"The Way, Way Back" is a Great Film To See This Summer.

"The Way, Way Back" is a great film to see this summer. This film blew up the Sundance FIlm Festival and it is just worth seeing. It has Duncan, played by Liam James, spending his summer vacation with his mom, her boyfriend, and his mother's boyfriend's daughter. His mother, Toni Collette, and her boyfriend, Steve Carrell, thinks that Duncan should tried to make some new friends this summer maybe even a girlfriend and gain some confidence. He tries to make friends with his step sister, Stephanie, but the only he really wants to spend time with is his neighbor, Susanna, played by AnnaSophia Robb. Duncan is a troubled kid and he is trying to deal with his mother's new boyfriend and his mother and father's divorce. He takes Stephanie's bike and rides around the area and discovers a water park, called Water Wizz. He meets a man named Owen, played by Sam Rockwell. He realizes this is a place for him.

This film is so great for the summer. Liam James plays the awkward teen very well. This was his first leading role and he nailed it. Steve Carrell deserves a lot of credit also, because he was the bad guy in this film and he was fantastic. AnnaSophia Robb was also really great in this film, she played the girl next door so well. This film has such a great cast and it just was put really well together. Please go see this amazing film that came out this summer.

Grade = 92/100 = A-
