The Tender Bar
A very sentimental and laid back coming of age story that, while doesn't do anything new or original, manages to be pretty charming and light in a traditional sense. It's almost as if George Clooney made the Wonder Years as a 90 minute movie, but with a bit of grit and language thrown in. I thought the performances were pretty good and it balances between being super schmaltzy and being super serious. Tye Sheridan, Ben Affleck, Briana Middleton, and Lily Rabe in particular were really good. It's such a vibe movie that I love the color grading and cinematography more than anything else in this movie which helps ground it even more. Overall, I really dug it despite how conventional it may seem.
3.5/5
