Watched
As if a self-pitying hipster decides to shoot a mix of Kikujiro and End of Tour. All these conversations of soft Americans, lost in a forest of three pines and attaching importance to trifles, would definitely infuriate if they were not balanced by the childlike charm of small actors.

Watched
It’s nice to see people talking about all their pens. Only in the movies you see such a miracle. Without psychological guides and moralizing. Just unobtrusively pushing to appreciate loved ones.

Watched
At times it seemed as if the film was trying to show how to find balance with your inner child, which is often incomprehensible to an accomplished adult.

Watched
Beautifully filmed and played by talented actors, a nice little conversational film about the problems with the communication of mankind, which is unbearably boring to watch. All this is superimposed with hatred for ill-mannered, unknowing shorties and the way they are worn around here, fu, straight disgusting.

Watched
The synopsis is deceiving. This is not a road trip at all, but rather an exploration of the child’s soul, a little psychoanalysis and a lot of techniques for working with children.

Watched
The film just passed me by, and I had so many expectations!! It’s weak for me, maybe I didn’t get into the mood of the film, I don’t know

Watched
Almost a great drama about building communication between adults and children and how this helps people understand themselves better, be more open and kinder. Wonderful Joaquin Phoenix, his young partner Woody Norman and a script with an atypical structure

Watched
It seems to me that if you cut out all the interjections and sounds of formulating thoughts in dialogues from the film, you get half an hour of lowing. The intense brain-grinding to come up with the most banal answer possible, and in general the dialogues triggered me incredibly.

Watched
Excellent operator. The types of children are interesting, but not their monologues. Maybe the movie is designed for some paternal-maternal feelings – not mine. The world of the child also does not cling and does not plunge into childhood (I recalled "where the monsters live", where you penetrate). In general, boring sentimental xp

Watched
Purely festival film for critics, boring and tedious. The boy wanted to beat a hundred times. And poor Joaquin kept admonishing him and admonishing him with burning eyes). On the plus side: camera work and interviews that GG, a radio journalist, takes from teenagers all over the country.
