Review of Lady Bird (2017) by Moviemitch96 — 17 Nov 2017
This was without a doubt a charming and wonderfully acted, albeit a bit been there, done that, by the numbers coming-of-age dramedy from indie darling Greta Gerwig (an impressive directorial debut). Saoirse Ronan shines like usual as the titular nicknamed character, along with honest and often times heartfelt performances from her parents played by Laurie Metcalf and Tracy Letts.
The writing and direction from Gerwig was witty and spot on quite often. However, like I said, it didn't really transcend or bring too much new to the table in terms of high school/coming-of-age comedies.
Despite this however, the film contained a lot of heart and undeniable charm and humor throughout overall. Definitely worth seeking out.
