I’m autistic and I was threatened with a fucking gun during one of my meltdowns.
This is one of the most positive reviews of Music I've seen
Not to mention she groomed an 11 year old girl to be in a "Mother/daughter" relationship and that she writes musical parts to "Save her" she also admitted sleeping with her in the same bed. Good musician or no good musician this shit raises so many red flags.
LESLIE WITH AN ACCENT
As a sperg this just makes autistic people just seem immature with no accountability and a “ya just gotta wrangle em brother” mentality, and part of why no one wants to even get potentially diagnosed and seek treatment because this is the public’s perception of it
Fun Fact: this movie was nominated for a Razzie award. Well-deserved as it should. As a fellow autistic, I felt a sense of schadenfreude when I found that out. 😌
Did... did the African guy "Lenny" his brother?
When the TV show, What Would You Do Has Better Actors
This looks like the worst movie ever.
my question is who did they get leslie odom jr.? how did they get aaron burr, sir?
Kate Hudson's alive? (you know which voice to read this with)
so the thing about "working with" autism speaks, it doesn't actually matter if they had anything to do with the production, someone who doesn't know to steer clear of autism speaks shouldn't be making a movie about autism
Voodoo, Prayers and herbs to everyone involved with this project's careers'.
The expression music had just screams "doofus." I actually lolled.
How did this never get recommended to me?
I know this has been repeated like 20 times over, but I’m just amazed how the whole “lay on top of autistic people it calms them down :)” was allowed in this movie. The first thing you’re taught as a direct support professional is to only use an EUMR when they’re a threat to others/themselves and when all other possibilities haven’t worked. And an EUMR doesn’t involve restraining them on the ground with your entire body on top of theirs. This is so ungodly terrible.
And to think for years I was giving my Autistic friends the people’s elbow whenever they started fitting. Funny how restraining someone does a shit job of calming someone down
Spaghetti
You know that Leslie Odom Jr. was praying this movie would never see the light of day.
I too want to learn how to lay on autistic people.
The way he says "She doesn't know who she's hitting" sounds so threatening... Like he's about to say: "She doesn't know who she's hitting, give her a sharp lesson!"
I've seen a ton of bad movies but none of them were DANGEROUS. This garbage is.
What if this was Sia's genius way to bring attention to autism. By disastrously showing the opposite of things you should do to make many people communicate the correct way.
Ok, i watched this movie. It isn't perfect. There's enough to feed the vultures, for sure. But it was enjoyable, despite what some have expressed. Having lived with children that have special needs, it was relatable. As a freshman film, I'd give it a 6.
This movie is about as bad as an Autism Speak PSA. Why is Lilly Rose Silver (Rosa) from Netflix's Kid Cosmic and Leslie Oden Jr. from Disney+ Hamilton in this garbage? I don't blame them tho. Plz, go watch Kid Cosmic. It's from Craig McCracken of The Powerpuff Girls Fame and it's amazing.
What I wanna know is why are autistic people always portrayed as mentally deficient? Like in this movie from the clips I saw this girl is walking around like she had no fucking clue what is going on, basically acting like someone who has severe downs syndrome (nothing at all against people with that condition). I dont know about other people, but I have never met an autistic person who acts like that. I know some really really severely autistic people have alot of issues but I have never met one that acted like they were mentally challenged like that and I dont think it helps with the image of autistic people by portraying them as invalids who have no clue how to do anything. A majority of autistic people are perfectly capable even genius level people and just have some strange traits like being very socially awkward or stimming or not being able to handle certain stimulation. I have never met one that was like how autistic people are portrayed in media. Autistic people are very capable intelligent feeling people. They arent invalids. Stop portraying them like that.
They should've brought the autistic reporter from the Onion
I can’t believe I have to explain this to some people, but here we are. If your best friend was freaking out over something and started having a panic attack, would your response be to lay on top of them and restrain them? No! Then, don’t fucking do it to autistic people. It’s really not that complicated
Virtue signaling, “The Movie.”
“He is dead now.”
is it ableist to cast non psychopathic people as psychopaths?..
My bruda. He dead now. Dis is da wae.
When I saw that Adam covered this (honestly the first time I heard of this film) however I knew this 7 minute video would tell me all I need to know. Very saddening. I thought Sia would be different from all assholes from Cali
"stick to Music" But she did...
When they pinned the girl down, it reminded me of the Candice Newmaker tragedy, and I immediately got angry and disgusted.
Still unsure about the whole 'needing an actor with the same disability as the character they are portraying' argument...isn't that what acting is!? I may just be totally out of touch though, to be fair.
