It was great and unforgettable, absolutely classic and heartwarming
This compelling film depicts adolescent friendship in a way that’s poignant, funny, and haunting. The actors’ performances are brilliant.
I can see why this is a classic. I’m not a huge fan of dramas, in general… but this is spellbinding. Definitely a must see!
One of the great coming of age movies. Great young cast
A very true depiction of childhood friendship. Tho we werent all looking for dead bodies. Amazing.
Quintessential coming of age childhood friendship story, the young cast are excellent and really deliver through the raw emotional dialogue
Interesting coming of age story. Many different themes with a focus of friendship and bonding
Very engaging and beautifully acted. Also, that scene with the leeches is fucking traumatizing.
This movie was such a good coming of age movie that it stands as one of my favorite movies of all time. I would 100% suggest it to anyone.
One of the best movies of all time. A movie I will never forget! RIP River Phoenix.
