Boyhood is impressive in how it took twelve years to film, cleverly showing the protagonist and his family naturally grow onscreen, and it's well acted. Yet even with moments that I could relate too, nothing truly stood out or viscerally/psychologically engaged me.

Character development is here, but older mason was dull and pretentious, and by the time Boyhood's credits rolled I was pleased to have experienced it, not blown away, making it a fantastic film making idea that won't leave a post-viewing impact.
