Review of The Kings of Summer (2013) by Bumpgirl — 06 Jun 2013
I found this movie to be well written, well acted and very funny. Extremely entertaining for teenagers and grownups alike. Definitely worth seeing. It's crazy that it has an R rating due to some language and underage drinking (OMG people use words like 'sh_t' and 14-year-olds drink beer at parties!).
Overall, I thought that while some of the characters (the cops and parents) were overdrawn in a zaney way, the circumstances and feelings were totally relatable. And anyway this is from the viewpoint of 14-year-old kids who often view their parents as absurd.
To my mind, it lent itself well to the type of humor. Overall, this is a solidly good summer movie and well worth the price of the ticket.
