My Senior Year

My Senior Year is an endearing indie coming of age film that I really enjoyed. I don't know what it is about stories about the high school experience that I connect with so much -- perhaps it's the nostalgia or just because it was such a formative time for so many of us -- but I really like this these types of films. My Senior Year grapples with a lot of the significant issues we all face in high school, but through the unique perspective of a truck driver's son starting school for the first time. My Senior Year spans a range of emotions from sweet to sad to funny at various points in the film, encompassing much of what we may have experienced, but taking it a step further in some places too that I'll leave you to see. Even when dealing with much more serious issues, My Senior Year handles them well. I'd say it's well worth your time, particularly if you're looking for something to watch while stuck sheltering in place like me.

This movie was a pleasant surprise. This film takes on a familiar subject and does a great job. The movie handles this part of our life pretty well. Everyone remembers their high school time. Good acting by Perry Chicos as the lead as he helps us navigate the ups and downs of high school. There are some nice laughs in the movie as well. Joe Carlini takes a good script and gets the most out of his actors. I recommend it for a nice night in (and aren't all nights in these days?). A well done film.

Kinda boring and that's not the worst, unprofessional acting is what I can't tolerate.

The worst acting I have seen in a very long time. I didnt even finish watching it. I have no idea how it got so many good ratings on here.

While it captures familiar high school drama tropes, this film elevates itself with some depth of emotion and a thoughtful backstory. Through this lens, the film is a satisfying exploration of the high school experience, making you connect with the lead character and empathize. While it makes some attempts to pull on your heart strings, it ultimately remains grounded in a story that is relatable and compelling.
