Review of Lady Bird (2017) by Meyers76 — 07 Feb 2018
It is very reminiscent of the innumerable amount of "coming of age tales" that have been instrumental in the sphere of popular movies. It is dissimilar enough from the legions of others to the point where it becomes an exceptional film.
It uses classic Oscar bait tactics like humor to build a strong relationship between that of the titular "Christine" and the viewer. Although a cheap way of doing, so the humor is never dry and most of the jokes hit as intended.
The film is also a lovely diorama of the teenage experience; bringing up problems and insecurities that almost every teenager has experienced at some point. It is noticeably geared toward a female viewer, however; as a guy I could still draw parallels between shared experiences with the characters.
Overall, this film is a sentimental and human journey through the senior year of a young girl.
