This time, I made an exception by havin an expectation bout this movie. Ofc, its coz because this is directed by the one of greatest directors in Hollywood, Steven Spielberg. Luckily, this movie beyond my expectation.

This movie is about a famz struggle with the coming-of-age theme (adolescence life to adult life). They came from a discriminated socio background because they are Jewish in the US. BUT, they are finally able to manage all the ebbs and flows.

RN, the struggle is a really great emotion to us that because of this pandemic impact never ends. Well, the struggle is perfectly delivered in this movie. This gives sentimental value to the audiences and easy to relate.

Besides, this movie gives us a warm sensation about famz and year-end vibes (Christmas & New Year's Eve). Pretty odd coz Jewish didn't celebrate this but their neighbors did it in this movie.

The story is so inspiring and revealed at a slow pace. It's inspiring coz the main char, young Sam is having an aspiring dream as a movie director inspired by his go-to cinema moments with his parents. It's inevitable truth if our life dream is really constructed since we were a kid.

Another pros, a relatable story coz great for delivering bout high school bullying and teenage kinds of stuff that is also an inevitable truth of our life exp.

Personally, this movie story is very relatable coz I always hv an aspiring dream since I was a kid and I live with a very noisy famz too. Perhaps, it is similar to this movie.

However, this movie's pace is too slow. Sometimes get bored even though it is an amazing moment. It getting worse coz this movie is more than 2 hrs.

The bottom line is a very inspiring movie! Perfectly fulfilled our year-end vibes and a Lil bit nostalgic for our teenage stuff. But, sometimes is boring, lol. Great movie to watch! This is a Steven Spielberg semi-auto-biography!

8/10.
