| 11.23.13 | Netflix | Sweet coming of age movie where a teenage boy finds solace against the wicked alcohol and weed fueled debauchery of a hamptons summer in the cool bikini-populated environs of a water park. Great performances throughout but a real spotlight role for Sam Rockwell as the carefree water park manager and moral center. I can't help but compare this movie to Adventureland which might be a bit unfair but since I really liked both films whatever... I feel like Adventureland is maybe a tad less dark with the parents stuff and more concentrating on coming of age but this isn't out of balance or anything like that. I just wish it were longer, more scenes at the water park. Great movie. |
