Never Rarely Sometimes Always

POSITIVES…

  • Simple premise and all, however not to be too cliche in saying this, but it's a very essential story that needs to be told. Educational even.

  • As far as moody teenagers goes, Sidney Flanigan plays her perfectly. She however excels at giving us some subdued acting that resonates the thoughts and emotions her character Autumn is having.

  • Talia Ryder is also excellent as Skylar, showing a confidence and strength in her role that is just perfect for her character.

  • The chemistry between Autumn and Skylar is easily one of the greatest strengths of this film.

  • Certain scenes are effectively hard to watch.

  • One extended scene in particular felt like the most important sequence in this film, and contains the meaning behind the title of the movie.

  • There's a very specific voice and point of view that dictates the story of this movie. I may not necessarily always agree with it, but I appreciate what is being presented to me.

  • New York. I liked the way this movie showcased the city. Felt real and not glamorized.

NEGATIVES…

  • A little slow moving. Meanders quite a bit.

  • There are some aspects of this movie that's way too on the nose for my taste.

  • Subject matter may not be to everyone's interest.
