'What's My Name Again' comes alive from the opening title sequence, taking you back to a simpler time of surf, VW bugs, and the familiar muddiness of stepping into adulthood.

The film expertly navigates the very internal, very human condition elements of identity, character, and self-discovery in a way that empathizes us with the ensemble cast and leaves us questioning whether or not any of us 'really' have it all figured out.

First-time director Spencer Zender is fearless with his visual story-telling, finding comfort in the discomfort, while accomplishing one of the most challenging aspects of filmmaking -- communicating characters' stakes to the audience's consciousness. In short, it's compelling because WE CARE.

Really great movie. The soundtrack and cinematography are really well done for a period piece in the 80s, and absolutely beautiful to watch.

The characters all have their own baggage they work through. The film is funny, heartwarming, and thought-provoking. It is a great reminder that even though as a family we all have our own unique challenges, we have a shared history and humanity.

The acting was top-notch, especially Ryan Winn as the lead character. I loved every scene with Bo and Karen.

The script was really well-written and engaging. The music set the tone, and the struggles were relatable.

Definitely worth a watch!
