My Senior Year (2020)

My Senior Year: Directed by Joe Carlini. With Perry Chicos, Samantha Luskey, Don Peterson, J.R. Ritcherson. My Senior Year is a romantic comedy with some serious overtones. A coming of age love story that becomes an emotional roller coaster. Every one in high school has a senior year. For Brian Robertson it’s a ride he’ll never forget.

“This purports to be an anti-suicide movie with a bit of religion tossed in, but limited enough to keep the film from coming across as Christian. Like the person who walked away after 25 minutes and gave two stars, I was tempted. To that point the writing is stiff, the acting amateurish, the editing without sense and one can only wonder where the director was hiding out. After that, it got marginally better, but not much. Thereu0026#39;s no organic flow to the movie, story, characters or acting, but a series of staged scenes with stiff lines that often amount to speeches. And the final school scene makes no sense at all. As an anti-suicide movie, it doesnu0026#39;t make a strong impression. Overall, it seemed like a long version film school project, although it could as well been a poorly funded and thought through advocacy effort.”
