My review · Reviewed 06/15/2024
While I have been a big fan of most of Linklater's work, I almost skipped this one because I disliked Powell's movie with Sydney Sweeney that much. It is a good thing that I didn't - this movie was such a good time. While this movie came very close to some familiar roads, it managed to be very authentic and unique. I dare say that everything - script, casting, resolution, etc - was exactly as it should have been.
