Top Critics' Reviews
Rotten: The film looks and feels authentic, but Duchovny has powered his undeniably personal journey with a counterfeit heart.
Rotten: Duchovny delivers a clearly heartfelt but terminally mawkish and awkward directorial debut.
Rotten: Goes from bad to unbearable in a single scene.
Rotten: As soon as Williams enters, simpering, this is a character that we wish would die a horrid death, or at least disappear. That's a problem Duchovny can't overcome.

5 stars for me

Sweet Uplifting Movie
This movie was touching. It's about this character, Tommy, growing up in the early 70's in NYC. It's one of those movies that just about everyone can find something to relate to. The ups and downs of being 13 and it's actually pretty funny. Tommy grows up in a single family home and is best friends with a mentally disabled 41 year old man. He experiences his first kiss, first dance and gains friendships. Good Family Movie!
