In this refreshingly modern coming-of-age story based on the best-selling book by Mason Deaver, a high school junior (Corey Fogelmanis) comes out as nonbinary and is thrown out of their family's home. With nowhere else to turn, they move in with their estranged older sister (Alexandra Daddario) and her husband (Cole Sprouse). After enrolling in a new school, they find support from an eccentric art teacher (Lena Dunham) and form an unexpected bond with a kindhearted student (Miles Gutierrez-Riley). With the help of their new relationships, they navigate the awkward hurdles of young adulthood in this sweetly funny journey of self-discovery that celebrates the power of being true to yourself.

A great and necessary addition to the queer coming of age film catalogue. Despite some pacing issues, I Wish You All the Best is filled with heart and empathetic performances that pack an uplifting punch. Sprouse and Daddario are particular standouts.

Fogelmanis is a breakout star, never shy to let his emotions pour out, bringing the character of Ben to life with a gentle grace. This is a film that wears its heart on its sleeve and deserves its moment in the sun.

Rated: 3/4
