Review of The Way Way Back (2013) by Jragujaisagleek — 08 Jun 2014

I can’t believe this movie isn’t popular with the teens.

I loved how this movie, while is a teenage movie, also appeal to the adults without being chessy.

In fact, this isn’t a romantic movie at all. This is a movie about enjoying things you never thought you would enjoy.

I relate to the main character Duncan. I don’t blame him for being such a smug because the people around him are a bunch of scum anyway.

I didn’t expect A-list cast in this movie. It’s great seeing them collaborating in this movie because they did such a wonderful job portraying their roles. The direction was great too.

The themes in the movie did a good job without romanticizing it. I guess that’s why it’s not popular with the teens because we teenagers are hopeless romantics.

Lastly, the script was brilliant. You need a good script to make a good movie. And I am so relived to know the same scriptwriters directed the movie.

Overall, while it’s something I would not watch again for a long time, I would recommend everyone to watch this movie if they want to be happy for just two hours.
