This movie was okay. There was some genuinely funny quips and Glenn Powell is likeable. But I don’t know if I believe him in the role. I do really enjoy him and Adria Arjona’s chemistry. They are at least fun to watch connect on screen, even if the plot itself is kind of cheesy and corny. This is an odd one from Richard Linklater for me. I couldn’t even feel his imprint.

After the Storm 2016
Great slice of life film about not living up to society's and your family's expectation. Kore-eda at his best. High rewatchablitly.

The film leaves you with you felt like you gone somewhere and these characters have real steaks.
