Good movie. The acting of the main character is really great. Its not really a movie about Baltimore bike culture. Its more of a movie a teenager figuring his place in the world. If you like drama character driven films you will like this.
My friend invited me to see this film for his birthday. I'd never heard of it. I looked it up on IMDB and saw the 3.4 rating and negative reviews. I have seen bad Kevin Hart movies and thought great, I have to see another one. There were quite a few of unfunny comedy previews that only heightened my low expectations of this film. Here is my overall review:
There were 4 to 5 scenes where I and the entire theater were laughing so hard people were coughing and gasping for air. The other laughs were sparatic but kept the movie in a positive tone. There are sad and emotional elements that give the characters depth and are acted very well. All actors gave great performances. And I came out of the theater with sore stomach muscles and a smile.
I dont get these negative reviews. Yes it's a remake of a foreign film. So was The Departed. As an overall experience this movie IS funny and should be seen by many. Please ignore the negative reviews as I was also fooled by them. Anti KH/Oscars buzz perhaps?
