when the man is too much of a green flag you had to ask if he’s gay before making the move 😭

randiOct 6, 2025I’m just like roofman cause I also stole video games but it was from a sweet old man at a flea market that trusted me and let me watch his shop as he went to the bathroom and then I resold them to GameStop. I was only 13!!!!! I’m very sorry old man I hope you’re okay

jessNov 23, 2025you could never make a movie like Roofman today. (i know this was cheap to make and that no one lost their shirt on it, but — of all the films that fell short at the box office this year — the failure of this one to connect with a wider audience might be the most damning…

first solo movie theater experience in quite a while. therapeutic but sad. i sat through the end credits like we used to do together. i miss you
really good concept, but definitely could have been executed way better. however, i did cry a few times. the quality was really bad for some reason so the video wasn’t clear and i couldn’t really hear most of what they were saying so i do want to watch it again in better quality.

If there are 5 things Derek Cianfrance loves, it's flawed hopeless romantics, bleach blonde hair, Ben Mendelsohn, failed relationships, and bikes. Good stuff. I could easily have seen Ryan Gosling having initially been offered this role, but Tatum did very well with the emotion.
Going into this I knew nothing about the true story. After watching, in my opinion it’s one of 2025’s best films. It’s heartfelt, funny, & standout performances from Channing & Kirsten. This film brings heart and levity to a wild real life tale, blending charm, tension & depth.

9/10 what an adventure and a great story, don’t quit understanding the punishments, seem the sentence in this instance was a bit extreme. Cast were all great and well told. Recommend.
I loved this movie more than I expected. It was shockingly heart warming and a feel good movie in a way. What a sweet man

I Absolutely loved this movie so much.
Great movie. Way better than Zoe’s movies
Metacritic
The laughs, the warmth, the love and the faith-based fellowship die out in the dismal final act.
It becomes easier in retrospect to admire the tricky tonal balance Cianfrance is going for throughout, resulting in a bumpy, ultimately successful melodrama.
Another, more textured film might have tried to paint him as more than just lovable rogue but Roofman is too focused on making us feel good rather than bad. I would have settled for conflicted.
