermercato per RUBARE torte, panna in lattina ed altra spazzatura. Viva la natura.
Potevano fare un bel film ed hanno fatto una megacazzata.

I've seen few films that suffered more from important-film-itis. So earnest and humorless that it was a two hour slog.sunanoonna
Captain Fantastic ends up being too corny in its venture to be quirky.6/10

Overrated. Vigo is great, though.zombierobo
Was looking for a movie similar to Little Miss Sunshine for so long. THIS is it!!!!!cellophane_eyes
Great cover of "sweet child of mine"palefire
Thoreau's Walden is very much an influence here. Impressive display of survivalism/self-education, but with many possibility intended hypocritical moments:Siskoid
Captain Fantastic stars Viggo Mortensen as a survivalist raising his kids outside the system, at least until their mother's death forces him to bring them into the so-called "real world", where he is made to question his decisions. The twist is that we've come to think of survivalists as extreme Right, probably religious gun nuts. This family is on the extreme Left, super-hippies who have abandoned our consumer society. The film does a good job of making us question whether it's good or bad to live outside the system, especially in terms of education, and just how much of home schooling includes indoctrination (and indeed whether the public or private school systems do too), but it's also a touching story about a father doing what he thinks is best for his children. Parents could do worse than to watch this with an open mind and contrast their own styles to "Captain Fantastic"'s.devilsadvocado
Over-the-top and ham-handed. What occurs when an overly stimulated intellect is unable to resist the urge of touching itself.Showing items 1 – 15 of 22
