Boyhood

CriticsCritics: 99
AudienceAudience: 7.7

A divorced couple works to raise their young son as he grows from a six-year-old in first grade to a teenager nearing adulthood. Over twelve years, the story follows the changing bonds between the boy and his parents, and the ordinary moments that shape family life.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like reflective coming-of-age stories built from everyday family moments and the gradual passage of time; Not for you if you need a fast pace or a strong, continuous plot.
