Review of Captain Fantastic (2016) by J. B — 16 Jul 2016

A summer sleeper that's somehow managed to sneak in under the radar, but thankfully so. This unconventional family drama addresses a host of poignant issues (some flattering, some critical) on both ends of the social and ideological spectra, raising valid points for consideration and debate (one can only hope, though, that a currently polarized America will have the patience to take the time to listen to each side).

With gorgeous cinematography, an engaging script, subtle humor and a number of genuinely moving moments, this seasonal surprise is well worth a look.
