It's a cheerful throwback to the 90s with a very engaging cast.

Overall, Tim Timmerman: Hope of America is a quirky but flawed film that is headed in the right direction, just good enough to get you to look forward to the filmmaker's next effort.

Rated: 2.5/4

Fairly tame high school comedy pays homage to '90s faves.

Tim Timmerman: Hope of America would be hopeless without Perino and Maidhof. He's got a raffish charm, she's delightful as an ingenue, and their chemistry together sparkles.

Rated: 3/4

Awesome Movie; had the opportunity to see it Last Night; Brought back the 80's for sure. I would say its a Ferris Bueller mixed with A Walk to Remember feel. good Humor, and just a all around clean entertaining Movie. Very Family Friendly. could almost get the PG rating. The Q&A after was solid as well got to discuss with Actors, Directors and writers and they'll were passionate about it, and enjoyed making the film.

Tim Timmerman Hope of America is a great film debut for the up and coming director, Cameron Sawyer. Anyone who has seen Sawyer's short film, She's a Fox, starring Hailee Steinfeld, knows that Tim Timmerman is another movie that is at the heart of Sawyer and his own life experiences. What Tim Timmerman lacks in big name stars, it makes up with a lot of love and passion for the story, and the message of the film. Yes, this movie is not a world beater. Most people will likely never hear of this movie, but for those who do see it will most likely find themselves rewatching Tim Timmerman anytime they're feeling nostalgic and looking for a feel good movie.

Great 90's era teen movie. Funny, moving, realistic and clever. Music, wardrobe, cars and setting were soon on for 1994. Original but felt inspirations from iconic teen flicks. Ferris Bueller, Napoleon Dynamite, Say Anything and Better Off Dead seemed influential. Clean family flick without being too cheesy. Highly recommend.
