Ab L In this thoughtful, provoking and funny movie, you "see" the world through technicolor glasses. The emotional, dramatic moments are balanced by some great, occasionally slightly dark, comedy. A strong cast, performing a strong story, given character-centered direction all make a relatively unknown condition very relatable. Teen angst, family dynamics, and neighborhood hijinks are a worthy combination. Break out the popcorn and prepare to have a great movie night. (Buy extra popcorn; you'll want to watch it again.)

If you’ve ever felt like the world was tuned to a frequency only you could hear, this movie will feel like home." Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/13/25 Full Review Charlie H At it's core, Magnetosphere is a sweet coming-of-age film. But there are so many layers that it's easy to relate to Maggie, the main character. The family tending, the first big crush, the "best" friend, the mean girls, the caring teacher, and yes, the infuriatingly loveable sibling... it's all there. What truly sets this apart, though, is Maggie's experience of synesthesia, a rare and fascinating condition that allows her to experience sounds as colors and textures. The film doesn't portray this as a burden, though; rather, it's presented with wonder and empathy. The audience is warmly welcomed into Maggie's unique perspective. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/13/25 Full Review Grant H An excellent, uplifting film about coming of age, neurodiversity, family, and first love. The casting is excellent, with quirky, authentic characters. I loved seeing the world through Maggie's eyes. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/12/25 Full Review Lea P I watched this gem at an NYC screening and absolutely loved it! It was heartfelt, funny, heartwarming, and shedding a few tears here and there. No worries... happy tears! Everything I love about going to the movies. It left me feeling happier than when I entered the theater, something I aspire to do myself with my films, so that's a huge success for me! I love a good coming-of-age film and this one really warmed my heart. I can definitely recommend it! Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 08/11/25 Full Review Will H I was at a NYC screening and I loved this coming of age film. Anyone who grew up feeling different and can celebrate life's eccentricities --- this movie is for you. I left with a smile on my face!
