8/10
This Too Shall Pass is a wonderful update to the classic 80s, coming-of-age adventure with plenty of heart and important life lessons. Go to Full Review
Kat Hughes THN Nov 13
4/5
Grant infuses the film with an air of bittersweetness, mirroring life in its fusion of melancholy and laughter. Far more than just another 80s throwback, This Too Shall Pass is an elegantly charming coming-of-age teen comedy. Go to Full Review
Louisa Moore Screen Zealots Nov 6
A spirited, nostalgic, and big-hearted ride that reminds you what it felt like to be young, lost, and free for a weekend. Go to Full Review
Brent McKnight The Last Thing I See Oct 29
A funny, bittersweet, messy story of a time that’s, well, funny, bittersweet, and messy, even if the delivery system is at times a nostalgia overload. Go to Full Review

Jared Mobarak Hey, Have You Seen ...? Oct 25
7/10
