Pretty cute chill out

That was pretty cute but was long at the same time. If u want to impress ir something like that don't watch with that expectation, I wanted be on the journey when I watch it, chill.Life is not bad as u see there is more out there, I saw a lot with all my journey but I know there are more like this guys showed me.I see a lot of bad review people hate it just I didn't understand what they expected, the movie tell you chill but as I understand from your review you didn't.I mean yea maybe would be better but I don't think they wanted show as something better and impressive I think they exactly showed us what they want and it was chill.

A life affirming coming of age story for gen z.. which should have been a slasher

I went into this blind and in the end I rather enjoyed it.The nature of the movie makes any viewer older than the main characters feel compelled to criticise it and all the while, it is difficult to ever genuinely feel entitled to do so. In a simple sense, the characters are drawn to be inarticulate and somewhat 2 dimensional, but then people at 17/18 tend to be like this.In this sense the film feels more relatable, although the plot feels wholly unrealistic, even for however simple it all is. 5 kids who have just finished high school decide to go on a road trip to the pacific coast 500 miles away? Speak to and trust every stranger in sight? Don't stare at their phone constantly? Yeah I don't think so.Themes of being alienated, feeling different, and having no community and not knowing what they want to do are all painfully ironic when they seem to relate so strongly to each other and to literally every person they meet and feel capable to venture out wherever they want. The characters almost represent the antithesis of what they feel afflicted by. To be sure, I am confident this was deliberate albeit on the nose.Still, the film remains both thematically, and visually inspired, and optimistic. Most of the characters are not developed much, but I suppose this is the point. Lots of different imagery, and juxtapositions of music make the film feel different in a characteristically "independent" sorta way. For what it is worth, since I don't watch many movie like this I enjoyed that component.I don't know in what way this is meant to reflect the zeitgeist or the current concerns and interests of young people when I swear this has been the story of the youth since time began. Similarly, I question who this movie is really made for given it is a streaming on Mubi- a service I estimate most young people don't have, the lack of character development and generally easy roles for each of the characters makes it less relatable still to an older audience.Still I want to acknowledge that the attempt made to reflect the reckless and uncertain feelings of being a teenager are commendable. Shaky camera handling, very wide angles as well as very intimate angles all present an obscured moment which seems to leave as soon as it is noticed.I would recommend this bearing in mind about 30-40% of the time it feels like a commercial for Abercrombie and Fitch.A part of me also really thinks this could have achieved greater heights if it followed the same plot for about 30-40 minutes and then become a blockbuster horror slasher movie. That might of been neat.

Really special movie, full of feeling and life.

I suppose you can watch a movie like this and feel nothing at all if you really want to.That wasn't the case for me. Loved the thing, felt really connected to the group even though I more than double their age and I'm South American. Made me realize how similar the life experiences of people can be across time and space. How universal our feelings are.And the closing track almost made me cry, so much beauty and feeling.Sorry, not very great with the English language, but wanted to offer a counterpoint to the chorus of jaded reviews. I watched, I loved, left an impression on me. Hope you can be open to it as well.
