    Great first effort from Alex Wolff

    Very emotionally honest and well written. A real heartfelt and relatable story.

    Brilliant and Entertaining

    This movie was absolutely amazing. I enjoyed the story so much, it made me both happy&sad, made me laugh& cry and also feel so many different emotions/connections with each character. Alex WROTE AND DIRECTED this movie and he did a damn good job. He's a convincing and captivating storyteller. Definitely a fun movie to watch and most definitely worth every penny. You won't be disappointed, in fact you'll want to see it again and again.

    Worth every minute.

    Was this movie perfect? No. Great films are rarely perfect, and yes this movie is great. It is a bit of a roller coaster ride,but one that keeps you interested from one scene to the next. There are all too familiar situations of reckless youth -and the terrible anger and despair of manic depression that often goes with it. I often thought of my own youth during this film,and how lucky i was to live through the more foolish times -when making stupid mistakes was a daily occurence. Performances are brilliant and inspired and the screenplay is excellent. Yes this is a film about a bunch of rich,selfish New York City kids, who are finding out who they really are; warts and all. IMO it should at the very least have a critic rating of 7.5, you should see it for yourself- you might agree.

    An honest review

    I didn't really like this movie, it's not a bad movie but there are movies that do it a lot better.

    The movie is about love and loss but you never really feel empathy for nick and the situation he is in. A main reason I feel this way is because there are no consequences for his actions he effects other with no sense of consideration for others and their well being maybe that was intentional but still it could have been portrayed a lot better.

    What I liked -The characters weren't all predictable -The actors and actresses in this film did fine overall ( it wasn't great acting just decent)

    Alex wolf did a good job with the character nick's self destructiveness and violent behaviour.

    But at the end of the day I feel like the movie takes too long to get there and by the end you are just unsatisfied and some people may not care.

    I certainly wouldn't give this movie a 10 no it's not great and I agree with another reviewer it's horribly paced and I do think some of these reviews are fake but it's fine I've seen worse would I watch it again ? No I wouldn't the movie is forgettable to put it nicely.

    4/10

    • Trivia
      Getting the film financed was the hardest task of any in its creation, according to director Alex Wolff. He recalled in several interviews how, in spite of his long career in acting and music, numerous people in the film industry were not even interested in hearing about his movie. His advice to young filmmakers has been to never give up, and never believe they can't succeed in making a movie.
