Instantly charming, emotionally charged, and flawed in all the right ways. A restrained, impeccably edited 90-minute runtime. I came in optimistic, but I never expected a perfect coming of age film.
About star ratings
My ratings are subjective. I’m not aiming for a perfect ranking of comparative artistic merit, just trying to represent how I feel about stuff. Here’s what they mean:
★★★★★
Personal favorite. I simply love it, warts and all.
★★★★☆
Something special. Highly recommended.
★★★☆☆
Good, but unremarkable. I’ll probably forget about it.
