This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
