Coming Of Age
27 January 2013
This is a very good movie about teenagers coming of age, facing the experiences of growing up. There is enough drama in the realities that we can all identify with and there is humor found in these ordinary scenes. Overall, the film is a genuine paean to being young and facing that point at which you're not so young anymore. A must-see for any serious movie lover.

And for the official line count, I'll point out that there is a car chase, a sex scene and a lot of good-natured scenes of boys being boys. Nothing in the movie is played for the sake of making something out of the past that wasn't really there.
