Kathleen Sachs Chicago Reader An earnest effort that nonetheless relies too heavily on gimmicks. Mar 3, 2020 Full Review Simran Hans Observer (UK) The attempts at authentic stoner dialogue soon become tedious, with too little plot or character development grounding the inanity. Rated: 2/5 Apr 14, 2019 Full Review Patrick Smith Independent (UK) Lending the film considerable ballast is an affecting performance by Sunny Suljic. Rated: 3/5 Apr 12, 2019 Full Review Max Greene InSession Film Mid90s struggles with an identity, but manages to be entertaining and exotic. The cloud of memories remind all of us of our youth and the life-or-death struggles we went through in order to be the adult at the end of that journey. Rated: B+ Aug 1, 2024 Full Review Calum Cooper Source (Scotland) A sturdy feature that respectfully relies on visual storytelling, and has clearly also come from a place of passion. Rated: 4/5 Jul 14, 2024 Full Review Akos Peterbencze Vulnerable Man (Medium) Jonah Hill’s directorial debut resonates on many levels with Millennials and finds a way to embrace a specific type of vulnerability.

M'lagroOG D I honestly don't know wtf Jonah Hill did reading these other reviews but this is probably the best coming of age film I've seen. It's not too goofy and unrealistic like Good Boys or any of the romance centered ones, and it's not too over the top like Thirteen or even Kids (I still like the ladder film). The characters dialogue doesn't sound stupid and "rad". Has a fun vibe to it for some scenes, and a very sad one for others. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/02/24 Full Review Luna M I really loved it. Although I wish it was longer. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/11/24 Full Review Gnr E No doubt acting was really good appreciate it Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/24/24 Full Review Munkhchimeg T Lovable characters are very cute. Plot and the whole dialogue was rizz. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/23/24 Full Review Jonah C 10/10 easily one of the best movies i’ve ever seen Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/24/24 Full Review jay j literally best acting ever and so real too Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/21/24 Full Review Read all reviews
