"This coming of age summer comedy from 2013 tells the story of a boy, Duncan, that seems uncomfortable in his own skin and struggles to fit in somewhere. Sam Rockwell is superb and reminded me of a young Robin Williams in this, fast talking with quick wit. Allison Janney also gives a standout performance. But Steve Carell plays an unlikeable butthole which was surprising. In the end, definitely a feel good film that everyone can enjoy. 8.5/10"
"So my sister kind of made me watch this movie and I'll just say it was really good. There were moments that were "awkward" and I couldn't help but laugh. The actors did an amazing job playing these characters. I've got to give credit to the casting crew. I really didn't like the mom's boyfriend, he got on my nerves alot. Great movie, highly recommend!!"
"Extremely funny, relatable, and well written. Cool cast too. Awesome soundtrack and one of my all time favorites."
