Happiness Runs Review


Reel Review: The Happiness Runs Movie was released May 7th of 2010. It was released by Strand Releasing; and the rating is not available. It is a drama and there are a lot of good cast members in this movie. The director and the producers are hoping it goes over well in the theaters and box offices.

What’s Inside: A man named Victor realizes he has setbacks and short comings of the ideas on the hippie commune where he was raised. His mother pays for the commune where the guru hypmotizes women and seduces them in which he calls running. He does this so that they give him not only their bodies but everything they have in the worldly way. Such as homes, money and anything else they might have. This is a polygamous cult. And following the ways of the insley’s free will for love theory the adults overlook the fact that their children are being harshly subjected to sex and drugs. It is a good movie and people have good things to say about it, some say they had no idea places like that can exist but they do.

Victor wants to escape again and tries to sell weed however his rivals know more people and sells to them first. He is haunted by visions of his past and his deathly ill father and is entangled with confusion from his youth.

Wrapping It Up: When all else fails, he finally goes to his mother and yet he is torn between getting money from his mother who is completely under insley’s influence, dealing with violent drug addicted friends and staying to save his love Becky who is spinning out of control. For some this is a hard movie to watch and its even harder to know that these places and cults do exist. What is even worse is knowing someone who has joined one of these cults or plans on joining one.
