POSITIVES…
- Sunny Suljic is amazing in his role as Stevie, and comes off so authentic
- Captures the “slacker generation” era really well.
- I liked some of the thematic plot points, surrounding Stevie’s journey, his Brother, his Mother, and his skateboarding friends.
- The chemistry and dynamics between the characters felt spot on.
- There’s a certain “raw” feel to the movie, that feels more like a series of snapshots of a story, than a purely written narrative.
NEGATIVES…
- Because of the way this story is told, it also feels like it meanders too much at some points.
- The characters in this movie aren’t always the most likable people that you’d actually want to watch a movie about.
- Due to the naturalistic style of storytelling, the movie can feel a little bit incomplete.
P.S….
- I was reminded at how much I simply didn’t like the fashion style of the 1990s.
