It's amusing, moving, well-played stuff.

Despite its gimmicky provenance, Hollidaysburg proves to be a nicely low-key, unassuming coming-of-age tale about a group of former high school friends reuniting in their Pennsylvania small town during Thanksgiving college break.

Martemucci intertwines these stories gracefully, and with the charm and charisma of her cast, makes clever banter and script contrivances seem completely natural and unaffected.

Since I was raised in Pennsylvania like Lukas, I could practically feel the industrial dust and chilly autumn wind on my skin, and savor the multi-flavored pumpkin pies and other rich Thanksgiving fixings.

2/4

The movie jumps right in without taking the time to properly introduce us to the people we'll be following for 87 minutes. By the time I finally figured everything out, I no longer cared.

2.5/5

The hormones run hot in Pennsylvania. The weather, cold. The talk is constant. The marijuana plentiful. The action minimal.

Great coming of age story. Wish there was a little more at the end to wrap up the story lines but all in all, I really enjoyed the film.

Natural acting and some really brilliant/dumb dialogue. Don’t worry about where it’s going and enjoy the killer performances. Anna the director plays Courtney. Product of the Starz film competition The Chair.

Meh. This felt forced most of the time, like the actors were literally reading the script as they were performing. The Chair reality documentary series that this came out of was better and felt more natural. But I still admire the attempt that was made here. The music was good. And there were a few moments that connected with me.

Simple and pleasant. The kind of movie you relate to subtly and wholly. The kind you watch in your bed alone.
