A teen fills his days with reckless summer adventures with his two pals. However, their friendship is tested when they compete over a new girl in town.
IMDB - 11 wins
This movies isn't so much a "coming of age" story as it is a glimpse into the cause and effect of various character's actions and emotions.
The movie is filmed beautifully. Something about the way it was filmed almost felt voyeur-like. It's a slow telling – people looking for action, adventure or intense drama aren't going to enjoy it. For the most part, the teens convey a believable apathy, and the angst that is presumably just under the surface stays there under a veil of boredom and is just alluded to by the cinematography.
The teen characters are solid. They perfectly embody the flippant and nonchalant attitude of that age group. Their conversations and interactions were natural, and thankfully, none of them were precocious, precious or inherently bad.
All in all, it was a very languid telling of minor actions and their major consequences.
