Wildflower is a hilarious big-hearted celebration of family in all its variety. A coming-of-age film about growing up too fast and slowing down just enough to recognize one's good fortune.

Critics Consensus

Wildflower benefits from its appealing ensemble cast, but their efforts aren't quite enough to distinguish this middling coming-of-age story.

Si bien lo mejor que tiene es la historia fuerte e inspiradora creo que el punto mas destacable es el tono de humor, no tiene miedo de reírse de si misma y de aprovechar sus puntos flojos a su favor. Dura casi 2 horas y se me termino haciendo corta.

Based on a true story, I found it completely delightful. Jean Smart and Jacki Weaver are amazing as always. Kiernan Shipka as Bea is the best. She reminds me a bit of Emma Stone with her quick wit and believability. I will be looking for other projects she is a part of. The high school scenes and high school student interactions are a bit weak and corny. The best parts of when Bea is dealing with her family, immediate and extended, and her boyfriend, Charlie Plummer It is a well-cast movie and I'm happy with the story's outcome. Go, Bea!!!

Great story, but definitely not a comedy. It is equal parts sweetness and anguish. Great cast!

Los Angeles Times

The characters in this film... too often feel like their dialogue and behavior has been cut-and-pasted from other quirky indie dramedies.

A sweet yet straightforward coming of age drama.

A terrific cast can only do so much with superficial, maudlin material in the coming-of-age dramedy “Wildflower.”

Rated: 2/4

Moviegoing with Bill

This movie is a celebration of independence and living the best lives possible, no matter the obstacles, and no matter how corny that notion by itself might be.
