About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a nostalgic, music-filled hangout movie about one last night before adulthood, in the spirit of The Wonder Years or Breaking Away; Not for you if you need a tight, plot-driven story.

Pros: killer period soundtrack; nostalgic 60s vibe; funny slice-of-life moments | Cons: thin overall story; jumps between subplots; can feel slow
