    A slice-of-life-movie set in the late 50s with interesting, realistic characters, on the brink of manhood, chewing the fat while offering glimpses of mild drama, amusing humour and well written dialogue. The young cast are splendid, most of who would go on to bigger things later in their careers. The laid-back style and relaxed atmosphere is one of the movie's strengths, but since this also leads to a lack of stuff happening - it could just as well be seen as a weakness. 6 years 6 months ago

    I understand the comparison to American Graffiti, this felt more timeless to me, whereas American Graffiti is so quintessentially '50s. It feels like this group of guys could be hanging out in any decade. Overall a fun and watchable film. 2 years 11 months ago
