Manchester by the Sea 4.5/5 I’ve seen few films throughout my cinematic-junkie career that jar the viewer and pick at the can of worms we all try to keep shut inside us the way Manchester by the Sea (2016) does.

Imagine someone laughing so hard that it registers as exercise on their Fitbit. After witnessing Hannibal Buress’ live show at the Royal Theatre on Saturday, October 22, I wouldn’t be surprised if that happened to some audience members that night.
