The Way Way Back

45th of 365.

Sam Rockwell is all that is right with the world. He is just such a charismatic character that has yet to find the perfect role to blow him up into superstardom. If you haven't watched Moon, directed by David Bowie's son, do so immediately. It is a fantastic movie.

Nat Faxon and Jim Rash wrote and directed this coming of age tale that takes place in a summer ocean town full of summer homes. Duncan is a 14-year old kid struggling with confidence and his mother's asshole boyfriend played by Steve Carrell. 

Steve Carrell pretends to be a father-figure with Duncan, but he doesn't quite try to meet the halfway. Duncan is at a difficult time and his method to motivate is just to chastise until the kid does something about it. 

Support this movie, it really is the type of movie more people need to see.

Judgement: See it in the Theater
