      Audience Member Un aperçue de la vie qu'a mené un homme et ses deux enfants pendant 11 ans. Dommage que la fin ne donne pas une idée de la vie après. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Evoking Jeff Nichols' Mud, The Good Life; follows a fugitive father and his two sons who've spent their years running. Its the Sons' desire to life a normal and decent life that's the conflict the drives the story within the family relationship. Maybe its just my choice to watch the unusual side of adolescence written out in a radical yet believable situation in a movie like this. Its all within the actor's performances and central conflict that drives the film forward without being sappy at all. Once again you have an impressive film that manages to live up to expectations. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