I think the most egregious thing about the movie is, if you want to make a movie representing someone with the low - functioning end of the spectrum, fine. But the fact that they just used the character as essentially a plot device for OTHER characters to grow, without any part of the story really centering Music herself, is just baffling. It's really looking like this is just Sia's vanity project.
People just need to stop trying to represent autism. You are never going to represent us correctly so just stop.
I love the autism speaks commercial is literally those kids vibing "I WILL RUIN YOUR MARRIAGE" cue little girl just... fucking coloring or some shit, a kid just hanging out on a rock... HORRIBLE
okay so a few things, you were acting like maddie getting upset about the routine changing was bad writting because why would she do that but thats an autistic thing. also you shouldnt restrain autistic people when they have meltdowns, you said when they have fits, VERY different.
i can't believe Leslie agreed to this, i expected better from him
*WHERE IS SYNECDOCHE, NEW YORK (PART 6)??!!!???*
*effort sound* for the film
I used to love sia's music but that *restraint* shit made me so angry and sick to my stomach. My little brother is nonverbal autistic and this movie is so much more offensive and harmful than sia realizes
Please don’t be angry with Maddie, people. She was forced into doing this and she was FOURTEEN at the time.
They did hire an autistic actor, but changed their mind because it was too hard to handle, lol. Damn
3:21-3:41 I have autism and I don't have a miserable life because of it. I don't know why they are referring to autistic people not being able to succeed later in life.
Kate Hudson looks so much younger than she actually is with the tomboy look.
Voo doo, prayer and herbs 😂😂 I’m sorry how do they think that’s a cure for autism. Ps I also like the way he reviewed the movie it was funny
PCM, professional crisis management, is used all the time on highly behavioral autistic people. Includes physical holding them down in different techniques.
Canadite for r/creepy*: *effort sound * with no context
I'll be honest me as a completely non-autistic person, the first time I saw Ziegler's portrayal of an autistic person thought it was extremely stereotypical and offensive, almost ridiculing. Of course I'm not blaming Ziegler for it because she's a literal child, I'm blaming Sia, the actual adult who directed her to do that.
According to several articles about this movie, Maddie Ziegler was very reluctant to play her role and broke down because she didn't want to make an offensive caricature of autistic people, but Sia forced her to. Keep in mind that Maddie was around 14 during the filming of this movie.
Hey, Sia. As a guy with Asperger's Syndrome (a form of Autism) I don't like being manhandled like some sort of wild animal. It certainly doesn't make me feel "safe".
Sia originally hired an autistic girl to play Music and then fired her because she kept getting overwhelmed on set. So instead of accommodating someone with ASD, Sia just fired an an actor because she couldn't help that she had ASD... For a movie about a character with ASD. I hate this woman
Voodoo?! ...VOODOO?!!!
NOworld is currently trying to surpress cynical Reviews video on this movie.
Why tf could she not name Music a real name? And make her nickname Music? And no, Sia’s response there wasn’t funny, now the Grrr fury tweet, THAT was funny!
Bathsalts and autism: the movie
**E F F O R T S O U N D S**
"An organization that helps autistic people in the same way that PETA helps animals" Touché.
cuaron how could u
I actually laughed when the Afrikano man spoke of his brudda
He sounds bored lol.
0:03 "I really love Sia's Music" _confused screaming_
its gross when the fucking Onion has a more believable and more researched autistic caricature than Sia.
God I hate how true that.
God damn as an autistic person this film is absolutely unbearable. Just watching clips of it actually physically hurts
I haven't seen the movie but isn't it very obvious that the "Sister" is actually the mom who left her autistic daughter with grandma?
Just watch Rain Man.
The way art people constantly use disabled people (e.g mentally ill people and people with neurodivergencies) for their “art” is creepy. I swear I’ll watch an “art piece” that’s just a movie and think “Jesus Christ this literally feels like it was made with the specific intended purpose of harming, triggering or just all around negatively involving nd people”. I got it with this house has people in it and now this.
Hudson is a total prop actress. Name one film you saw and felt like you connected with her?
Do promising young women please!
This whole movie is just Sia going *Effort sound*
Razzies nominated it for worst picture, worst director, worst actress for Kate Hudson, and worst supporting actress for Maddie Ziegler
Impressive.
There´s something about mary...
Nobody: Sia: Yup. I still don't understand autism
Just call her Melody. That's a name. Music is just a word. Not a even a good word...
