It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
