A charming, aimless film about the aimless. It plays like a nuanced MTV reality show (an oxymoron, perhaps, but you get the idea). Jan 10, 2013 | Rating: 2/4 | Full Review…

Directors Elizabeth Mims and Jason Tippet let their subjects meander, and instead unify their movie through tight control of tone, winding up with an elegiac portrait of teen America. Dec 14, 2012 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

Captures the essence of modern teenage life with warmth, honesty, humor and compassion. It's equally endearing, relatable and entertaining. Dec 10, 2012 | Rating: 9.0/10 | Full Review…

Tippet and Mims's achievement is to reveal that culture, subtly, achingly, by allowing those who grew up under its influence to live and narrate their lives in the only terms they know. Dec 7, 2012 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…
