There were some great performances from Shia LaBeouf and Noah Jupe and powerful moments between these characters as father and son.
Unfortunately, the film suffers from not having a clear story. There was no plot, suspense, or structure. This isn't inherently a bad thing if ALL the scenes are strong, but the weaker scenes were boring and never moved the story forward(particularly the scenes with Lucas Hedges in rehab).
The film read as a bit incoherent, messy, and indulgent. If you're curious about Shia LaBeouf, you'll love the movie.
The sad thing is that I love Alma Harel's prior documentary films, which have a magical quality this film totally lacked. The cinematography was also unimpressive. The film relies on a dreamy quality that isn't captured well.
All in all, a disappointing film.
