Ode to Joy reviews

Ode to Joy holds a 6.1/10 average from 138 TMDB ratings.

Really good watch, would watch again, and can recommend. The concept of living a life without "joy" is intriguing, but it doesn't feel like a very cinematic story as a concept. The movie takes great pains to try to compensate for this. I believe the casting definitely helped here. And sure I understand guys fainting at the thought of being with Morena Baccin, but I'm not about to kick Melissa Rauch out of bed either…

Charlie suffers from a serious disease that causes acute narcolepsy whenever he is happy. Although he develops a variety of techniques to deny himself pleasure and deal with his sleep issues, they’re put to the test when he falls in love.
