Review of Boyhood (2014) by Luke M — 26 Sep 2015
Boyhood's flaws pale in comparison to the remarkable accomplishment that Richard Linklater has achieved. Feeling less like a movie than an insight into the life of someone I know, at several points in the movie I could see references to my own childhood, which takes place almost simultaneously with Mason's.
The cast is excellent - Arquette and Hawke are brilliant, and so are newcomers Ellar Coltrane and especially Lorelei Linklater. Boyhood is like nothing else I have ever seen, and I doubt I will again.
