It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.
This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.
