I am still trying to recover from this film. AMAZING! I don't understand how this film did not get more play and attention when it was released. The camera angles are so innovative that I felt like I was in each scene with the characters feeling and experiencing the same things they acted out. Being a 40 year old male this movie hit such a cord with me. The challenges that are discussed and pitfalls that real people experience were so accurate. Obviously it is a film so some parts (2nd half) are for entertainment value but very believable. The sound track was SPOT on for the era of the characters youth and appropriate for the content of the movie. This OST impressed me so much I just finished buying it online. Brought me back to my younger days and revived memories that have been long forgotten as I have fallen into the expected roles of an adult male. Gosh this movie really left me with a wide range of emotions. Not just a movie but an experience, in 2 hours I felt jealous, happy, excited, scared, sad, mad, depressed, elated, anxious, and shocked. That is what I expect from a great movie. I don't care what emotion you make me feel but make me FEEL something when I watch a film. This movie topped every expectation I ever could have had. I am sure it won't go over well with many viewers. This is a very unique movie and topic, some won't get it and some will hate it. But I suspect those who love it (as I did) will love it as much as me. Just amazing. Kudos to the actors and director! Just speechless myself. Coming upon 40? Watch it. Don't forget to remember.... Note: This is only my second review... It took an amazing movie to motivate me enough to share my opinion.