Does Sia want to destroy her own career? Cuz this and her twitter meltdown make it seem like she wants to destroy her own career. Iirc Sia has stated she has bipolar disorder, why not make some cool embelished pseudo-biographical story of a young girl learning to manage her disorder and find her own voice using her own personal experience as inpiration? Im sure it would've come off way more thoughtful and honest than this...if she wants to keep any good will she may have left i'd suggest she stick to music
She wore a wig because she is absolutely hideous
"I'm sure you'll find the cure for autism in no thyme"
WTF WAS THAT AUSTIM ADD
New subscriber, ur hilarious dude :D
The restraint scenes don’t look like proper restraints??? Like just laying on top of someone isn’t a restraint it’s just weird and uncomfortable. Second, restraints aren’t designed with autistic people in mind. They’re designed for aggressive patients who are a danger to themselves or others around them, and only if the aggressor isn’t calming down should they be used. I’ve been held down and restrained multiple times, what you’re supposed to do is grab the wrists and cross them over, and go behind the restrainee so you don’t hurt yourself in the process. Restraints are awful but so many people in the mental health industry just use it liberally and it’s not ok. The main purpose of a restraint is to keep the restrainee safe but it also wears them out emotionally and physically. I just want to take a nap after those types of encounters.
My whole life is lead up to this.
3:50 I think the ad is being misunderstood, the narrator is not the autistic person speaking to us, it is autism itself personified speaking to the person suffering from it.
I love movie musicals, but even I couldn't be bothered to sit through this garbage.
Thanks for watching Music so the rest of us didn’t have to. Can we discuss the fact that the singer who wrote songs like Alive, I’m Still Here, Titanium, and Sledgehammer, lashed out and very badly AT the autistic community because her movie was not received well.
The movie was just downright boring and cringy.. I couldn't get past 30 minutes
would you possibly consider putting a warning at the beginning of this video just saying that the restraining scenes are in here, not just bc they’re triggering but just so it’s made very clear that it’s dangerous? i’m an autistic fan and i appreciate you making this review and talking both about the controversies and the fact that the film is also just shit lol
God, I'm autistic, the restraining scenes make me feel sick. That would be so horrible.
Great review, I agree with everything you said, except I feel the need to add that as an autistic person the way she cast no autistic actors genuinely hurts me so much, because of the exaggerated way that the main character acts. Seeing this movie just hurts me so much, especially with the awards it’s winning...
imagine if everytime you told someone you feel scared or overwhelmed they tackled, pushed, grabbed, crushed and held you down with their entire weight on you. on top of that, you are expected to actually calm down and not fight back.
The “you shouldve hired an autistic actor” and sia responding with “maybe you are a bad actor” exchange makes sense in terms of why sia responded the way she did. It kind of goes back to the movie that was cancelled or maybe it was released i cant remember where they hired Scarlet Johanson to play a transgender character and people were made that they didnt use an actual transgendered person. Just because you are autistic does not mean you fit the role. Of course to some degree peoples actual personality fits in with the movies character but its not just solely that, you can be the embodiment of the character but that doesnt mean you can act in a movie that covers that. Just because im german doesnt mean i could play a german character. Just saying im not implying that autistic people cant be actors, or that they arent good enough im just voicing an observation from another point of view.
Cuarón?! FFS.
I had this video playing at 0.75x speed and thought you were just being _really_ sarcastic for the first minute and a half.
I really hate how people act like autism is a choice to have. Like your child wakes up one day and goes “Hmm... I’ll be autistic for the rest of my life and ruin my parents’ marriage :)” Like it’s so fucked to blame the children for something they can’t control because you and your fuck buddy don’t get along anymore. I just remembered when I first saw that autism ad and got so scared of having autism because I was like 6 and didn’t know what was actually going on??? And then I started to exhibit signs of autism (I am now waiting until I move out to get examined). It was terrifying at first because I legit thought I was going to ruin my mother’s life because I had signs of autism (even though they weren’t recognized as that and instead punished bc my mom doesn’t believe in anything mental-)
Loved how the main character finally over came it’s struggles to commit multiple hate crimes against a autistic child 😄
I was more compelled by the asain boy who just wanted to dance but then he dies because of course he dies
The part about this movie that gets me is that actual autistic actors auditioned and yet they cast some neurotypical chick to play a fucking caricature.
Hell Sia try to defend this by saying "we had an autistic actor, but the set was too overwhelming for them so we recast" . Which should've sent her a huge red flag about the movie she was making.
Sia, gun in hand: sign the damn contract, Leslie. Leslie Odom Jr.: I don’t want to do the Black Panther accent, just let me leave, I’ve gotta go film One Night in Miami anyways Sia: Oh, so you like pretending to be Sam Cooke? *cocks gun* sign the contract or we’ll do a little reenactment of a motel in 1964 California.
this is great, and way too muxh effort to waste on a NOworld comment
I feel as if Sia watched I Am Sam once and said okay let’s do this but let’s add music!
“Autistic people have special abilities” -Sia
