I hope this is able to do well. It sounds like it could be pretty good, and I'm definitely rooting for Beanie Feldstein. May is a crowded month, but I definitely see what Annapurna is going for by giving this a wide release. It's got a lot to conquer, though.

Getting rave reviews out of SXSW.

[Rebeccas]

Sounds like it could be this year's Blockers.

From the main perspective of the daughters.

I recently finally saw Short Term 12 not too long ago and that movie's cast is amazing viewed from a 2019 lens. Larson and Malek would go on to become Oscar winners within a few years after (and of course the former is now Captain Marvel) and Stanfield has been on the cusp of a major breakthrough. The Social Network is the only other movie I can immediately think of from this decade (at least the first half of it) that in retrospect probably jumpstarted a whole bunch of careers.

This is getting pretty amazing reviews and it looks really funny. Looking forward to it for sure.

[Hatebox]

I won't see this but good for Wilde. She was box office poison as an actress but seems to have found her feet here. 

[DAR]

I first saw Dever in Justified.  No surprise she was great in that.   Hell she was even good in the few episodes of Last Man Standing that I've seen.

Don't know when it was published, but this is getting early access shows (not from Fandango tho) on Friday the 17th at 8PM. Hoping I'll have time to see it then.

[Incarnadine]

Just starting to see TV spots for this.

 

It looks pretty good and the TV spots are really playing up the fact it's still 100% at RT (50-0 so far)

 

This looks like a good movie to see between John Wick 3 and Godzilla 2.😎

[JB33]

Still at 100% on RT after 52 reviews. Wonder if this will translate to the box office, especially given comedies are struggling to make bank, no matter the quality. Hopefully a lot of folks check it out on Memorial Day weekend to keep the box office diverse and fresh.

Will definitely check this out, wasn’t on my radar but those are good reviews

Same! I wasn't even aware of this film until last week, but those glowing reviews have definitely pique my interest. Sounds like a strong little indie.
