Reviews
A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
