Every 21 Seconds

21 Seconds is a must see!!! An amazing well rounded cast lead by Shannon Brown! Such amazing performances and a beautifully shot film showing a topic that needs to be brought into the light! Brown's attention to detail as he digs into a complex multi sided character was amazing. Not too much, always just right. Beautifully directed and shot.

I recently watched this film and found it to be thought-provoking and impactful. The movie is adapted from a book written by Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) survivor Brian Sweeney, also titled Every 21 Seconds, which is the estimate of how often someone in the United States sustains a TBI. Shannon Brown and Kelly Thiebaud turn in stellar performances as Brian and his wife Mary Beth. They help us to understand the uncertainties, the pain, the losses, and the triumphs of their personal TBI story - a story that continues to this day as Brian's TBI is a permanent part of their lives. This film is what indie filmmaking should continue to strive toward. Telling stories, whether they be fiction or non-fiction, in real ways. Give me this over a green screen cgi-centric film every time! Congrats to Shannon, Kelly, Kuba Luczkiewicz (director), the rest of the cast, the crew, and anyone else who breathed life into this film. Thank you and well done!

I have a severe brain injury and I don't like this movie because it isn't accurate and perpetuates stigma and ignorance about what we go through. I'm not happy with this movie at all. It doesn't show the pain and struggle we go through, but it makes the families out to be victims of the injured person. They glaze over too much that matters and leave out important details

As the Wife of a TBI survivor, I found this movie very believable. Brian Sweeney went through all the emotions my husband went through. The anger the depression and the mood swings are something we have dealt with for 38 years, but I would not trade if for the world because this journey has made us who we are today. Great low budget film they are right on point

Don't bother. Terrible acting throughout. If there was more of a budget then this film could definitely be a hit but the way it is is really disappointing. Shame really.

This film start with a man "Brian" jogging, back home with his wife, daughter and son! As turnout, this film is about Brian got beat up at a bar and suffering traumatic brain injury! He need to recover and try to remember what actually happen at the bar that night! Entire film full of blackout scene! Is this necessary for the maker of this film to edit like this? This will only make audience fall asleep! Only intense scene is Brian choke his wife when they arguing about taking the rehab! And barely laughable scene is the conversation of Brian fighting with the friend he make at the rehab center "John"! At the end, Brian eventually figure out what happen that night at the bar after John throw a thing at him and he rush to the court with John to testify! Big spoiler ahead! Brian actually beat by the ring weapon wear on the hand of the mastermind "Ricky"! Ricky charge guilty after Brian testimony! That's it! Another wasting time to watch film! Very disappointed!

When my wife told me in the hospital that I had a Traumatic Brain Injury, I didn't know a thing about it. When I saw this movie, it was a reminder of my own recovery. Shannon Brown's portrayal is superb. The story is a true inspiration that improvement can happen after TBI. The supporting cast helped make this a truly excellent film!

This movie was absolutely freaking awesome was so believable and heartfelt I really enjoyed this and it made me have empathy for the real Brian Sweeney and family and all the people out there dealing with TBI
